Growth Is Not A Four Letter Word
I recently received an email from a client informing me of a most unpleasant personal "learning experience". While these types of events will inevitably happen to all of us, it is often difficult to come to grips with the idea that this is just part of life. Especially if our learning experience has been a painful one, as they often tend to be. The thing which I find intriguing is that people frequently refer to these stressful events as "growth" experiences.

No More Resolutions...
What have you actually accomplished in this year of 2009? Can you look yourself squarely in the mirror and honestly declare that it was a successful year? Statistically... 98.2% of you can not make such an affirmation of “success” to yourself. While this statistic is true, it is also genuinely sad. The basis for this fact comes from a recent study that reported that 98.2% of all people do not achieve their goals or resolutions. The holidays are at hand and soon too will be the New Year. Do you know exactly where you are headed in 2010?

The One Question That You Can't Avoid...
Regardless of whether you operate a large corporation, home based business or are a sales professional... your future success may rest entirely on one single question. I have come to refer to it as... the “Magic Question”, because it's the one question that you simply can't avoid. Where ever you go in the future... a Chamber of Commerce function, business event, networking meeting, community activity, social event or even to the golf course, you will continually encounter new people.

The One Response Your Prospect Wants To Hear...
In my previous article, I addressed the subject of the question that you simply can’t avoid... the “Magic Question”. I hope that you have taken sufficient time to earnestly consider how you have fared in the past from your previous responses to the MQ. In like fashion, I also hope that you have begun the process of contemplating how you might more effectively “answer” the Magic Question in the future. I would like to begin this sequel article by making an inquiry of you... How many times in the past two weeks did someone actually ask you or your people The Magic Question? Once?
