The body electric!!!

Your body is the vehicle for transporting your fire and your joy around the planet!

It is the brain that houses the mind and your thoughts. It is your fingers that type your messages. It is the arms that hug your lover. It is the legs that move you to the next place. It is your eyes that see the beauty.

To consciously protect your fire and your joy, you MUST take stellar care of your body! My coach used to say – if you had a $5 million race horse, how would you care for it? What would you feed it? Who would you let hang around it? How much sleep and rest would it get? How much exercise? You get the picture!

Love your body up!

Your birthright and your ONLY job…

is to protect your internal fire and joy! YOU are designed to shine like a beacon! YOU are designed to fly free….giddily mastering the intricacies and magic of life.

YES YOU….the one sitting in your underwear. I’m talking to you!

Don’t think there’s enough for everyone to go around? Let’s SEE!!!!

Here’s a simple trick I learned from T Harv Eker.

For ONE week. Don’t complain. If you catch yourself complaining to yourself or to anyone else…….run a finger across your throat as if you’re slitting it …. because the VERY ACT of complaining has a devastating effect on your wealth and health.

Simple? Maybe. Can you do it for ONE FULL WEEK? We’ll see!

Love your life UP!

I am not a brain surgeon …

and I do not play one on TV, but it is no news to anyone that the way we think determines the way we feel which determines the way we act which determines the results we get. Logical and elegant!

The trick is that most of us think that having thoughts means that we are thinking.

You’ve heard this before…….ever notice that the little voice in your head that never stops talking? The one that just said, “what voice?” (Not a new joke, just a good one).

You may have also already heard this before……..much of the time we relate to that little voice as WHO WE ARE! We believe (and defend even) what that crazy little, won’t-shut-up, complains constantly, can’t-get-Elton-John’s-Yellow-Brick-Road-out-of-your-head voice says. But, have you ever noticed that the voice doesn’t say nice things about you or your life? It’s not the most uplifting messenger.

Here’s the good news! It’s NOT who you are … and it’s CRITICAL that you get some control over what this little voice says.

There are many ways to do this – my favorite is to simply say “PASS” when I find myself indulging in complaints, frustrations, internal gossip and judgment…anything that makes me Less of a Person than who I am.

I say “PASS” and then I envision sliding to the next screen as if I were operating an iPhone! HA!!!

NEXT!!! If I don’t like the next one. PASS – slide.

Practice this the next few days. Everytime you are indulging in negative thoughts: PASS – Slide.

It is fun, and it is CRITICAL CRITICAL CRITICAL to your success and happiness!

Love the PASS-Slide up!

You must consciously protect your internal fire and joy

This whole week is going to be about the critical importance of training your mind to protect your internal fire and joy.

Believe it or not, you do have a say about how you respond to the thoughts that run through your head. Why is it important to know this? Because your mind and how you think is where EVERYTHING you experience and create and accomplish and achieve starts.

Today is about what you feed your brain – especially your subconscious mind. Are you impeccable with the information and entertainment you take in? What do you watch on TV? Movies? How do you process that information – especially subconsciously? How would you know?

What do you read? What do you spend your time looking at on the web?

What you put into your brain is what will come out in your circumstances and conditions that surround you.

Tomorrow we’ll talk about training your brain to work for you!!!! (Do  you think it already is? We’ll challenge that!)

I want you to have EVERYTHING you dreamed of, and you’ve got everything it takes RIGHT NOW to have it!!!

Love yourself up!

OK… the gloves are off and you might not want to hear this

Ever heard the saying “It takes two to tango?”

It’s not JUST salespeople that need to add a dash of dignity to the art of selling. It is AlSO the buyers!

I got an emai from a procurement guy today saying that they NORMALLY ask for a “lowest and best price” from the key contenders at this point of the sale……BUT if I’m willing to give them a FIFTY PERCENT DISCOUNT on the price I quoted them, they’d be happy to ignore other vendors.

SERIOUSLY????

Immediately, I contacted by business owner in the company. I asked them straight up…where did this person get misinformation about our pricing structure – it was nowhere near what we had discussed.

She responded….. “this is standard operating procedure. Just reply with what your price is. We look forward to working with you! ”

DON’T do this…if you are a BUYER….DON’T do this. It EQUALLY diminishes the art of selling.

I invite you to be a gracious and AUTHENTIC buyer. I promise you that you will get the best deals EVER imagined if you act in good faith and authentic communication.

I’m just sayin’…..procurement people, you want to be the BEST at your job, give a good listen to this, you might be surprised!

Love buyers up!

Frankly, if you are a person who creates opportunites for OTHERS, your path is assured. Ooooops! Not a get-rich-quick-scheme! A get rich scheme, none-the-less. Just depends on how fast you can create value for others!

I’m just sayin’,

Are you THAT smart, really?

Today, I invite you to listen to the opinions of someone you REALLY DON’T LIKE.

If you’re BOLD, you will ask them to coach you! HA!!!!

If you want to be REALLY great, you will learn other perspectives…..incorporate them as if they’re you’re own. Then, you will have access to REAL success because you can be in ANYONE’S world!

Wanna know how to always get the attention you want?

It used to be that all you needed to bring was enthusiasm and persistence.

Now, people require REAL value if you want a shot with them.

If every time you interact with ANYONE, you bring value to THEM….they will always take your calls, they will always return your emails, they will always care.

It’s tricky, though, are you the kind of person who has developed yourself to get over in THEIR world?

Do you know how to reach them in the way THEY like to be reached? (voice mail, text, email, phone call, personal visit)……People have preferences and today, they get to exercise those preferences better than ever!!!!

Find out what people WANT!!! (A really great way is often to ASK – most people never ask).

FREE BONUS: One thing is for certain. People like to LOOK GOOD! If you can make them feel and look like a rockstar — you are forever successful. The more people you make people feel good and look good, the more you will do well. Period.

Love people up!

What does your article say?

Many years ago, Anne Mulcahy was the new CEO of Xerox. Xerox was in BIG trouble. Morale was in the gutter. The situation looked pretty hopeless.

Until Ms. Mulcahy sat down and wrote a Wall Street Journal article – chronicling the amazing recovery of Xerox and exactly how it happened. Then, she dated it in the future!

She circulated this article throughout EVERY level of the company and socialized the success over and over and over again.

And guess what!!!! It happened. Everyone got behind the declaration of future success and LIVED INTO THAT FUTURE!!!

So, what does YOUR article say?  Have you taken time to sit down and create a future for yourself? Are you willing to share your article with everyone involved and affected?

It’s bold! And effective!

Write your future up!

Listen closely…this applies to YOU!

What you STAND for HAS to come first….the rest will follow.

Like Oz with his Dragon Cookies and his Excel Wizardry.

Like Kelly Hull with her legal expertise and her commitment to well-being.

Like Nicolle Hamilton and her commitment to curing cancer.

Like Mike Kunkle and his bringing REAL data to what drives sales results.

Like Beth Pfeffer overcoming serious physical ailment to guide the success of those who are broken down by physical limitations.

Like Desiree Adaway who has cracked the code for nonprofits to excel and make the most of for profit and heart-driven partners.

And many more of you — too many to mention.

If you are struggling in your success….look……is your STAND first? Or are you trying to sell something on top of something else (like you need to do your “job”)?

I live to EMPOWER salespeople (and I love having the rest of you as my community). That’s why I remain a cartoon character. There is no one to compare yourself to and come up lacking. I’m a fiction. I’m a muse. You can have your own muse.

What do you STAND for? Go be THAT every day and the rest is cookies (right, Oz?) The path opens up in front of you!!!!

Love yourself up!
