Considering Others

I was both amused and angered upon opening this email. Amused at the ignorance and naivety of the author and angered by the belligerence of insinuating that people were lying to him.

Here's what he wrote...

When someone says “I can’t afford it,”...

REMEMBER :  it’s never about their money situation!

It’s always about their level of Commitment.

You know this to be true in your own life... when you've absolutely NEEDED money for something... you came up with it.   

The same goes for your potential clients. 

When they're committed to experiencing the Transformation you've promised them... your fee becomes a non-issue...

... Especially when your potential client discovers that the cost of NOT working with you is GREATER than the cost of working with you... they will almost always say YES!

But... how do you get them to see that the cost of not working with you is greater than the cost of working with you?

... Especially if you don’t want to be pushy or overstep boundaries?

While the content may be true there are still the fundamental human needs like food and a roof over your head. When they are taken care of then we may consider moving to the next level or taking the next step.

As motivators, counsellors and educators we have an obligation to meet people where they're at and assist them to see the path that leads to better ways of being and living.

Well I'll leave you to draw your own conclusions on this, and finish by saying that people don't care how much you know until they know how much you care.

After all your life can be changed in an instant.
