preparing(with mind maps) content of two Business workshops- Birmingham -July on (1) Building Relationships and (2) Thinking and Creativity #
Soon to start rehearsing with my mate Pete for the Open Mike tonight at the Cock and Magpie in Bewdley Worcestershire (just down the road) #
Just about to make hay whilst the sun shines. Taking some books just received from Amazon out into the garden to read. Will post reviews. #
Wow is it hot here in Sunny Stourport 24 degrees in the shade. Reading a book by Frank Bettger on Sales with the foreword by Dale Carnegie! #
Frank Bettger’s 1st insight, from “How I raised myself from failure to success in Selling”- you can acquire enthusiasm- just be enthusiastic #
Bettger’s 2nd insight- how was he going to keep seeing the people to sell the life insurance? Kept complete records for 12months that’s how #
Bettger’s records showed that in 1 year he made 1849 calls, saw 828 people,closed 65 sales- so each call was worth (making) to him $2.30. #
The biggest enemy that Bettger had to face? The fear of making a fool in front of groups. So he took a speaking course- with Dale Carnegie! #
Been a long day, started 7am Worcester Breakfast Club; in Birmingham all day (and boy did it rain),circuit training tonight, meal, & bath! #
Michael Jackson – a tragedy just waiting to happen? – finding a single ’cause’ for his death (or one thing to blame) is not really possible! #
Michael Jackson’s Toxicology Tests- 3days to do the scientific analysis- six weeks for many opinions to interpret results & agree a “cause”? #
