People don’t buy because of the product or service alone. They buy a product or service because they trust that you have their best interests in mind. They buy because they know and like you. What is it that you do well? What is your point of differentiation? The answer to that is Your Brand. Build a strong personal brand and prospects and customers will think of you as the “go-to person” for that talent, skill or knowledge.

Are you in sales? Before you answer that question think about what sales really is. Most people (except sales professionals) don’t consider themselves to be in sales.

Sales is about influence. Nothing more nothing less.

Everyone uses influence in their lives. We influence our kids to get them to behave the way we’d like them to behave. If you are married or have a partner, you had to influence that person to accept you as a mate. If you have a job, you had to influence the hiring person to hire you. If you are a manager in a company, you have to influence your employees to give you their best. Just telling them to give 100% never works unless you have real influence. Are you starting to get the picture? Sales is all about influence … nothing more nothing less.

Goals are “an observable and measurable end result having one or more objectives to be achieved within a more or less fixed timeframe.” They can be big goals like the kind you set on New Years Day, quarterly goals, weekly goals, or daily goals.The size and duration don’t matter except in how you execute the tactical portion of achieving the goal. A goal is a goal and the process for identification and attainment is the same regardless complexity.

If you are ready for a change in your life, all you need to do is take three simple steps. These steps are so simple that you might think they couldn’t work. But they do!

Goal setting is an essential skill that effectively helps to add hours to your work week, and is a very worthy skill to master. The only hard part is in taking the first step and getting your first goals written down on paper. After your first try, you will probably find it so effective that you will start wondering how you managed to survive so long without written goals!

Attitude is everything! Prolonged success (in other words, not a fluke) is only relegated to those that know how to harness the ability to have a positive mental attitude (PMA).

Here’s what PMA is not. It’s not something taught by some self-help guru telling you to think nice happy things. Having a positive attitude is not a simple case of repeating positive affirmations to yourself to temporarily make you feel better, and it is not, as some call it, “fake it till you make it.” It's much more!

I am a huge proponent of using formulas to do things I’ve never done before. Let me give you an example, I don’t consider myself to be a great cook; just a competent one. I really enjoy good food and I view dining and the presentation of food as an art. But here’s the deal, I don’t have to be an artist to make a good meal. I can simply follow a recipe. If I don’t deviate from the recipe, chances are that I’ll make something that is pretty tasty.

Achieving success works much the same way. You can increase your chances for success substantially if you follow a recipe that others have used and that is proven to work. This podcast covers the 5 steps that you can take to increase your success in life.

Without fail, almost every business person that I coach struggles with stress. Even the most experienced of executives feels at times like they can’t keep their head above water. It’s not because they aren’t competent. It is usually because things keep moving faster and faster and the time management and stress reduction skills that once served them well, no longer work.

It doesn’t matter if you are trying to achieve personal success or you are a corporation trying to reach your peak performance potential; using the five step SPEAR method will greatly increase your chances of successful goal attainment. It’s simple to understand simple to use, and best of all, the highest achievers and most successful companies all do the same things.

Like the tip of a spear, the power of any great plan is getting to the point. What is the exact result you hope to achieve? Your goal should be focused, detailed, and clear enough so that anyone reading it understands exactly what your objectives are.
