										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Whether you are face-to-face <em>(with a mask on)</em> or on the phone, talking with prospects can be a nerve-racking experience.</strong> You&#8217;re concerned about what to say and more importantly how to say say it. All the while the potential prospect is talking way but you can&#8217;t hear a thing because you&#8217;re too busy waiting for an &#8220;<strong>in</strong>&#8221; to pitch the sale or say something interesting to catch their attention&#8230;</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 18px;">Has that happened to you before or is it just me that has made these kinds of sales mistakes?</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Here&#8217;s how to engage in conversation while talking with prospects easily and discover 4 crucial pieces of information you <strong><u>must know</u></strong> before talking with prospects about your (business or customer) solutions.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">This way you eliminate objections and rejection by only talking with prospects (your target market) but never suspects (the others) about your offer.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><u><strong>Here&#8217;s What You Need To Know</strong></u></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 18px;">#1. Does this person have a problem?</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Ask a question to uncover <i>IF</i> your potential prospect has a problem with their current situation.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 18px;">#2. What is the level of desire to change it?</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Not everyone who has a problem has the level of desire needed to mentally sustain themselves through the entire process. That will not serve you nor them very well even if they do start, they will drop off quickly. I know you&#8217;ve probably experienced this already.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 18px;">#3. Can you solve the type of problem they have?</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">If their problem within the scope of your expertise or knowledge you are in a better position to help them. In order to sustain a disciplined effort to achieve anything, a high level of desire is necessary. They&#8217;ve got to be hungry and looking.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 18px;">#4. Are they <i>prepared</i> (time, money, etc.) to solve it?</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">All four elements need to be present before you even start thinking about introducing your products or services. When you are marketing your business online all of those things are taken care of by your marketing funnel so only the best-qualified candidates end up in your inbox!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">On the Internet, people are not simply browsing like they do in a mall. They are looking for a specific solution to a specific problem like needing more leads and more money. They&#8217;re using specific keywords associated with their needs and wants like &#8220;automated lead generation&#8221;, causes of, and &#8220;cure athletes foot&#8221;.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 18px;">By the time they make it to your website, they have already taken care of #1 and #2. If you do a good job on demonstrating you&#8217;re capable of #3, #4 will be answered in the form of more sales, more list subscribers, referrals, opt-ins for free consultations and repeat buyers, etc.</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><u><strong>How Does It Work Offline?</strong></u></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">When you&#8217;re in a people business like direct sales and network marketing that high-touch interaction is key to your success. You have got to be able to uncover these 4 core elements. This is done through talking with prospects about three areas of their life:</span></p>
<ul>
<li><strong><span style="font-size: 18px;">Their past history</span></strong></li>
<li><strong><span style="font-size: 18px;">Their present moment</span></strong></li>
<li><strong><span style="font-size: 18px;">Their future desires</span></strong></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Often times potential prospects don&#8217;t qualify to be invited to our team based on the information gathered but we can feel so hard-pressed to recruit someone we persist in!</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 18px;">This leads to disappointment on both sides in the form of rejection for you and an annoyance to your prospect.</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">When you&#8217;ve found there is a problem you can solve, and a certain level of interest in solving it, your solution becomes a natural extension of your conversation to explore whether your solutions will work for them.</span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Selling Success is not only determined by your knowledge of the sales cycle, selling strategies, sales secrets or even conversational skills. As important as these things are, your personal emotions will often determine your level of attainment and financial success in your selling career and in other areas of your life. Regrettably, many sales training books and courses ignore this area completely.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">In these 8 articles, we have given you some strategies that will help give you the edge in order to Sell at Mastery! While these articles are primarily focused on the sales profession, there are so many of these concepts that cross over into everyday living. This is article 8 in the &#8220;Are You Emotionally Ready?&#8221; series. We hope you have found this series educational and most of all useful to your financial future!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Have Faith. We am not referring here to what some would call religious faith but we&#8217;re not discounting that either. What we&#8217;re referring to is altering a basic thought pattern that many are saddled with in their minds and consequently, in their careers and lives.