See Failures as learning experiences

A wonderful post on failures and seeing such as learning experiences as a person. You learn from everything you do, when you do then you grow
as a person. Yet you stop growing when you don’t grow as a person. You have to know that you are learning from those mistakes and it’s ok to grow
as a person. Although some people will believe they are perfect and that mistakes are not good, a mistake is quite often a learning experience
on the ways to achieve your goal.

A good question to ask is what can I learn from this.

How to relate to people….

Who do you know that…..

Ok how would you like to relate to others as a person and know how to talk to them as a person?, to create those better relationships?, those better friendships????, sounds interesting. So lets take a look.

Do you know someone who is a lot of the time

kind hearted

sweet

kind

wonderful person

a very loving person

Has a lot of friends some may be false friends even and there can be a number of true friends.

Generous with time and money

They struggle to say no or when they do someone else is saying but and eventually give in.

Has been taken advantage of a lot by other people ….

Someone who nurtures others and rarely takes care of their own needs. They can even be a natural parent.

They can be a nurse, a doctor, a care giver, anything to really do with caring about others and showing they care.

I am sure that you do. Its who they are as a person

Do you know someone who always loves being the life of the party, centre of attention even

Wants to have fun and enjoys it too

They are out there trill seeking and doing all kinds of crazy stuff, it doesn’t matter what they do. They just go out there and enjoy themselves. It always has to be fun or their out of there. My mentor Michael Dlouhy is such

They are full of energy and vitality

They have all the awards and certificates

They may be constantly late

They are often talking quite a bit

They may be in sales as a person

They have sticky notes everywhere

They are unorganised

They have to get out what is in their head or they will forget such, which can be why they are talking so much. These people love the music and enjoy their life. Quite often they are in sales.

Do you know someone who takes forever to make a decision it may be to get into a company, it may to get a job, it may be find a new home, it may be to do something even propose.

Even to get into action

They follow through with such when they have decided what they want to do. Sometimes they stick with it until.

They believe they are rite all the time.

They may procrastinate and have something which have got to do and they want to use yet it takes them 12 months to do such. They may have to make a decision for a new place yet it takes them so long that when they do the place isn’t available anymore.

They can be good with numbers weather its engineering, accounting and everything has to be exact. Lets say everything has a place and it is in that place.

Do you know someone who is forever about authority

They expect it there way quite often they demand it

They believe they can talk to anyone anyway they want and it doesn’t matter

They are firm and stern

Quite often they are a chief executive officer, a pilot, a manager, a policeman they love the authority and the power which they get from such.

The person can be someone who has sayings like “I am old enough to be your father. Do as I say”.

Throughout own life I have met a number of people who fit into each of these 4 groups. Over the next few blog posts we are going to be looking at each of these people and what you can do to relate to them as a person. Lets look at the first group of people.

The nurtures or yellows as my good friend and mentor Michael Dlouhy would call them.

They are amazing people yet they are taken advantage of. They are constantly thinking of other people, they don’t often take care of their own needs as a person. They constantly put others needs before their own.

Their voice soft and gentle.

They may have a soft hand shake.

Always up for a hug and to display affection.

Always smiling.

They give from the heart of what they have as a person. They give money to the charities, they give time to such also.

They are taken advantage of by people as they don’t set firm boundaries and stick to them. They struggle to keep their boundaries as a person. They even struggle with the no’s owing to someone pestering them to do something they may not want to do as a person.

They love to talk about their family and friends, they enjoy talking about such. In order to get to know that person well forget about the money, just get them talking about their family and friends. How much they mean to them as a person. That is the best way to relate to someone, you can even relate when they have a pet such as a dog.

This is a good way to build that friendship with those people, talk about the important people in your life. Forget about business, just talk about the people who mean the world to that person. When you do that you will create a wonderful bond with that person.

The next person the fun person – the blues my mentor Michael Dlouhy is a blue.

His mind is racing so fast and attempts to get more than 24 hours out of each day on his own. Yet he’s a wonderful guy. For a blue it has to be fun, you have to be enjoying yourself. You achieve so much as you enjoy it.

Now to build a relationship with a blue talk about the fun things you’ve done such as the time you road a trail bike. A blue also loves to travel, they are generally on the go and will have a fast voice and will barely stop talking long enough to get a word in. You may have to interrupt them to talk, quite often they will take the conversation where they want it to go.

You can also cover 5 or 6 different subjects in one conversation with a blue, that they can be talking about one thing. Then suddenly speak on a different unrelated matter for some reason, then another topic. There are people who get frustrated from the constant changing of topics and who they are as a person.

