Some People have to be “Right”

I’m Right

That’s right. It’s right. He’s right. She’s right. Those words are echoed every day by millions of people. Once we decide we are right, an abundance of energy goes into defending our rightness. However, if we look at the situation objectively, we will quickly become aware that we are never right or wrong.

Your way may be a good way, it can be a valid way, it might even be a better way – but it will never be the right way. The minute you believe your way is the right way, all other ways will be wrong. That attitude will quickly paralyze progress because people hate to be told they’re wrong and they will resist you even if you are right. It will also shut down your creative juices because maintaining your right position prevents one from being open to new ideas.

–Bob Proctor

Bill’s Note: As business owners Sometimes when we speak about the benefits of our product or services some people will interpret the information as though we’re telling them that they’re wrong for using the products or services they’re currently using. At that point all you can do is ask them if they’re “open” to receiving new information. Then give it to them and tell them to get back with you. Let them be “right” until such time as they’re ready to entertain new ideas. Leave the door open and move on to prospects that are open and ready to make a change.

PS: Getting over always having to be “right” was my greatest hurdle in my life. In both my previous career and my current one -When I gave up my need to be right…then and only then did my business grow beyond my imagination.

Ultimately there are always three sides to every story – His, Hers and the Truth – which is usually somewhere in between.

The “I’m too busy” excuse

Here’s a short clip that addresses the “I’m too busy” excuse. (<3min)

Why is it some people make $10,000 in a day and others just $10 bucks?

We all have “stuff” like births, deaths, kid activities, doctor, dentist, salon, car, pet and other appointments, etc etc AND We all have exactly the same 24 hours per day, it’s what we DO with them that makes the difference because >

We all make the time, and find the resources, for the things we’re committed to.

Coke Plans China Push

Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, China Daily August 22, 2011

BEIJING: Coca-Cola, the soft drinks giant, plans to spend $4bn in China in the next three years, on a range of marketing-related areas from innovation to customer loyalty.

Muhtar Kent, Coca-Cola’s chief executive, told the WSJ; “It’s our third-largest global market, growing at double-digits. We work hard to demonstrate our long-term commitment not only through our business investment, but also by supporting China’s broader development goals.”

Kent said: “You create your fate two or three years before it happens, at least in the way our business works. “Besides our infrastructure and capabilities, the new investment will also focus on enhancing the consumer experience, ensuring product affordability and building brand loyalty which deliver sustainable growth.”

It is in your moments of decision that your destiny is created” –Tony Robbins

Decide to play big – or at least play to win – vs playing to “not lose”.
