Isolation is fatal
| |
| We assert that prosperity is a natural tribal phenomenon, while isolation is simply fatal in more ways than one. Disastrous to your health, mood and appetite. Cataclysmic to your prosperity. In fact, if you intend to be really wealthy, you are going to require more help than you can imagine. |

THE ROAD TO WEALTH
| |
| In the first chapter of his book, The Science of Getting Rich, Wallace D. Wattles said, ‘The object of all life is development, and everything that lives has an inalienable right to all the development it is capable of attaining.
A person’s right to life means his right to have the free and unrestricted use of all the things which may be necessary to his fullest mental, spiritual, and physical unfoldment; or, in other words, his right to be rich. The person who owns all he wants for the living of all the life he is capable of living is rich, and no person who has not plenty of money can have all he wants’.
If you think about it the road to wealth is accessible to all who earnest seek to find its corridors. But to achieve wealth one must have clear goals, dogged persistence and the correct mindset.

The More You Give, The More You Get: How To Get Interviews With Experts In Your Niche
| |
| We all know what karma is. What goes around comes around... it’s the law of the universe. Simply put, the more you give, the more you get... or as Robert Cialdini puts it in the science of “Influence”, it’s the rule of reciprocity.
Now, we’ve all heard of reciprocity with our customers. Give them bonuses, surprise them, and as we’ve riffed on, basically delight the customer to get them to love you.
I realized then what we had been missing... we needed to delight our potential business partners too. So I put aside the time to study the course. Okay, I’ll admit... it did seem a bit dreary at first, listening to 12 hours of audio... but let me tell you it was well worth it in the end.
The more you give, the more you get indeed. That’s the power of karma. |

See It Happen

How can I do that better or differently? How do I make miracles happen? What does it take to make the extraordinary, common in our lives?

The Science of Selling - Rules versus Data

In Selling, the rules accomplish the same thing. |
