Ever received too much appreciation from a boss or coworker? What about a family member?

Me neither.

People are quick to point out the 1% of the things we do incorrectly but what about that 99% that went off without a hitch? What if we went against the grain and we’re one of the few who truly appreciated people for who they are and the value they add to our organizations and lives?

What a tremendous impact we could have! Today Ashley, Joey and I delve into this subject.

Today Joey and Grant discuss two of Dale Carnegie’s ways to break the worry habit – keep busy and don’t worry about the past.

Not suggesting that we don’t learn from the past, but not dwell on it and let it continue to haunt your present.

And as far as staying busy – as long as you are putting yourself out there and moving forward – even if it’s only inches forward – the world has a funny way of rewarding you for just showing up.

Enjoy!

How can beginning in a friendly way impact an interaction?

If you are in a confrontational situation it can take out the sting of the disagreement. But if you’re in a sales situation it can mean the difference between getting 5 more minutes of their time and never taking to a potential client again.

Get your notepad out because today UL sales and entrepreneur instructor Reece Theriot drops some real value in your lap about the power of friendliness when it comes to sales and how to get the most out of your time with someone. Also hear about his awesome company Lamleo. Visit lamleo.com for more information.

Have you ever been in a discussion, defending a point vihametly and then realized you were wrong?

What did you do? Did you dig in even deeper or admit your mistake?

Today Joey and Grant discuss the potential damage you can do when you don’t admit your mistakes and the benefits of acknowledging your short comings. Guest Tony Savoie from Louisiana Auto Collision joins the discussion as well!

Dale Carnegie calls it the little known secret to success.

Thomas Edison said that if a man passes it on to his children he has left a fortune of incalculable value.

That thing is enthusiasm!

Yet today many people shy away from it or just go through life avoiding situations where they have to be enthusiastic. Today Grant and Joey tackle the enthusiasm drought.

What is worry worth to you? Is it worth all the happiness you lose? Or the moments you don’t get to enjoy?

Is it worth your own health? When we worry we create bad environments for ourselves health wise. Our eating habits decline and our overall well being is at risk.

Today Joey, Ashley and Grant discuss the price you can pay when you worry.

Worry is your enemy. But stress has a very important role in sharpening us up and getting us to focus.

It’s when we worry about the stress that we cause problems. Or if we eliminate stress all together we can sometimes cause worry because we are just drifting through life.

Today Joey and I tackle the fine line between stress and worry.

So you’ve been hearing from people who have already been transformed by taking the Dale Carnegie Course, but what about someone who hasn’t? What about someone who still has doubts and fears about what to expect?

Well Joey and I have created the perfect experiment!

Joey’s wife Lacie Billiot will be taking the class beginning in April. This is her thoughts on everything going into the class. We will interview her at the end of the class to see how differently she views the world around her! You may be feeling the same way she does. Also you’ll hear some great things from her perspective!

Exciting stuff! Enjoy!

What is the value of having a legitimate conversation? Where can it take you in a relationship with a stranger or even someone you’ve known for a while now?

When we stop wasting time with small talk we can drill down and really get to the heart of someone. Today Joey and Grant discuss how you can actually start that conversation and position yourself to have the best possible result of your time spent with someone.

Enjoy!

What is your first reaction when someone shares an opposing opinion with you? If you’re like most people you lash out with your opinion or completely shut them down.

But what if we could have an honest discussion to find out how people developed their opinions? Wouldn’t our conversations go a little smoother? How would our relationships be affected?

This week Keaty Real Estate Agent Lacey Swortzel joins us to discuss just that and how having respect for others opinions can help a group of dissimilar real estate agents come together for a common goal.

Enjoy!
