What You Choose Is What You Get.

You can have a PHD or an MBA but unless you have a post graduate degree in a discipline called common sense you are not going to get to utopia, trouble with common sense is that it isn’t as common as it used to be!

In New York a couple of weeks ago, I was in a yellow cab and the driver from Harlem said to me. “Sir you have an accent where are you from” I said I was from the Rainbow nation of South Africa 6 time zones away and that it was now 6 o’ clock at night right now. To which he replied “Get the F… outta here that’s not possible it’s only 12 o’ clock. (and the Americans want to protect the world, God help us)

Education and Change comes from within, It all begins with the power of one, what you choose is what you get. Aristotle once said “Excellence is not an act it is a habit” Change is up to you, if you want a better life, job or more income, if you want success, you want riches look at the mug in the mirror and say “What do I really want” and make the choices that are going to give you exactly that

If you want to be successful walk hand in hand, side by side with successful people, seek their wisdom.

If you want to be happy hang around happy people, If you want to be rich find out what poor people are doing and don’t do it, it’s not that complicated.

A little advice, if you follow this advice your life will be rich with substance and style with a future brighter than the past. Who you spend time with is who you become. Spend time with great people they will rub off on you, if you spend time with positive, energized people you will find that they will rub off on you. If you spend time with ZOMBIES, in NO TIME you are a Zombie in the making. So who you spend time with is very important.

KOI fish from Japan; you put it in a fish bowl, feed it all the food and nourishment you want and it will not grow more than 2 inches in size. You take the same fish throw it in a pond and in NO TIME the KOI grows to more than a foot long.

Moral of the story; KOI Fish grows proportionately to its environment and so do you, and so do you! What you choose is what you get.

21st Century Selling

June 5, 2007

The 21st century is unforgiving for a man or woman who is not confident. It is the confident who make life worth living, who achieve, who reach their goals, who are climbing the ladder of success, who are going to have the sales figures other people only dream about.

 

How do you become confident, wealthy? The answer is simple Confidence leads to confidence. We are not talking about the rah, rah, rah confidence, not the confidence you get by reading or listening to sales tapes and secret closing techniques. That is all wonderful; we are talking about the confidence that comes out of REAL STUFF, doing stuff that you are good at so that confidence grows out of Competence.

 

Competence comes from knowledge and comes from experience doing it over and over and over again in the right way and the right time with the right people.

 

Where confidence leads you to is COMMITMENT and wisdom.

 

See, you make a decision with your brain, you make a commitment with your heart; it must be driven from within, power comes from inside out.

 

So the 21st century is actually unforgiving to the people who cannot communicate, what we are talking about is not just talking but connecting. 

 

A quick exercise

1. Next time you make contact with someone, smile only with your eyes. No words, nothing just look at them and feel good.

2. Then meet someone else say hello and shake their hand

 

3. Greet a person as a long lost friend you haven’t seen in 5 years, hug them, be excited, think of all the good things you are going to do.

 

Doing 1 feels nice, doing 2 feels NICER, Doing 3 is FANTASTIC

 

With the third exercise you went beyond mere communication beyond mere words and you connected with mind, body and soul.

 

Therefore the essence of effective communication rarely depends on words, or merely eye contact. It exudes connective ness.

 

You know how it works, you sometimes meet someone for the first time and you just “clicked” / connected and somehow when you connect with people you do not have to sell them anything or sell them ON anything.

 

Somehow when you connect with people they want to stand in line wanting to get what you and I have in our lives as they want to have and feel it too.

 

So the magic, the eternal elixir is in our ability to connect not just communicate.

   

Everyone is a salesman they sell themselves, on them, their ideas, their careers and their family. However they buy you first, your ideas second and your products or services third
