The Secret Assassin Within

When I read great books from the guru's who say that it's working harder and smarter than your competition that makes the difference between success and failure, I've known salespeople who work hard, but never make it and those who are very lazy and achieve outstanding success, it doesn't make sense, but haveing trained and worked closely with all types of sales people over the last 16 years, I have realized that their is glue that you need for sales success and it's called SELF BELIEF, without it your left with an uphill climb.You can be smart and hard working, but if all you do is beat yourself up about what you should have done every time things don't go to plan, you start to train yourself for failure and you will end up on the slippery slope and become very frustrated with sales and life in general.
Is that you?
If you feel yourself going that way, change your habits and take the positives in everything you do, tell yourself that you are the number one salesperson in your company, love and approve of yourself, get active, get alert, look at the postives in everything you do. You will start to feel great and your SELF BELIEF will start to grow within. Be the best you can possibly be and keep telling yourself that you are a great person and be positive with all the customers you meet, take an interest in them, the payback will be great. Your customers will love you and you will start to love yourself and your bank balance.
Smile, have fun P J Stevens

Victoria's Secret - Too Sexy? Victoria's Secret - Too Sexy? - This will be upsetting for some men. I just heard a report about Victoria's Secret and it was interesting. Their sales were down drastically in the 4th quarter of 2007 and the report was about how they are thinking the company has gotten too far away from the heritage that made it the blockbuster company it is. They are thinking the ads etc have become too sexy and the plan (at the moment) is to make the ads more sophisticated. That would be like the Super Bowl commercial which was very tasteful, but very different from any Victoria's Secret I've seen lately. Who do you all think the current sexy ads are targeting? I think its the men that they hope will buy these items for their female significant others. I hate to give Omarosa any kudos - but most women aren't "sold" on an item by an ad of a near naked sexy woman. Shri
Re: Success Re: Success - I study success intently, and would like to share: Here's two excellent and nearly identical success-formulas from a couple of the world's masters. FIRST FORMULA: 1. Passionate Desire 2. Clear, Definite Purpose 3. Committed Decision 4. Take Action In Faith (Bonus Secret Sauce: 5. Repeat Consistently) I made a video about this, but am not allowed to link it yet. Google "Ryze Success Steps" for it. Oh, and this is Napoleon Hill's (Master Of Success Laws)'s Formula. SECOND FORMULA: 1. Passionate Desire 2. Understand It Is Already Done (Faith) 3. Relax & Allow It To Unfold (Go about your life calmly) This one is courtesy of Abraham-Hicks (inspiration for the movie The Secret). Hope that helps!
