no@spam.com (Richard Mansell) — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 00:00:00 MST

How is your personal economy doing? The national economy, as important as it is to our country's well being, is not the deciding factor in determining your success. You are. And, just as consumer attitude plays a major roll in determining the state of our national economy, it's your attitude about your opportunity and your expectation of the future that casts the deciding vote in determining if your personal economy is going to be good or bad.

The Principle of Planned Auto-Response

no@spam.com (Richard Mansell) — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 12:30:00 MST

Automate your success by putting your brain to work with the principle of planned auto-response. Repeated actions, practiced over and over again, create neuro-pathways in the brain, nerves and muscles. Over time these neuro-pathways become stronger and virtually bypass your conscious mind to synchronize your senses, brain, nerves, and muscles together like direct links, streamlining a specific task. Thus trained, the body reacts promptly on cue, with perfect accuracy and poise, and without any conscious thought at all.

Please Do Not Sit On The Fence

Recently, I saw a sign while I was at an amusement park with my kids that made me think. It said simply, “please do not sit on the fence.” I thought, isn’t this the biggest problem we have in our business and personal lives? Wouldn’t it be great if we all took these instructions to heart? We are a society of fence sitters: we vacillate, we avoid commitment, we procrastinate, and we put off important decisions.

"SEEING" The Hidden Inner World of Talking

no@spam.com (Dr. Lloyd Glauberman) — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 12:00:00 MST

Being aware of ongoing external sensory input is essential to survival. Yet, external information only constitutes half of our sensory world. The other half we create in our minds, and its importance cannot be overstated. Begin to notice how you create images in your mind as you talk with anyone under any circumstances. It’s like air, it’s always there but we’re oblivious to it.

In order to achieve an extremely high closing ratio in sales you must assume that the outcome of your presentations will be as you desire. Assuming the sale means that right from the beginning, and all the way through the process, you believe and remain committed to achieving the goal you set.

The Refining Process

Just as a river smooths and refines jagged rocks into smooth stones, our challenges and life struggles act like sand paper, smoothing our weaknesses, honing our skills, and polishing our personality until we are transformed into something better than we could ever have become on our own.

Building an Internal Map of Experience

no@spam.com (Dr. Lloyd Glauberman) — Sat, 12 Jul 2008 12:30:00 MST

Trying to sort out and label the contents of one’s consciousness can be extremely confusing. Equally difficult is trying to assess one’s mood. Am I depressed, angry, anxious, sad or a combination of these feelings? Do I feel good today, or just not bad? What events in my life currently are effecting my feelings, if any? These are questions that everyone asks himself or herself periodically.