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">We are suggesting that we work to eliminate these three career limiting concepts from our mental vocabularies. The super successful in all walks of life have done so already. You can too. The three concepts are <strong>Try, Hope, Believe</strong>. Why in the world would we suggest that these words that sound so nice are actually career and life limiters? We will look at each word in a little more depth to find the answer.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Try is defined as to attempt to do</strong>. My trusty thesaurus gives synonyms such as endeavor, struggle, strive, seek and make an effort. All are very positive and noble I suppose. These words share two things in common. They suggest action which is a good thing and the possibility of failure which is definitely not a good thing. Therefore do not embrace the word try. It is not a confidence building word.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Hope is defined as to feel that something desired may happen.</strong> Again, the thesaurus provides synonyms such as anticipate, wish, look forward to and dream which all are feel good sounding words but once again there is a sense of doubt attached. I might just add that the opposite of hope is despair. Hope may be actually weaker in nature than the word try because it does not even involve action while it definitely allows for the possibility of failure. Is it a confidence builder? I don&#8217;t think so.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Believe is defined as to have confidence in the truth, the existence, or the reliability of something,</strong> although without absolute proof that one is right in doing so. People have the tendency to believe in what others have told them. A belief is quite like superstition which is defined as an irrational, but usually deep-seated belief in the effects of a specific action or ritual, especially in the likelihood that good or bad luck or result will occur from performing it.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Believing in success is much more beneficial than not believing, however, it still has a hint of irrationality to it. That brings us back to the concept of having faith.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Faith is much stronger than belief. Faith is total unfaltering trust.</strong> Faith is having complete and confident expectation in the outcome. Faith is the complete removal of doubt from one&#8217;s mind. You might ask &#8220;How do you obtain faith without first obtaining absolute proof?&#8221;. You do it simply through preparation. You develop self-confidence by knowing that you are prepared for success. You have done all you can up to this point. Then you realize that preparedness never ends and success is ongoing. There is no failure. There are only learning opportunities and life-path alterations.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">This type of faith is what is at the heart of all great success stories. How is your strength of faith in relation to your level of preparedness? If you are prepared, you can be confident and expect success!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">We hope you have enjoyed this 8 Part series on the Art of Successful Selling.  Go back and read all the past 7 articles again, then begin to reap your personal and financial rewards.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Good Selling and success to you, because &#8220;Getting Paid is Good!!&#8221;</strong></span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Selling Success is not only determined by your knowledge of the sales cycle, selling strategies, sales secrets or even conversational skills. As important as these things are, your personal emotions will often determine your level of attainment and financial success in your selling career and in other areas of your life. Regrettably, many sales training books and courses ignore this area completely.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">In this series of 8 articles, we will give you some strategies that will help give you the edge in order to <strong>Sell at Mastery</strong>! While these articles are primarily focused on the sales profession, there are so many of these concepts that cross over into everyday living. This is article 7 in the &#8220;Are You Emotionally Ready?&#8221; series. We invite you to discover all 8.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Adopt a life of sharing and service.</strong> Examine the lives of the majority of those who achieved considerable financial rewards and/or considerable recognition (fame) from society. They usually have one important thing in common. Most will tell you that this has led to their success. It is what they will be most remembered for after they are gone. They have adopted a life of sharing and service to others at some level.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">We all have something we can share or offer up in service to others. We need do this for some very good reasons, not least of which is that it helps us feel good. No doubt you have heard the age-old saying, It is better to give than to receive. Have you really thought about what that refers to?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Primarily it refers to how giving or serving others makes us feel, which is very good overall. However, there is a deeper message hidden there. The statement implies that if you can <strong><u>afford</u> </strong>to give something away willingly you must have an abundance of it. Further, if you have an abundance and are grateful for that abundance, the source that supplied it in the first place will provide you with more and more of it. This wisdom has been proclaimed through the ages from a variety of sources.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">It has been called the<strong> &#8216;power of ten,&#8217; &#8216;the power of tithing&#8217;, &#8216;you reap what you sow&#8217;</strong> and <strong>&#8216;you get back what you give out&#8217;</strong> but the message is unmistakable and the message is heeded by the most successful among us to attract more into their lives.