The following is an exert from my book "Mindset To Sell" - Sell Anything To Anyone With Trust, Integrity and Authenticity....
"If your sales results aren't where you want them to be, rest assured it has nothing to do with your lack of ability or limited potential; quite the opposite is true.
It has everything to do with your internal beliefs and mental programming that you have developed over your lifetime. In many cases, these are other people's ideas and beliefs that have rubbed off on you over time, and unconsciously, you have accepted them to be true for you. These reinforced beliefs and attitudes form the habit patterns that control your behavior and ultimately the results you produce. These habits that become fixed in your thinking are known as your paradigm, which resides in your subconscious mind.
Your paradigm controls your results, your success as a sales professional, how much money you earn, your state of health, your relationships with others – it's all controlled by your paradigm.
Wow, I hear you say, that's quite a lot to take on board in one conversation. But don't worry, we break it down for you in simple, easy-to-follow steps and show you how to take control of your paradigm and be in charge of your sales performance. We focus on two key aspects of selling that, if mastered, will 10x your sales results and help you rise to the top of your field. As Bob Proctor would say, 'you'll need a telescope to look back and see where you have come from.' The first and most important part is your mindset or inner game of sales, and your strategy or system for success.
The only way to permanently change your sales results and get to where you want to be from where you are right now is to shift your paradigm to align with your goals. You will learn, as we go into paradigms in more depth in another chapter, that you can't outperform your paradigm, but you can change it through a systematic approach that we outline in this book.
This book is all about showing you the power of thinking from the inside out, rather than the outside in, which is typically how we tend to view the world.
The techniques and strategies outlined in this book are a culmination of my own personal experience in sales and leading high-performing teams, together with the tried and tested teachings and wisdom that I have gathered from a number of leading experts in personal development and success achievement, including Bob Proctor, Dr. Wayne Dyer, Napoleon Hill, Wallace Wattles, Dr. Joseph Murphy, Neville Goddard, Dr. Joe Dispenza, Mary Morresy, Bruce Lipton, and Esther & Jerry Hicks.
Now, in saying that, there are many great books – very old books, well researched and documented – with proven strategies that have been written about on this topic, a number of which I have read. The standout being 'Think and Grow Rich' by Napoleon Hill, an all-time bestseller, but there are many others as well. I have researched, tested, and included in this book because they work, pure and simple. Believe it or not, success, and in particular sales success, isn't a secret; it's a system and a science. Yet, for the majority of the human population, this still remains a secret. My mission in this book is to pass on to others what I have learned through study and personal experience. I want to give people the opportunity to connect with this information, learn how to tune into their potential, and create a life of purpose, prosperity, and fulfillment – ultimately being in charge of their own destiny."
