    Prepare yourself before hand by knowing what your talking about. You do not truly know something unless you can make the case for something and the case against it. Test your ideas. You must have no doubt and be certain enough to take action. Once you have certainty that certainty can be given to others. You will have the ability to move mountains and blaze your own trail.

    If you believe in something so much be willing to put yourself on the line. If you are not willing to do something yourself then why would someone else do it. Be a leader by example. Take charge by showing and not telling people what to do. You must care and be selfless to make an impact on other people.

    Who are your biggest influences?

    You ability to be influenced by others is based upon your ability to be influenced. How aware are you of what exactly is going on in your mind when you are being influenced? When you see this shift happening in yourself you can make this shift happen in others. You must have full belief and be fully influenced to influence someone else.

    noiz viol8ion blog #636 – Caring > Knowing

    No one cares how much you know. People care how much you care. People want to see your passion. They want to see that you remember them. They want to know that you were listening to what they said. When watching sports people want to see effort and passion. This is how you establish your credibility with people. Let them know how much you care.

    Many times I am only focused on myself. How do I feel? What people are thinking of me? What am I doing? What are they doing for me? This world is to big to only think of myself. If I want to do anything significant I need to think about other people. I must think about other people’s feelings? I must think about what they are doing? What are they thinking? What do they need? I must be able to understand where people are coming from. I must care about them as much as I care about myself.

    noiz viol8ion blog #371 – How to be good at sales!

    To be good at sales you must let people sit in their own pain. The reason people are interesting in your product is because they have a current agitated state and your product can move them into their desired state. You are the link between their current state and their desired state. If they do not buy your product they will stay miserable. This is not rude but you must point this out to them.

    Ask probing questions to evoke an emotional response like what is their current pain and frustrations? What are their goals? What are they willing to do to get their?

    Have confidence and influence people for their own good.

    Blog #210 – What is Social Proof?

    People can be influenced easily by the masses. If someone is unsure of what to do they will often look to see what everyone else is doing and they will do that. This can be good or it can be very bad.

    In the book, Influence by Robert Cialdini, it talks about how after a public suicide is highlighted on the front page of the newspaper then the number suicides will go up. These are the people on the edge and then get validated. This is a drastic example of social proof but I think this could be why school shootings are up.

    We look to those around us for how we should act and what we should do.

    You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.

    Blog #206 – Salespeople start High then go Low

    Ask for more than what you want.

    It is human nature to want to negotiate and make deals. The price given is never the final price. There is always room to barter and negotiate.

    If you are a salesman then start with you most expensive items first. The customer will see these enormous price tags and be blown away. Then show them what they really want. When they see this more average price it will feel like a whole lot less than just going with the average price first.

    Blog #205 – Emphasize the contrast to influence people

    This strategy is to be used for ethical purposes only.

    When trying to influence people there are two things you must accentuate.

    1. The pain of their current situation. This extreme amount of pain will continue or get worse if they stay on their current trajectory.
    2. The pleasure of their dream situation. This is the immense amount of pleasure that will flood their body when they take the influenced action.

    This is how sales people and marketing people take advantage of the unsuspecting consumer.