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">You may feel that you do not have that much to share or give away, especially in the money department, so we will leave the discussion of money alone for a moment and suggest other things that you can easily share beginning with the simplest.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>&#8211; Share a Smile:</strong> Who among us can&#8217;t share a smile? Consciously and deliberately start sharing smiles and see how many smiles come back to you along with friendlier customers you are serving, or better still, more attentive service from those serving you. Think about how many lives you can brighten throughout their day, even if it is for a brief moment.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>&#8211; Share Your Time:</strong> Most of us can choose to find a couple of spare hours each week that we can volunteer to give in the service of others in some capacity. There are countless worthwhile projects and causes. Pick one or two that you have some passion for and get involved. You will feel great and your efforts will have a positive ripple effect on many around you.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>&#8211; Share Your Talents:</strong> Everyone has talents. These are things that you are good at and are passionate about. You benefit by sharing these talents in the service of others through your work and in your private life. When you share your talents you will be rewarded with gratitude, happiness and financial gain. The more you share, the more rewards you will receive.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>&#8211; Share Encouragement:</strong> This costs nothing yet it can create so many benefits. Everyone is trying to do better in their lives. At any point in time everyone is doing the best they can at the moment. Yet everyone is capable of doing more. The ultimate fuel for advancing in life is encouragement not criticism. Unfortunately, it is criticism that most people share. Encourage your spouse, a child, a co-worker, a friend or a stranger. It will make your day and theirs.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>&#8211; Share Money:</strong> Last on the list is share your money. How much of it you share is up to you. If you hoard you are sending a message of lack or scarcity to the universal source. Sharing sends a message of abundance. Share money without any guilt that you should have done more. Why? You can never have enough to give away that will fix all the ills in the world. Just do your part, as you are able, and allow yourself to feel good.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Look for the last articles in this series tomorrow, then begin to reap your personal and financial rewards.</span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Selling Success is not only determined by your knowledge of the sales cycle, selling strategies, sales secrets or even conversational skills. As important as these things are, your personal emotions will often determine your level of attainment and financial success in your selling career and in other areas of your life. Regrettably, many sales training books and courses ignore this area completely.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">In this series of 8 articles, we will give you some strategies that will help give you the edge in order to Sell at Mastery! While these articles are primarily focused on the sales profession, there are so many of these concepts that cross over into everyday living. This is article 6 in the &#8220;Are You Emotionally Ready?&#8221; series. We invite you to discover all 8.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>In this article, we will explore an area that many people are afraid of today and seriously ignore in their lives.</strong> They experience enormous frustration and anxiety as a result of failing to understand its importance.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Express genuine gratitude for everything you have or receive into your life. Do this at every opportunity.</strong> Why? There are a variety of reasons. I will share five of my favorites with you here.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>1-</strong> It feels good. To feel good is the reason that we do most of what we choose to do in life. So, why not express gratitude to feel good? <strong>It is virtually impossible to feel genuinely grateful for something and feel bad at the same time.</strong> Therefore it makes sense to give thanks at every opportunity, doesn&#8217;t it? Our advice is to look for opportunities everywhere.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>2- What you appreciate will appreciate in value.</strong> In other words it will grow. It has been shown that when you think about something, or focus your attention on it, it will grow. A simple example would be when you express thanks for a gift from a friend, chances are that another gift will follow at some point in time. However, if a gift is accepted and no thanks is given or gratitude shown, the chances that another gift will follow is definitely diminished.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>That makes sense, doesn&#8217;t it? After all, why would someone continue to favor you with something that you aren&#8217;t grateful to receive? Hmm.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>3- Expressing gratitude spreads joy into the world.</strong> Make no mistake about it, everyone, absolutely everyone, likes to be thanked. It makes them feel good too. It&#8217;s very easy to spread some joy in the world just by expressing thanks. Have you noticed how fewer and fewer people are saying thank you, even after someone has spent money with them? Is that the concept of entitlement rearing its ugly head or what?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>4- It curbs greed and anxiety.</strong> In our opinion, this point is huge. When people do not express gratitude for what they have and what they have received in the past they develop the feeling of lack in their lives. They feel anxious and they develop a sense of greed, not simply a healthy desire for more which often leads to some serious behavioral issues. When someone is always grateful they will attract much more abundance, at all levels, into their lives.