RLPro Advantage

RLPro Advantage My focus is to help professionals like yourself turn stumbling blocks into stepping stones and obstacles into opportunities for success. Been there, know that.

I got tired of seeing people struggle to reach their next-level career goals, so I created RLPro Advantage to help them clarify their purpose, motivation, and direction — so they can grow with confidence. Not long ago, someone asked me, "What is RLPro Advantage all about?"

I told them:

RLPro Advantage is for someone like you...who want FREEDOM and FULFILMENT in a new career or are ready to move

into your next great opportunity adventure. I imagine you are a person who has reached a stage in your career where you want more. That is why I started RLPro Advantage. A little history about that:

As an Army Recruiter, I helped hundreds of young men and women get their career start. After 20 years of military service, I retired to start on a new career path. I have had a few jobs since retiring as I searched for my civilian niche. Two of the most rewarding jobs I have held after retirement was as a Benefits Counselor for the Health and Human Services and Case Manager for a Non-profit Veterans Organization. I really enjoyed those opportunities. I remember sitting on my patio one day reminising over my lifetime experiences. I realized I have always had a love for helping people get to their next level – whatever that may mean to them. Along the way I developed this Career Counseling Philosophy:

It doesn't matter to me where where you are when I first meet you – what matters to me is what I can do to help you get closer to where you want to be. I found myself not being a SAGE ON A STAGE...teaching you how to be, what to know or how to do. But someone who is like a GUIDE ON THE SIDE...walking step by step with you providing insight and guidance along your way. Like one writer says – when you help others get what they want – sooner or later you will get what you want. And that has always been my focus – helping others succeed. Another writer once said: Success is the progressive realization of a worthy goal

So for me: success means having the opportunity to share what I know with others in a manner that helps them along their way. And when those opportunities come along I see them as “In the Middle of the Chapter” Encounters (ask me about that later on). From that thought came this name – RLPro Consulting short for Robert L Proctor Consulting:

my first name is Robert which means Bright Fame. And the first three letters of my last name tell you what kind of person I strive to be – I’m a Natural Born PRO…

I don’t know if you are picking up what I am putting down, right now, but let me say it like this:

my strategic desire for RLPro Advantage is to use my abilities, skills, and knowledge to help you turn your ideas into opportunities for success. So what's the best time for you and me to meet...

The question isn’t just: “How much did I make?”

It’s: “What did my money build?”
“Who did it serve?”
“What will remain?”

Your Mind Is Always Listening

(How Your RAS Shapes the Life You See)

Here’s something most people never realize:

Your mind is always looking for proof of whatever story you’re telling yourself.

If you keep saying, “Nothing ever works out for me,” your brain goes to work trying to prove you right. It notices every setback. Every inconvenience. Every delay. And before long, it feels like life really is stacked against you.

But it’s not that life suddenly got worse.

It’s that your brain is doing its job.

There’s a part of your mind called the Reticular Activating System—the RAS. Its job is to filter reality. It decides what gets your attention and what gets ignored. And it takes its cues from what you believe, what you focus on, and what you keep repeating.

So if your inner dialogue leans negative, your RAS highlights the negative. Not because it hates you—but because it’s trying to help you stay consistent with the story you’ve chosen.

Now here’s the good news.

It works the other way too.

When you start asking better questions—
“How could this get better?”
“What’s one good thing happening right now?”
“Where did I make progress today?”

Your RAS starts scanning for those answers instead.

You begin to notice small wins. Quiet growth. Opportunities you would’ve missed before. Not because life magically changed overnight—but because your focus did.

This is why Scripture talks so much about renewing the mind. What you dwell on shapes what you see. And what you see shapes how you live.

So be mindful of the story you’re telling yourself.

Because today’s thoughts quietly shape tomorrow’s reality.

And sometimes, the breakthrough isn’t out there waiting on you—
it’s already around you, waiting for your mind to notice it.

🔥 The 9 Personalities of Bad Bosses… Who Actually Think They’re GREAT Bosses

Ever worked for someone who believed they were a leadership legend… while the whole team silently prayed for transfer papers? 👀
Yeah—those bosses. Let’s talk about them.

1. The “Open Door” Gatekeeper

Door wide open. Mind completely closed.

2. The Micromanager Motivator

Calls it “coaching.” Feels more like surveillance.

3. The Delegation Dodger

Teamwork means you do the work; they take the lunch break.

4. The Feedback Phantom

Missing when you need help—magically present when it’s time to critique.

5. The Credit Collector

Your sweat + their spotlight = their promotion.

6. The Mood Swing Maestro

Every day’s a mystery, and not the fun kind.

7. The “Family” Cult Leader

“We’re family!”—translation: free overtime and emotional guilt.

8. The Visionary Without a Map

Big ideas, no ex*****on. Guess who must figure it out? (Hint: not them.)

9. The Overconfidence Commander

Thinks they’re Moses leading you to the promised land… but you’re still stuck in the wilderness.

🔥 Do You Feel Stuck on Your Career Journey?

You know you’re capable of more —
✅ More impact
✅ More income
✅ More purpose
But no matter how hard you push, you’re still in the same place.

Here’s what that often looks like:

✅ Unclear Direction
Not knowing what steps to take — new skills, new roles, new connections… it all feels confusing.

✅ Self-Doubt
Wondering if you’re really qualified or ready for what’s next.

✅ Lack of Support
No mentors, no coach, no community to help guide you.

✅ Feeling Overlooked
Watching others move ahead and wondering, “Why not me?”

✅ Career Fatigue
What you’re doing no longer challenges or excites you.

✅ Fear of Change
You want growth, but fear making the wrong move or failing.

You might hear yourself thinking…
👉 “I know I’m meant for more, but I don’t know how to get there.”
👉 “I feel stuck.”
👉 “I’m working hard, but it’s not opening new doors.”
👉 “I’ve hit a ceiling.”

If this is you… you’re not alone.
There is a path forward — and you don’t have to walk it alone.
Big growth starts with one brave step. 🚀

✅ Why the “Action” Step Matters (The A in HEART™)

In interviews, your story means nothing if you don’t clearly communicate what YOU did.

Most people describe the situation…
and the outcome…
but never show the interviewer their specific contribution.

And that’s where hiring decisions are made —
in your action.

Why Emotion Matters (The “E” in HEART™)

Emotion is the bridge that helps hiring managers feel your story — not just hear it.

Facts inform → EMOTION persuades.

Most candidates only give facts:

“We had a tight deadline.
I worked on a solution.
We hit our target.”

True? Yes.
Memorable? No.
Impactful? Not really.

What makes a story stick is how much the listener can relate.

Emotion shows:
✅ What was at stake
✅ Why the moment mattered
✅ Your humanness
✅ Your leadership under pressure

It adds weight to your story.
