The “Easy” Sell

Megaphone Woman1 248x300 The “Easy” SellImagine this scenario: You’re on your way to a meeting at a large company that’s interested in your ideas. You’re running late. You hurry through the lobby, race into the elevator only to discover that you’re face-to-face with one of the most important and influential decision makers in your field. It would take at least three meetings before you could even meet her in person. It’s just you and her and she’s getting off on the next floor. You’ve got literally 30 seconds. You turn to her and open your mouth to speak…

Does this scenario make you feel anxious or at ease?

For a lot of reasons, which won’t matter anymore after you read this, self-promotion can be a hard thing to do. We’ve all experienced the old “hard” sell and usually ended up walking away with a bad taste in our mouth or were pressured into something that gave us immediate buyer’s remorse (this is how we ended up with three blenders we didn’t really need).

The truth is that if you want to be rich, in every sense of the word, you have to embrace the art of the “easy” sell. Don’t mistake this for kicking back and waiting for others to discover you and your life-changing product or service. That will get you to the bottom of nowhere in a hurry. We’re referring to a living, breathing, eating, sleeping, walking, talking, never give up commitment to letting the world know how amazing you are! The “easy” sell is so easy because it’s in how you live your life.

You have to realize that if you want to get anywhere in life, especially if you want to get RICH, you have to start asking for it! To do that you have to promote your value with unending passion and enthusiasm! You need to be your own raving fan!  When someone asks about your product or service, or even your ideas, you need to be 1,000,000% committed, excited, and certain about what you’re saying. In everything you do and every interaction you have, you’re broadcasting to the world that you have something incredible to offer.

A few things to think about when coming up with your “Easy” Sell:

1. We’ve all had past bad experiences in which we were promoted to inappropriately— a.k.a. the “hard” sell. Not taking no for an answer, constantly following up at inopportune moments. Be grateful for past bad experiences because there is always something to learn. Flip it around! If you were passionate and enthusiastic about your product or service, would you take no for an answer? Would you be following up and reaching out again and again? Would you make a “hard” sell?  

2. You might have had a disempowering experience when you tried to sell something to someone and were totally rejected. Same deal! What did you learn from the experience? Maybe your dislike for promotion is attached to your fear of failure and rejection. You have to realize by now that the past does not necessarily equal the future.

3. When we were young and impressionable whippersnappers, many of us were told that it’s impolite to “toot one’s own horn.” We’re gonna break it down for you (Miss Manners —earmuffs please!). In the real world, when it comes to YOUR business and YOUR money, if you don’t toot your horn, nobody will. In fact, we strongly endorse that each and every day, you should be playing reveille at the top of your lungs! Try it! Broadcast your virtues and values every chance you get and see what comes rolling your way!

4. Something you should definitely avoid is ever feeling that promotion is beneath you. The only thing that’s ever going to be beneath you is the earth under your feet. Never sit around waiting for the phone to ring. Never wait for people to come to you.

Start Tootin’ that Horn,

Now it's your turn!   What do you have to offer? Give us your most passionate and enthusiastic 30-second elevator pitch! We’d love to hear from you!

You’re Incredible and You Deserve It!


Happy.Rich You’re Incredible and You Deserve It!

Wow! We just realized something HUGE! Are you sitting down? Good. You’re going to love this: Did you know that you can be rich AND a good person? Think about it: What have you heard your entire life about rich people? If “Filthy Rich,” “Rich Snobs” and “Money-grubbing Penny Pinchers” (yikes!) are part of your vocabulary, you might be in trouble.

You have to realize that if you view rich people as bad in any way, shape or form and you want to be a good person, then clearly by that logic you can never be rich. It’s impossible! How can you be something you despise?

The key here is to understand that regardless of their reason for wanting all that money, the problem isn’t with the rich people— it’s all in your head. Remember, your opinions make no difference to anyone else's happiness or wealth, but they make a huge difference to YOUR happiness and wealth.