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>The feeling of lack breeds more lack. The feeling of abundance breeds more abundance.</strong> When you feel you have abundance are you likely to feel greedy or anxious about anything? On the other hand, if you feel something is missing in your life, doesn&#8217;t that create anxiety and stress?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Eliminate the stress and greed in your life by showing and feeling gratitude for what you have and what you continue to receive. <strong>Some call this the basis for The Universal Law of Attraction.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>5- It sends a strong message to the ultimate source of your abundance.</strong> It does not matter whether you care to look at it scientifically or spiritually, there is a source much more powerful than we are as individuals. We draw on this source for our abundance or our blessings, if you prefer to use that term.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Whether you express gratitude out loud or think it silently you are, in fact, sending a strong positive message (communicating with) the source. Consequently, you will receive more. If you send messages of lack that is, complain and grumble, you will get more of what you are focusing on, lack.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">We find it fascinating how many salespeople or service people don&#8217;t take the time to simply <strong>say thank you after someone has honored them with their business.</strong> These are the first people to wonder why customers and their job security are slipping away. Once you begin to express genuine gratitude at every opportunity, you will most likely be amazed at how good you begin to feel and how your luck begins to change for the better.</span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Selling Success is not only determined by your knowledge of the sales cycle, selling strategies, sales secrets or even conversational skills. As important as these things are, your personal emotions will often determine your level of attainment and financial success in your selling career and in other areas of your life. Regrettably, many sales training books and courses ignore this area completely.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">We can imagine the e-mail backlash now. This subject tends to ignite reaction and discord from those who want to maintain the status quo. The status quo has served them for years. Changing it will likely cost them a lot of money. They resist anytime anyone tries to challenge one of the world&#8217;s most powerful control ideas. That is, the absurd notion that anyone is unworthy by design or circumstance.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Lose the feeling of unworthiness.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Many, dare we say most, individuals wrestle with self-esteem issues every single day of their lives. They feel that they are somehow unworthy of success. Why do they feel this way? Because other people have told them that they are unworthy or that they do not measure up to someone else&#8217;s standard.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>The spreading of this nonsensical idea of unworthiness is one of the greatest frauds perpetrated on mankind.</strong> It is total nonsense and will stop you from reaching your true potential. Of course you are worthy! <strong>Who is more worthy than you are and why would they be?</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Face it. The only people who will tell you that you are unworthy are those who want to exercise power and absolute control over you or perhaps want to tap into your money for their gain. If you are looking for success in life, do not let them sell you this bogus bill of goods.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">There are certainly those who will use religion to push the notion that you are unworthy. This article is not meant to ignite a religious debate. I will only say that to my understanding, these religious based teachings relate to spiritual issues and opinions, not issues of this world.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">You are worthy! <strong>You are worthy! You are worthy!</strong> But please also understand this concept. <em><strong>You are not more or less worthy than anyone else.</strong></em> You have the right and perhaps even the obligation to pursue your happiness and your dreams. Lose any feelings of unworthiness because those feelings will cause you to discriminate against yourself so that you might never test your upper limits.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Look for the other articles in this series, then begin to reap your personal and financial rewards.</span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Selling Success is not only determined by your knowledge of the sales cycle, selling strategies, sales secrets or even conversational skills. As important as these things are, your personal emotions will often determine your level of attainment and financial success in your selling career and in other areas of your life. Regrettably, many sales training books and courses ignore this area completely.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">In this series of 8 articles, we will give you some strategies that will help give you the edge in order to Sell at Mastery! While these articles are primarily focused on the sales profession, there are so many of these concepts that cross over into everyday living. This is article 4 in the &#8220;Are You Emotionally Ready?&#8221; series. We invite you to discover all 8.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Bring your feelings and understanding of money into line with the mindset of financially successful people.</strong> Following this step is vital if you want to be an above average attractor of money in your career and your life. Getting Paid is Good, or is it? Having Money is Good, or is it?