Hey Psyche, how do I?

We're inundated with so much content, information and advice growing up about what we should do for work, what we should value, but how do we really find something we enjoy. Something that lights the fire within us. What happens if we're just stumbling through life and looking for more meaning. How do we find something we care about, whether it be something we want to do for a living or just as a hobby. 

In this episode I'm joined by Mark Bryant & Rob Smith, Founders of @Mobfit.uk a workplace wellness consultancy, Craig Sullivan, a property developer and MD of Student House Gillingham @property_apprentice and myself! We'll be sharing stories and insights on how you can discover your passion and what it may look like, so tune in!

When we think about connecting with people, building relationships both online and offline, we think about what we are going to say and ask, but not so much on how we listen to them. A case can be made that listening is taken for granted sometimes, it's not something were taught, yet when we are able to use it effectively, can greatly improve our performance in the world of sales, management and general day to day life. 

This week I'm joined by Founder of The Sound Agency, 5 times TED speaker (with over 40 million views) and Author of How to be Heard, Julian Treasure.

Julian and I will be discussing why the most effective way to connect with someone is to consciously listen to them. Julian will share what is meant by conscious listening, how it can help in the way you sell to customers and engage with your community. Julian will also share some great tips on how you can improve your conscious listening to enhance every aspect of your life. If you want to raise and increase your understanding of how you can effectively listen to help you within your everyday life and business, then tune in. 

The world of sales is an ever changing beast. The way in which customer's buy has evolved, even in the last 12 months and looks to continue that way into the upcoming year. A big growth area not just in sales, but society, has been social media, which has seen the way we consume, buy and sell evolve. To stay ahead of the curve we need to adapt and embrace these advancements in social media, but when it comes to social selling, it's far more than what you may first think, and something that will elevate you, if you're able to utilise it. 

This week's guest on Not Another Sales Podcast is Social Selling Expert, CEO of The Daily Sales Page (which has over 350k subscribers) and Speaker Daniel Disney.

Daniel and I discuss what the misconceptions of social selling are, why it's important to build into your sales approach, what to avoid when doing so and some great tips on how to implement it straight away, whether you're a beginner or looking to advance your social selling. If you want to start the year with the insights needed to social selling with impact, then tune in!

 Stop telling yourself you can't do it, can't afford it, can't complete it.  Instead, start asking yourself how can I do it? how can I afford it? how can I complete it? 

Our brains are like a Google search engine. Whatever you type in, your brain will look to support or answer it.   If you're always saying I can't. Well guess what, your brain will find all the reasons to support this!  But if you start asking the question "how can I?" then your brain starts working out ways to create a plan.

Let's a take a Formula 1 race, where every second counts. You can have the best car, mechanics, team etc, but if you don't get a good start off the grid then you're playing catch up for the rest of the race.

Implementing these will see you start your day with positive intentions and set you up for success.
