They don't believe you. It's simple. The more they believe you, the more influence you have over them, the more you get what you deserve. Clients, co-workers, potential employers, friends, family...Doesn't matter.Believability leads to influence.Influence leads to power.Power leads to getting what you want.This is how to make it almost impossible for others not to believe everything you say and do. Internalize it and watch how your life changes.Show notes: https://www.johnmorrisshow.com/290