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Most people want and need money. They want more than they have for a variety of reasons. They will often tell you that. Yet their personal core belief system and / or perhaps the beliefs of those around them are at serious odds with those statements.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">By core beliefs, we mean those things that create your inner value systems on a subconscious level. While your conscience mind is pursuing success and the money that comes with it your subconscious may actually be working against you.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">How is that possible? Your subconscious mind, following direction from your conditioned core belief system, will create mental roadblocks that will set you up for under-achieving or perhaps even complete failure. Your subconscious mind will actually work to <strong>&#8216;protect you&#8217;</strong> from obtaining money.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Definitely, the concept that money is good does not have the agreement of everyone, even within a capitalist society. <strong>Have you ever heard or even been taught that money is the root of all evil? The statement is total nonsense!</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">It is usually tossed about by people in one of the following categories.</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 18px;">Those who are jealous of those who have more money than they do.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 18px;">Those who are trying to convince you to give your money to them.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 18px;">Religious and other organizations that point to the underhanded methods some people use who are pursuing money while abusing others. You know some people will do anything for money.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">We believe that money is <strong>NOT</strong> the root of all evil, more accurately the statement should read, <strong>the lack of money is the root of all evil.</strong> Money, by itself is neutral. Left on its own, money can do nothing. That is true, is it not?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Any concept of evil acts or evil behaviors is created by individuals or groups of people, not by the actual money. Consider this. Which of these problems are solved with the lack of money? Would not the world be better off if there were more money, not less, to deal with things such as:</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>World hunger</strong></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Medical research</strong></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Global warming</strong></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Quality health care for all</strong></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Family problems created by high debt</strong></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Access to education for everyone</strong></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Clean water for everyone on earth</strong></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Or helping a friend, a stranger or loved one in need</strong></span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Any, so called evil, is created, not by money, but by what people might do in the pursuit of it. How do you deal with the concept of money? We suggest that you will be very well served if you begin to adopt the core belief that having money is an enormous blessing rather than a curse. Then, work to add the following statement to your core belief system.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>&#8220;I resolve to never pursue money in a way that willfully harms others and I will use the excess money that I attract to perform good in the world to the best of my ability&#8221;.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">If you internalize this statement carefully and live by its spirit you will never consider money as the root of evil again. As a final statement, we believe that the human ego and human greed is at the heart of the evil wrongfully associated with money.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Look for the other 4 articles in this series, then begin to reap your personal and financial rewards.</span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Selling Success is not only determined by your knowledge of the sales cycle, selling strategies, sales secrets or even conversational skills. As important as these things are, your personal emotions will often determine your level of attainment and financial success in your selling career and in other areas of your life. Regrettably, many sales training books and courses ignore this area completely.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">In this series of 8 articles, we will give you some strategies that will help give you the edge in order to Sell at Mastery! While these articles are primarily focused on the sales profession, there are so many of these concepts that cross over into everyday living. This is article 3 in the &#8220;Are You Emotionally Ready?&#8221; series. <strong>We invite you to discover all eight</strong>.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Work tirelessly to remove negativity from your vocabulary and your reality.</strong> A few years ago, we saw someone working as a sales manager in one of the highest volume Toyota dealerships in the country and it had a very interesting culture on the sales floor.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">There was an active campaign to eliminate negativity from people&#8217;s vocabulary and from the workplace. Although the concept was quite simple in its approach it was largely effective.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Many people, by their nature, seem to like to complain and find fault. Some like to blame others for their failures and shortcomings and still others like to live in the past and spread tales of their bad luck to all who will provide an ear. Salespeople, in general seem particularly good at telling the sad <strong>&#8216;war stories&#8217;</strong> of past problems and missed sales opportunities.