Here it is: Not every rich person is a Bernie Madoff or an Ebenezer Scrooge. For every terrible rich person, there are probably 100 amazing ones. Look at the news! Did you know that Bill Gates and Warren Buffet have influenced 40 of the world’s richest people to pledge half of their fortunes to charitable donations? That’s $125 billion dollars. BILLION!!! Click here for more info: http://givingpledge.org

Instead of resenting rich people, you should be admiring and loving rich people. That way you can begin to shift your mindset and unconsciously know that when you become rich, other people will admire and love you instead of resent the heck out of you the way you might do them now.

Always celebrate the win (no matter who it’s for!) because it just might be your turn next. Always give back more than you receive. Starting now, anytime you see someone succeed say to him/her and to yourself: “You’re incredible and you deserve it.”

Now it’s your turn!  Knowing this, what are new words you can associate to rich people? “Beautifully Rich,” “Rich Souls,” “Money-giving Penny Providers”? Ok that last one was a stretch, but you get what we mean. Post your best saying for rich people below—we can’t wait to hear from you!

Your Peak Potentials Team

PS:  You’re incredible and you deserve it (see how easy that was?)!

Beware of Frenemies!


Escape Beware of Frenemies!


Sometimes ‘not-yet-rich’ people can be uncomfortable with ‘rich’ people, or even ‘on-their-way-to-becoming-rich’ people because they’re either afraid of rejection or they feel like they don’t belong. To protect themselves, they lean on using judgment and criticism to feel better. Anyone guilty of this (our hands are raised)?

The truth is we’re all human. We can all have knee-jerk reactions, but the trick is taking the time to stop, breathe and change your mindset. Remember “You’re incredible and you deserve it?” Go back and read that blog again!

On the other end of the spectrum, sometimes the judgment and criticism can go so far that people get stuck in the gravitational pull and can never get out of that mindset. Beware: These people are the frenemy!

The frenemy is a non-supportive, energy/time/money draining, toxic, needy, manipulative, walking disaster-y, soul-sucking arch-nemesis masquerading as your friend. We all have them and sometimes we’ve had them for so long it’s difficult to even identify your frenemies, let alone get them out of your life!

One way of dealing with a frenemy is to limit your interaction. Stop giving them the opportunity to sink their hooks in. Make yourself busy/unavailable, limit the conversation to lighter topics, meet in neutral territory, but whatever you do, avoid getting sucked in to the gravitational pull!

Worse comes to worst, if you just can’t handle their negative energy anymore, if it’s bringing you down to a point where you’re not able to grow, you may have to make some serious (and courageous) decisions about who you are and how you want to live the rest of your life. If you find yourself in a situation like this, your first priority is to find the nearest escape pod, strap in and get the heck out of there.

Think about it this way: Energy is contagious! Either you affect people or infect people. The same holds true the opposite way around; either people affect or infect you. Which bug would you rather catch?

So here it is: Start making it a point to only associate with successful, positive people, and just as importantly, disassociate from negative ones.

Hit the ‘Escape’ key and get out of there!

Your Peak Potentials Team

Now it's your turn!  The way we see it, there are over 6 billion people in the world and there’s no way you should have to get stuck with a downer. Do you have a story about a frenemy? What did you do? Did they move up, or did you move on? We want to hear from you!

Are Your Friends Making You Poor?


Friends Poor Are Your Friends Making You Poor?

Did you know that the fastest and easiest way to create wealth is to learn exactly how rich people do it and copy everything they do? It just makes sense: if you take the exact same actions and have the exact same mind-set, chances are good you will get the exact same results. Yes? Of COURSE yes!!!

So how do you do it? Start with your peer group. Did you know that most people earn within 20 percent of the average income of their closest friends? If you were to hang out with a group of millionaires your income would be at least $200,000! Not too shabby!

Put this in your pocket for later: In order to become rich, you must very carefully choose whom you spend your time with.

There’s a reason that rich people hang out with other rich people (besides the food). Wealth is contagious! Rich people don’t just join the country club to play golf; they join to connect with other rich and successful people. You’ve probably heard the saying “Birds of a feather flock together.” When it comes to being rich, this is so true it hurts.

