Make your life the best life possible
"It's nice to be important...but it's important to be nice."
Making and keeping a lot of money looks very successful on the outside. So does having a lean muscular build or a nice slim figure. Some people are fortunate enough to have both. However, if your ability to make and maintain quality relationships is restricted by a narrow selfish outlook, control issues, addictions, or a lack of spiritual foundation you can easily lose it all.
Having a plan for being the best person you can be is every bit as important as your plans for generating more money or getting more fit. They all are interconnected, but relationships are the glue that holds them together. Plus, you will find you have to work just as hard in this area as you do in the other two.
Everyday, people are cheated out of a better life because they fail to learn the lessons that are needed to elevate themselves. Sales are lost, friendships fall by the wayside, and marriages are destroyed. You can't expect to "just be yourself" and everything will workout ducky.
All of us have specific problem areas we need to personally address. Admitting to them is a powerful first step, but making a legitimate plan to correct shortcomings is even more pronounced.

Your ability to relate to others in a likeable way that fosters genuine trust will set you apart in the quest to generate more income in your own business.
The sales books that talk about "walking a customer to the bottom line," overcoming objections, and "getting to yes" make interaction way too manipulative. If people like you and the way you present your product to meet their needs, they will buy from you.
Look at the chart below. Which characteristics are you drawn to?
Are you attracted to people who
* act like a bully
* seem to know everything
* want to lecture you or set you straight
* have an addiction or glaring issue
* lie easily and frequently
* are nosey about your personal life
*
are inconsiderate of your ideas or feelings
* loud, opinionated, cusses for effect
|
or people who are
* easy going
* intelligent but quiet about it
* want to run their life, not yours
* stay moderate in their activities
* see no need to hedge on the truth
* good with personal boundaries
* supportive in the best way possible
* converses with class
|
So how do you develop the characteristics you want? How do you improve your spiritual connection? Why can't you just be yourself and let others take it or leave it?