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Observing something that isn&#8217;t working properly and seeking the appropriate solution is one thing but simply spreading or wallowing in negativity is something else entirely. Since the spreading of negativity breeds more of it, the decision was taken to try to stifle the spread of negativity in this dealership.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">It started from within management but soon filtered down so that virtually everyone in the place was participating. When someone was heard to spread something negative or complain to no one in particular, he or she was admonished with a simple comment, <strong>&#8220;No Negatives&#8221;</strong>. That was it. No more and no less. It was simply, &#8220;<strong>No Negatives</strong>&#8220;.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">What this did was to nip negativity in the bud. It didn&#8217;t beat on people. It just reminded them that they were spreading negativity. It changed behaviors over time. It didn&#8217;t fix everything for everyone but it <strong>increased productivity and made for a much nicer working environment for everyone.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Be aware of negativity around you and gently do your part in reducing it</strong> <strong>in others</strong> and, most importantly, in yourself. Let&#8217;s face it, if there is no negativity producing low energy you will have plenty of room for positive, high energy thoughts and the resulting feel good emotions that accompany them. Simply remember &#8220;No Negatives&#8221;.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Look for the other 5 articles in this series, then begin to reap your personal and financial rewards.</span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Selling Success is not only determined by your knowledge of the sales cycle, selling strategies, sales secrets or even conversational skills. As important as these things are, your personal emotions will often determine your level of attainment and financial success in your selling career and in other areas of your life. Regrettably, many sales training books and courses ignore this area completely.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">In this series of 8 articles, we will give you some strategies that will help give you the edge in order to Sell at Mastery! While these articles are primarily focused on the sales profession, there are so many of these concepts that cross over into everyday living. This is article 2 in the &#8220;Are You Emotionally Ready?&#8221; series. We invite you to discover all 8.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Hopefully these powerful points will be thought provoking enough for you to want to increase your understanding of these concepts.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>&#8220;Change your emotions, when needed, in order to alter your subsequent actions&#8221;</strong>. Feelings and emotions that produce happiness and a positive attitude are great. They will propel you forward. When these do occur, you usually need to change nothing!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">On the other hand there are feelings that create emotions that produce sadness or anger that are not so great because they weigh you down and drain your energy and creativity. There is a simple two-part strategy that can enable you to remove these bad (negative, angry, destructive or unproductive) emotions from your life.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Understand that feelings just happen in response to a situation, any situation. You can&#8217;t prevent experiencing those feelings in any way that I know of. The emotions that arise out of those feelings are also, by and large, not preventable either. However, the actions that they can produce are absolutely controllable, as are the lingering negative feelings and emotions. When you have <strong>mindful conscious awareness of your feelings</strong> and subsequent emotions you develop the power to choose your future actions along with your future thoughts.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">There is a moment, for some a very brief moment, between the experience of feelings and emotions before actual action is taken. What you choose to do in this moment is critical to the action you will take and the results that you will obtain <strong>(understand that for every action there is a consequence)</strong>.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">The first key here is to stretch out that moment for a second or two, longer if needed, so that you can analyze then consciously choose your action rather than just reacting to something and making the inappropriate choice of actions.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Most reactive actions are in response to programming built into our DNA that relates to our <strong>fight or flight mechanism</strong>. It is there to protect us in life threatening situations. But let&#8217;s face it, most of the situations we encounter on a daily basis are not life threatening and therefore don&#8217;t demand a reactionary action. Slow it down, think it out and only then take action. Take the positive action that will serve you or someone else. The old wisdom to count to ten when something disturbs you is actually very powerful advice.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">The second key is to <strong>replace your negative thoughts with positive ones</strong>. Because what you think about grows. It is actually impossible to have a positive and negative thought in your mind at precisely the same time. Therefore, work to displace the negative thoughts with positive ones and your feelings will change.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Here is a simple example of what I mean. Perhaps you see a car accident unfold in front of you as you are on your way to work in the morning. You call 911 and stop to lend assistance. There are seriously injured people and you feel upset, sad and perhaps angry because people are hurting. These are all perfectly natural feelings and emotions. However, if they are not put aside and replaced with positive thoughts you will likely be unable to do anything of value for the rest of the day.