A blue can be a very expressive person too, they will use a lot of emotion and will also use a lot of hand movements too.

There are a number of awards and certificates which they have as a person. They will be top sales person in their company and achieved a lot.

These people are often unorganised that forget appointments or are running late for some reason.

The Blues do have a wide circle of friends and family and are natural parents, although they need fun more than anything else.

In the next blog post we will cover the other two personalities also. Please note this is from training received from mentoring for free, that everyone will always have pieces of these in them however they will have a dominant personality.

Thank you to mentoring for free for their training on a persons personality and how you can relate to that person.

How to get along with others

A powerful article from Jim Rohn’s newsletter on Respecting others and getting along with other people, it comes down to respect and rapport.
You show someone you respect them and create that strong rapport with them, then they will do anything for you. When you don’t knock the
person you will have anything done to you as a person.

Respect for Others
by Tony Alessandra

When I was in high school back in 1960's, everyone always divided themselves into self-contained, often exclusive, groups. These groups followed all the old clichés — you had your greasers, your jocks, your nerds, your college prep kids, and your vocational kids — and everyone was always careful to stay within their own group.

Although I was technically in the athletic group (or jocks) and the college prep group, I always tried to go out of my way to get along with everyone -- no matter what group they were associated with. I always got good grades, so I fit in with the smart kids. I was born and raised in New York City, so I got along with the greasers. I tried to find my connection with everyone, which was not hard at all. After all, we were all high school kids — we had plenty to bond over with the shared experience of going to the same school.

However, the reason that I was able to build on those commonalities — the reason people from other groups were friendly back to me — was that I treated everyone with respect. I never gossiped about the popular crowd, never teased or taunted the nerds. I made an effort to see everyone's positive aspects, and I focused on those. In essence, I treated others the way they wanted to be treated, and it gave me the ability to adapt and be liked by just about everybody.

I have carried that philosophy throughout my whole life: I am as polite to a janitor as a CEO. As people, they both exist on the same level — and both deserve the same amount of outward respect.

My mantra: “What goes around, comes around.”

What do you have “coming around” for yourself?

Making life worthwhile

A powerful lesson from Jim Rohn on those four key words that really working throughout life, when you learn especially learn from the
experiences of life that comes your way. Sometimes there is a price to pay for something, you have to be willing to pay that price to
move ahead.

Four Words That Make Life Worthwhile
by Jim Rohn

Over the years as I’ve sought out ideas, principles and strategies to life’s challenges, I’ve come across four simple words that can make living worthwhile.

First, life is worthwhile if you LEARN. What you don’t know WILL hurt you. You have to have learning to exist, let alone succeed. Life is worthwhile if you learn from your own experiences—negative or positive. We learn to do it right by first sometimes doing it wrong. We call that a positive negative. We also learn from other people’s experiences, both positive and negative. I’ve always said that it is too bad failures don’t give seminars. Obviously, we don’t want to pay them so they aren’t usually touring around giving seminars. But that information would be very valuable—we would learn how someone who had it all then messed it up. Learning from other people’s experiences and mistakes is valuable information because we can learn what not to do without the pain of having tried and failed ourselves.

We learn by what we see, so pay attention. We learn by what we hear, so be a good listener. Now I do suggest that you should be a selective listener. Don’t just let anybody dump into your mental factory. We learn from what we read, so learn from every source: from lectures, from songs, from sermons, and from conversations with people who care. Always keep learning.

Second, life is worthwhile if you TRY. You can’t just learn; now you have to try something to see if you can do it. Try to make a difference, try to make some progress, try to learn a new skill, try to learn a new sport. It doesn’t mean you can do everything, but there are a lot of things you can do, if you just try. Try your best. Give it every effort. Why not go all out?

Third, life is worthwhile if you STAY. You have to stay from spring until harvest. If you have signed up for the day or for the game or for the project, see it through. Sometimes calamity comes and then it is worth wrapping it up. And that’s the end, but just don’t end in the middle. Maybe on the next project you pass, but on this one, if you signed up, see it through.

And lastly, life is worthwhile if you CARE. If you care at all, you will get some results. If you care enough, you can get incredible results. Care enough to make a difference. Care enough to turn somebody around. Care enough to start a new enterprise. Care enough to change it all. Care enough to be the highest producer. Care enough to set some records. Care enough to win.

Four powerful little words: learn, try, stay and care. What difference can you make in your life today by putting these words to work?
