<![CDATA[So how did you start this morning? Did you have a clear focus on exactly what you wanted to accomplish today? For example:

   * Start a relationship with one good prospect before noon.
   * Eat lunch with your best prospect.
   * Pass out five samples to five quality prospects.
   * Have two new guests at tonight's opportunity meeting.

Or, did you avoid building your business and became a "manager?" For example:

   * Checked your back office three times.
   * Took pictures for a new brochure idea.
   * Started yet another Facebook group for people to hide in, avoiding prospecting.
   * Listened to an extra motivational CD.
   * Checked your email inbox six times.
   * Posted funny quotes at social networking sites.

Management mode is dangerous. Our building stops, our momentum stops, and our downline duplicates management mode.

Vitamins for the Mind
by Jim Rohn

Skills/Sales

Don't wish it was easier; wish you were better. Don't wish for less problems; wish for more skills. Don't wish for less challenges; wish for more wisdom.
You must either modify your dreams or magnify your skills.
You can cut down a tree with a hammer, but it takes about 30 days. If you trade the hammer for an ax, you can cut it down in about 30 minutes. The difference between 30 days and 30 minutes is skills.
The key to life is to become skillful enough to be able to do rewarding things.
Learn to hide your need and show your skill.
To succeed in sales, simply talk to lots of people every day. And here's what's exciting—there are lots of people!
Practice is just as valuable as a sale. The sale will make you a living; the skill will make you a fortune.
Selling is a person-to-person business. You cannot send the sales manual out to make the sale. Sales manuals have no legs and no voice.
In the sales profession the real work begins after the sale is made.
Salespeople should take lessons from their kids. What does the word "no" mean to a child? Almost nothing.
Even if you are new in sales, you can make up in numbers what you lack in skills.
"Vitamins for the Mind" is a weekly sampling of original quotes on a specific topic taken from The Treasury of Quotes by Jim Rohn. The burgundy hardbound book with gold-foil lettering is a collection of more than 365 quotes on 60 topics gathered from Jim's personal journals, seminars and books and spanning more than 40 years

Everyone is built differently although we have one of 4 core personality traits within us which defines who we are as people. Unfortunately some people have to hide their true self as they have been hurt by another person’s actions. Its part of life as a person, each of us must feel that we are free to be able to be ourselves and that we are not going to be criticised for being the person we are. Some people will put us down for who we are as a person or something we have achieved.

When we live a life of being told what to do, no you cannot do that and take it on board then it begins to control our own lives and we can no longer be who we are as a person. We need to get out of this environment where we are told what to think, how to act and be. It’s not easy yet it’s what happens and it’s great when we are capable of being ourselves as a person.
