Tuesday tips 6-16

This weeks Tuesday Tips!

Motivation comes from within all of us.  Other people can inspire us by their actions or words, but only we can motivate ourselves.  How?  As the Nike slogan says ‘Just do it!’  When you start getting results you will be motivated!

When doing a face-to-face presentation to a couple, you must give them both attention, alternate eye contact between them, even if one of them seems to be passive.

Fear can be crippling. Fear usually comes from ignorance, be a student of your industry, always be learning new techniques to expand your business.

It’s not what happens to you in a single day, week or even a single month that matters in business.  You are in business for the long haul, it is unrealistic and potentially damaging to expect ‘overnight success’.  The cumulative effects are what matters!

Remember, Promote Yourself!

3-24-09 Tuesday Tips

March 24th, 2009

Here are this weeks Tuesday Tips!

  1. There is no such thing as a bad prospecting call. Every ‘no’ leads you closer to a ‘yes’ and every call will help you improve your communication skills.
  2. Fear of loss is a greater motivator than opportunity for gain.
    Tell your prospects that before they can join your program they will
    have to meet certain requirements.
  3. Never let failure go to waste, if you learn anything, it is not a failure!
  4. We get what we expect–not what we hope for.  Focus on good expectations.
  5. If your prospect does not have genuine interest in what you have to say, either create interest or just end the presentation.  By taking away the opportunity to listen you may spur interest that way, it puts YOU in the position of power.
  6. Share your sales and recruiting experiences with others who may benefit by your success. It will train them and remind you what you did right.
  7. Never let an unsuccessful person sell you on his system for doing things.  This being said, inexperienced doesn’t necessarily equal unsuccessful.

FEAR

March 7th, 2009

FEAR - The GREAT MOTIVATOR

 

What motivates you?  Stop and think about it, what does it take to really motivate you.

 

For most people it is not as easy as it sounds. Many people find themselves motivated by failure.  They are afraid that they might fail at a new endeavor, be it a job or a new business opportunity.  Many times so severely that they become paralyzed to the point of inaction, so they don’t even try.

 

Other people are also motivated by fear; in this case it is fear of loosing something, such as money, job, or in today’s economy their house.  In this case fear is good and can be a good motivator to get a better job, or start a new business.  Or to finally take action in that business you have been “trying out”

 

The Fear of Success, yes the fear of success!  At first that sounds strange doesn’t it?  How can anybody be afraid to succeed at something? 

 

Well it is real, and to some people, just as paralyzing. They may think “I don’t deserve success” or “I’m not good enough” and not even try.  Many of us, while we were growing up constantly heard negative connotations about money, and the people that had money.  Sub consciously we have been programmed to think that way, “MONEY IS EVIL”

 

What do we do to change this way of thinking?  Look around, think of all the good things you can do with money, not only for your family, but church, charities, the list goes on.

 

I have found that spending time daily on self-improvement is a great way to start.  Invest in yourself, there are fantastic dividends to be paid.  There are so many books on the subject, I would start will some of the classics, such as ‘Think and Grow Rich’ by Napoleon Hill.  Many times while I’m driving I’ll turn off the radio and listen to audiobooks, a good way to consolidate time.

 

Spend some time to find out what your fears are, only them can you face them, and conquer them, and receive what you truly deserve SUCCESS!
