When I was in T Harv Eker's Millionaire Mind intensive, there's a clause that's always repeated again and again during the 3-days seminar:
"How you do anything is how you do everything"
Sound's weird but I guess it's true. Sometimes we're too easily blame on someone or something when things happen outside of our expectation. But in the end, it's on how we perceived things that controls our reaction.
Words, for example, shows who are you and how you perceived the people you're speaking with. The words that we frequently use will simply tell us how we believe other is looking at us. Let me show you an example:
I know someone who always put "Honestly,..." whenever he wanted to emphasize some points. While it does looks like he's trying to put some weight on the points, it also give the impression that, unless he said "honestly,..." , he's not honest. Same thing also when someone said "trust me..." occasionally. It mean that he fells that people does not want to trust him... And guess what: the implication will appear that nobody will actually trust him.
After evaluating myself, I found out that I often start a sentence with "You see..." While it sounds that I want to make sure that they got what I mean, it will also give the impression that I don't trust the other person that he will understand me. Simple? Not at all. Now here's a book I've read and I believe you should read it. While Dale Carnegie's "How to win friends and influence people" emphasize on looking at others, this book, by Rhonda Britten, is focusing entirely on your inner self.
Now this book works on 30 days basis. Similar to Rick Warren "Purpose Driven Life", the book "Change your life in 30 days" will show you how to examine yourself and change it.
The book is available on your bookstore and Libraries in Singapore.. No, I won't get any single penny to recommend this book for you but if you do want to thank me for the recommendation, then I recommend you to click on the Amazon widget and buy it online.
It's changing my life, and I'm sure you'll see the points on what I've written just now.
