Overcoming False Evidence Appearing Real

Overcoming False Evidence Appearing Real

Overcoming False Evidence Appearing Real

Charles William Petty

Overcoming F.E.A.R.

Most of us have heard what this acronym stands for:

F - False E - Evidence A- Appearing R - Real

A lot of us don't realize how this can truly impact our life.

In real estate investing, as in any venture in your life, you will have to step out on faith. This simply means that you believe that something good will happen; that you will be able to make it work. Stepping out on faith means that you believe in yourself. This doesn't mean that you go off half-cocked, but that you prepare yourself and know that you will be able to deal with the unknown.

This can be a scary thing. Stepping out on faith is not something that many of us are comfortable with. In fact, we often talk ourselves out of doing something, rather than into it. Then, there are all the well-intentioned naysayers in our lives. They take their fears and put them onto us. They mean well, but they can make you miss out on your dreams. They would never have the guts to go out and do something like this, and they can't see you doing it either. They don't see themselves as snatching your dream away. They probably think that they are protecting you. But many times, snatch away your dreams is exactly what they do.

It is okay to be afraid when you are starting something new. It is perfectly normal. The important thing to remember is that you can't let that fear stop you. You can use it as a tool to make sure you are prepared. Fear will make you feel a little on edge. Use that extra energy to make sure that you have all of your decks in a row. Make sure that you are as prepared as you can be. Use the fear, don't let it paralyze you.

Educate yourself. Get coaching. Find a mentor. Do what you can to prepare yourself. But remember, at some point, you will have to stop preparing and do something. You will have to step out on faith. That is a good thing. It allows you to test yourself and the courage of your convictions. Things probably won't work out exactly liked you planned. And that is okay too. It is when we are dealing with challenges that we learn new ways of doing things. We see things in a different light. In fact, we see ourselves in a different light. You might not know how strong you really are until you put yourself out there. You won't know what you can truly accomplish until you push yourself.

So remember, it is okay to be afraid. Fear can't hurt you, unless you let it stop you; instead, step out on faith.

Remember, faith can move mountains.

How To Become A Knowledgeable

How to Become a Knowledgeable

How to Become a Knowledgeable "Toucher"...

MBFlynn

Building and maintaining relationships with your clients is one of the most important things you can do. Consistently provide them with relevant, useful information. Do this at LEAST once a month. Don't sit back and wait for them to contact you, let them know you're out there! They'll welcome the attention as long as you're providing useful, relevant information.

Establishing and maintaining relationships with your clients builds loyalty.

Stay current with news. Learn a new skill. Research a new product. Keep yourself motivated and educated. Become an "expert" in a particular product.

Don't underestimate the efforts of your competition. If they're doing what you're not to establish and maintain relationships with your clients, you may lose them.

Talk to other professionals in related fields (Attorneys, CPA's, Investment Advisors, Real Estate Agents). Form a network of trusted professionals that you can refer to. Become the "go to" person for your clients, and you'll be providing them with value, not just service. This is also a great way to give and receive referrals.

providing your clients with added value, they'll feel compelled to refer you to their friends, family and business associates.

building relationships with your clients, they will feel confident in involving you in more of their long-term planning and consolidation.

Determine the types of clients you want. Identify a single, exclusive demographic of your "ideal" client, and concentrate your relationship building efforts on their specific needs and demands.

Learn all you can about what's important to that particular market. Use this information to work with the clients you want, and bypass the clients you don't want. Or, for example, if you want to target a particular type of business, learn all you can about the business, what's important to the owners and employees, what their fears and desires are and target your marketing efforts.

As an example, you could target your marketing efforts specifically to automotive dealerships. Or even more specifically, managers of auto dealerships. Learn all you can about their world. What their concerns are. What issues do they deal with?

The Brain And Persuasion

The Brain and Persuasion

The Brain and Persuasion

"The existence of forgetting has never been proved: We only know that some things don't come to mind when we want them." ~ Friedrich Nietzsche

You know the feeling, it's frustrating, it's annoying, and maybe it's a little embarrassing. It's that feeling of having something at the tip of your tongue, something you once knew, but no longer do, something, maybe, as simple as the three branches of the United States government or an anniversary (that can put you in the doghouse) or the name of a business associate or client who you've been working with for a while (yikes!).

It happens to the best of us. . . our cognitive abilities seem to decline as the years march on. But is this something that is a given? Or can we lessen or prevent the 'senior moments? (even if we are not seniors) we experience as a result of us not using our brains and allowing them to be all that they can be?

Some people keep their brains agile with crossword puzzles or Sudoku or ?brain twisters? or play games such as Scrabble if they like the more social aspect. These are all great activities to "aerobically exercise" the mind.

Studies have shown that older adults neither see, hear, taste, nor feel as accurately as younger people do and this is partially due to the fact that once people retire, they tend to do things that they are good at, things that don't challenge them incredibly. So part of the key to keeping your brain agile is giving it new, different activities and problems to challenge it.

There are also biochemical responses that are vital to stimulating the mind and inspiring people to keep learning. When we are young we have the freshness of everything, a novelty in the unexplored that keeps us engaged in the process of learning. The other thing we have going for us, which when you're a kid is a huge motivator, is the concept of being rewarded for what we do.

So how can I apply this to persuasion? Well, when we study persuasion, a fortunate byproduct is that we enhance our brains immeasurably through the challenges of thinking a new way.

In studying things like the 36 Chinese stratagems, or the 24 Doorways of the Magical Objection Mastery, we are flexing, swinging from the macro to micro. It can be thought of as looking at problems with a telescope, a broad overview, and then alternately taking a microscope and really hashing out the details.

What does this do for us and why do our brains find it so challenging? Well, maybe it's not a part of your brain you use very often. Enhancing our cognitive agility can be hard, but is so worth the effort.
