- Recognize that your mind is not your friend. Negative self-talk wants to protect you; exaggerated fear that the mind has focused on.
- What you can accept can transform. What you resist will persist. I.e. stand in front of the mirror naked
- No jerks in the world until you show up. It’s never them, it’s always you. The label you give it makes you feel bad. No one can make you feel bad.
Stop taking life personally. Stop labeling. Be grateful and share gratitude.

Ways People Think
Sell the way the person likes to buy.
Two ways: towards pleasure or away from pain. Most buy away from pain. It’s your job to find out, which one the person is. Don’t sell the way you are.
- Pain: the person will take action to avoid discomfort. Stab the pain. Example: You’ll have a heart attack if you don’t make a change. You’re uncomfortable most of the time.
- Pleasure: think about how great you’ll look, bikini, the dream house, etc. A pleasure person has the ability to deal with the pain, so you have to paint the picture of pleasure.
Internal vs External person
The more someone knows about the subject the more INTERNAL they are. They look to themselves for decisions and choices to be made. Don’t need others opinions. Don’t say, “Hear is what I think or I think you should do ______”
You state “I’m sure you already know or “I don’t have to tell you (state what you don’t have to tell them) “you already know all that, it’s just about you being ready ________”
EXTERNAL: wants to know what the world has to say and get feedback. An external person thinks a suggestion is a command.
INTERNAL: thinks a command is a suggestion.
Find out whether someone is an INTERNAL or EXTERNAL person by asking. Find out how people receive information. For example:
“How do you know if a new business opportunity is right for you?”
“How do you know if a new weight loss program is right for you?”
Decision making stragetgy
- Some want to read
- Some want feedback and opinions
- Some want to listen
It’s NOT a one size fits all.
Questions to Ask. Make the questions easy.
- What programs have you tried in the past?
- What as the process you used to decide if it was right for you?
- Did you talk to someone about the program, i.e. a rep, other people, research, read, video, talk to your spouse?