It’s also a matter of comfort. Rich people are comfortable with other successful people. They feel fully worthy of being with them. There’s an understanding amongst those who have built incredible wealth— a limitation-free and forward-driven mindset that attracts them towards one another!

Not only that, successful people look at other successful people as a means to motivate themselves even further. They see other successful people as models to learn from and partners to grow with. They say to themselves, “If they can do it, I can do it” and “We can do it together.” Surrounded by their peers and people who challenge them directly or indirectly, rich people can constantly improve, grow, and become even richer!

If you could succeed just by association, what would immediately become possible? What are some ways that you can start to change your peer group?

Wealthy-see, Wealthy-do!

Your Peak Potentials Team

Now it’s your turn!  Who is a great role model (living or deceased) that you can learn from? Warren Buffett? Ted Turner? Mary Kay? Oprah? We’d love to hear from you!

Are you a Lucky Duck?


 

You have to know by now that while there are a lot of ways to put yourself Picture 21 Are you a Lucky Duck?on an intersect with wealth and prosperity, there’s also a certain element of luck associated with getting rich or finding any kind of success.

Take for example a guy that purchases a fantastically catchy web address for his website about pizza and goes on to sell it for $2.6 million. Or a land developer that invests in property in the middle of nowhere that suddenly becomes the middle of somewhere.

What do they both have in common? They could be brilliant strategy and preparation, or it could just be just sheer luck. Or both. Who knows!? The one thing we know for sure is that they stepped up to the banks of life’s river and jumped in with no hesitation. They took to success like ducks to water.

Here it is: No luck, or anything worthwhile for that matter, will ever come your way unless you take some form of action.

As our dear friend Brian Tracy says, “I've found that luck is quite predictable. If you want more luck, take more chances. Be more active. Show up more often.” And we couldn’t agree more.

It’s the same with finances. To succeed financially, you have to do something, buy something, or start something in order to get anywhere. And when you do, is it luck or is it the Universe (yay!) supporting you in its miraculous ways for having the courage and commitment to go for it? As far as we’re concerned, who cares? It just happens!

Rich people see an opportunity, jump on it, and get even richer. As for not-rich people, they’re still “preparing” on the banks of that river! Stop preparing to get rich and start getting rich NOW. Get those feathers wet! Trust in yourself and your abilities. Know that you can make intelligent decisions in the spur of the moment, make corrections with certainty and strength and paddle your way to success.

Also remember that what you focus on expands! Always think about what you want, instead of what you don’t want. Continue being overwhelmed by the amount of opportunities around you to become rich and you’ll find yourself there faster than you can say, “I’m a lucky duck!”

-Your Peak Potentials Team

We want to hear from you! When is that last time you felt lucky? What fell into place? What became possible? What did you achieve? We’d love to hear your lucky duck story!

Come on in… the water’s RICH!

Swimming Come on in… the water’s RICH!

Did you know that there are no straight lines in the universe? (Note: we checked with the universe, but all we got back was a smirk and a wink, so we’re going with yes.) None! Don’t believe us? Try making a plan with no wiggle room and watch as those obstacles come rolling down the mountain!

Those of us who’ve learned this lesson (usually the hard way!) now know that life’s more of a winding river than a straight line; complete with raging rapids, smooth sailing and even the occasional waterfall (or two) to show us what we’re really made of. With every twist and turn, we get little glimpses of what’s coming our way, with every obstacle or opportunity we meet, there’s comfort in knowing that, no matter how good or bad it gets, the current will always keep us moving forward.

So here it is: Focus on opportunities and tune out the obstacles. In fact, let’s take the word obstacle out of your vocabulary! Pick it up by its squirmy little britches and drop kick it out the nearest window. Once he’s road pancake you can make room for your new best friend— opportunity. From here on out, every boulder that comes down the mountain, every time life comes out a-swingin’ it’s just opportunity knocking at your door, reminding you of everything you’re capable of.

