Three Tips That Will Improve Your Mindset Right Now

/in , , , , , /by

I’ve heard many authors say that once they write a book, they never look at it again. That is definitely not me. I wrote Same Game New Rules over 12 years ago, but I still refer to it when I want to create content for a blog or to offer people useful advice.

I often find myself referring back to Chapter 20 in Same Games New Rules. This chapter is one of my favorites because I discuss the laws of money. It is vital that you understand the laws of money if you want to improve your work ethic and your mindset.

Law #1: The less you care about money, the more you’ll make.

When you become needy of money or business, you push away the very people who can help you. If you approach your client with more interest in solving problems than getting money, and the client is someone you can and want to help, you’ll automatically attract more business and money to you than you ever thought possible.

Law # 2: Push your clients too hard and their money will leave with them.

Your goal should be to create an environment in which your client pulls you along. The optimum strategy is to have your prospect selling you on why he needs you. On your first call, simply lay out your intent with a non-threatening, servant-like attitude.

During this time, resist the temptation to close the deal. Even when you know you can help, continue to explore options with your client, allowing him to pull you along. Never get more excited than your prospect.

Law #3 If you trap your clients, they’ll run.

When you pursue a sale in the traditional way, you, in essence, stand over your client, trapping them so that it is nowhere for them to go but out the door. Your goal should always be to leave your client an escape hatch.

How Often Do We Buy into False Assumptions?

/in , , , , /by

It’s ridiculous how many assumptions we buy into throughout our life.

Assumptions are healthy. They allow us to navigate the world while not thinking about each and every decision. HOWEVER, the curse of that is that we assume things to be true that just aren’t. On this episode of The 2X Podcast, Bill gives you some deeper things to think about when it comes to our judgment and beliefs. You’ll begin to realize where you buy into old thinking.

He’ll also detail a handful of these assumptions that you must alter if you are to 2X your income this year.