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Once the paramedics arrive and you can be on your way, you will now be in a position to pause and choose your ongoing thoughts. You can allow thoughts of that accident and injured people to linger in your mind all day which will weigh you down and distract or even depress you. Not a good thing. Or, you can replace those thoughts with ones where you have <strong>helped these people the best you could</strong> and they are now in the hands of professionals.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">A much better thought process, don&#8217;t you think? You can be grateful that more cars were not involved. you can be grateful no one died. It doesn&#8217;t matter which positive thoughts you choose to use. These new thoughts will allow you to put the incident behind you so you can get on with your day.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Just one final thought here. Do your best to avoid situations that consistently lead to your feeling bad. For example, if watching the news every night after dinner upsets you, quit watching the news. The truly important stuff will find you. The rest of the sensationalized &#8216;garbage&#8217; is largely irrelevant in your life.</span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Selling Success is not only determined by your knowledge of the sales cycle, selling strategies, sales secrets or even conversational skills. As important as these things are, your personal emotions will often determine your level of attainment and financial success in your selling career and in other areas of your life. Regrettably, many sales training books and courses ignore this area completely.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>In this series of 8 articles,</strong> we will give you some strategies that will help give you the edge in order to <strong>Sell at Mastery</strong>! While these articles are primarily focused on the sales profession, there are so many of these concepts that cross over into everyday living. This is article <strong>1</strong> in the <strong>&#8220;Are You Emotionally Ready?&#8221;</strong> series.<strong> We invite you to discover all 8.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Hopefully these powerful points will be thought provoking enough for you to want to increase your understanding of these concepts.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">To begin with, we will give you this powerful piece of advice. <strong>&#8220;Make the deliberate choice to conscientiously become fully aware of your feelings and corresponding emotions along with how those feelings and emotions affect your personal behaviors, either positively or negativity&#8221;.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Without this awareness, you will be totally powerless to modify, enhance or control these emotions and their effects on you. Without complete awareness, we find ourselves without personal control over our lives and our careers. Look around and observe those you see around you. Who do you know that has tremendous mood swings based on what is happening in the world, in their community or in their immediate environment at home or in the workplace?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Do these people also engage in behaviors that do not serve their overall best interests much of the time? These are people who are being controlled by their feelings and emotions rather than being people who are in control of them. These individuals can have their emotional buttons pushed by outside sources, events or other people without their consent or even their knowledge. Most are simply not consciously aware that this is even happening to them.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">This fact means that they surrender much of their personal power to others. If, as you were <strong>&#8216;looking around&#8217;</strong>, you happened to glance in the mirror and realize that group included you, chances are your feeling and corresponding emotions are holding you back from achieving the success you desire and deserve in your selling career and perhaps in your life in general.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Fortunately, most people do realize that they perform at a much higher level when they are happy and feel good. Doesn&#8217;t it then make good sense to work towards feeling good and happy each day? Coping with the challenges of life doesn&#8217;t make this an easy task all the time, but it is possible. Millions choose this as a way of life every single day.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Consider this. When you experience an event or see something that either disturbs or brings joy to you, you will have feelings. These feelings then will trigger emotional energy within you which you will discharge in either a positive or negative way through your action or&#8230; in most cases, a reaction. The exciting thing about this is that, by and large, you get to choose which reaction it will be.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;">Will it be positive or negative based on the consequences, through your actions? Herein lays the problem for most people. <strong>Their actions are triggered by their feeling and emotions rather than rational conscious thought.</strong> Therefore, if they have felt something less than joyful they will then tend to be reactive and negative which will then cause additional feelings of sadness or anger. The alternative is to be proactive and positive which will produce joy and calmness which will create much better outcomes for you. Your feelings should guide you but not totally control you since they can be influenced by outside sources.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Look for the other 7 articles in this series, then begin to reap your personal and financial rewards.</strong></span></p>