If we know the river of life is where it’s at, you have one thing to ask yourself: what are you still doing standing on the sidelines? Get in there! You’ll be surprised how quickly the current can pull you toward all the success and opportunity that’s waiting for you downriver that you would never have known was there if you hadn’t jumped in.

Expect to succeed.

Be confident, and get in the game with whatever you’ve got.

The next time life throws an opportunity in your way (see what we did there?), take a breath and remember that the key is to tweak your mindset from “It won’t work” to “I sure hope this works” to “OF COURSE THIS WILL WORK!”

And in the worst of cases, as Harv always says, “Action always beats inaction,” and he tends to know what he’s talking about … so JUMP IN!!!

Happy Paddling!

The Power of a Thriving Community

hands 300x207 The Power of a Thriving Community“Elements of frequency and ongoing support are important to lasting change.” – T.Harv Eker

We often refer to the word power to describe the energy behind a concept that drives us to take action, such as the power of verbal conditioning, of intention, of simplification and of absolute choice. Reclaiming your power and making a commitment to change can feel a bit overwhelming when you are trying to navigate through it alone. We here on the Peak Potentials team are proud to say we have changed the lives of over 1 million people all over the world and our new blog site will act as an extended Peaks community. It will provide a new place to connect with like-minded peers that have similar interests; interests such as creating happiness, building new business opportunities and creating even more wealth that we could ever imagine.

The Peak Potentials community is set up to allow us to adopt new ways of thinking that support an abundance of happiness and success. This community is for you, and we hope to see you back here often! It takes effort and the right tools to rewire your financial blueprint, and it also takes the right support system to maximize your efforts. Having a community of people who share a common philosophy and purpose can increase your results exponentially. When breakthroughs are being made and consciousness is being raised with the help of others that cooperative spirit is like no other energy. When you consider the teachings of Wealth File #10: Rich people are excellent receivers, poor people are poor receivers, your success is based on accepting that you are worthy of receiving. By being a part of our community you have the opportunity to train the universe to give you what you want through engaging with a powerful mastermind peer group. The Peaks community will help with sharpening your focus so that it expands in ways you never thought were possible. You can have a quality support system around you in all aspects of your life and it starts with being conscious of your thoughts and actions when building the relationships you want and deserve.

3 Tips for Building Better Relationships

Whether you are connecting with others online or offline, you must take the responsibility for the success of attracting and developing quality relationships based on your actions. Focus your attention on these three elements and tap into the energy and benefits of having quality relationships in your life.

  1. Be authentic –Curb your need for approval, be yourself and you will be surprised by how much easier your relationships are to foster.
  2. Let go of  judgment – By judging others you not only close your mind to positive possibilities, but your judgment has more to do with how you see yourself than the actual character of the other person.
  3. Attract positive people – The easiest way to be surrounded by positive and supportive people is to be exactly that. Like attracts like, so if you don’t want others dragging you down, model what you want in your life.

Our new blog site is a supportive place for you to be yourself, release your judgments and attract the right people in your life. Our focus is to add value to you with new and engaging content as well as provide a platform for our members to benefit from a Peaks peer group. Here you will have the ability to connect with other members for insight, support and accountability. Many of us get into the habit of making commitments to ourselves (I will start a savings account next week, I will begin paying off my debt next month) and we seldom keep them. The Peaks community will be a safe and encouraging place for you to evoke the power of commitment for the purposes of creating greater success and be held accountable by people that genuinely care about your success. “Consciousness is observing your thoughts and actions, so that you can operate from true choice in the present.” – T. Harv Eker

Regular, consistent interaction with like-minded people will raise your level of consciousness. In the Peaks community you will be surrounded by positive, successful people from whom you can learn their strategies and model their mindset. Welcome to your new online home icon smile The Power of a Thriving Community We look forward to connecting with you! We love comments, so make sure to leave a comment below and let us know your thoughts.  What do you see as the benefits of a close peer group?  How has your peer group supported you?  We want to hear from you!
