Aches Vs. Pains

Bryan Flanagan is one of the top trainers for The Ziglar Corporation and he has something beautiful to say. Our company Inspire Inc. has been licensed to do their sales and presentation programs and Flanagan gets us thinking so I would like you to listen to this. Flanagan says:

How much money do you make on the sales you almost close? I mean, when you get real close? When the prospect is about to sign the agreement, or about to say “yes,” how much do you make when the sale is that close? That’s right... you make the same amount of money as I do on the sales I almost close: zero, nada, zip!

So, do you ever wonder why you don’t win more of the “close ones”? The answer may be the difference between “ache” and “pain.” Most prospects don’t take action until they are in enough “pain” to change their current situation. They may have some discomfort, they may have some pain. But they are not hurting enough to discontinue using the incumbent competitor and switching to your company. Perhaps this story will illustrate the point.
Two West Texas farmers were talking one afternoon. The visiting rancher noticed his friend’s dog lying on the porch. The dog was moaning. He asked, “Why is your dog moaning?” The answer, “Well, he’s lying on a nail. But he’s not in enough pain to move!”
Until your prospect is in “enough pain to move” — to take action — then the prospect will not change — will not agree to buy your product or service.
Your challenge as a sales professional is to uncover the prospect’s pain. In order to achieve this, you must assist the prospect in becoming aware of the existing needs, the existing “pain.” This is achieved by asking appropriate questions. Here are a few examples:

• “Mr. Prospect, how satisfied are you with your current situation? Are you dissatisfied enough to take action today?”
• “Mr. Prospect, if you could change your current situation, what would be the benefit to you?”
• “Mr. Prospect, if you could receive greater coverage at lower costs, how would that impact your budget?”
• These questions are intended to move the prospect from being in an “ache position” to a “pain position.” Once the prospect is in pain, your chances of winning the business are increased...
• Now go sell somebody something!

And as I think about this another life principle pops up in my mind.
Most people are living with bad habits and they are aching but they are not yet in pain enough to decide to stop what they are doing.
Procrastination. Bad temper. A sharp tongue. Toxic vocabulary. Bad attitude. Tardiness. Pride. Excess baggage they lug around with them all day long and they’re aching, but not yet in pain so they move about just the same.
One small lapse of judgment every day. One bad thought. One bad word. One tiny little slander. One small piece of juicy gossip. One malicious innuendo. Collect all these small stuff every day and in 6 years you will no longer have an ache, you will have a disaster that leads to pain.
Wise people wake up in the morning and pray. Seek God’s Presence and say, “Search me for hidden sins and change me for the better.”
This is what makes champions win.
So are we in pain enough to remove our aches?
We just have to be honest.

Oops! and Mistakes!

One day an extremely upset newspaper subscriber stormed into a newspaper office waving the current edition, asking to see "whoever wrote the obituary column".
When referred to a young reporter, he stormed, "You can see I'm very much alive, and you've put me in the obituary column! I demand a retraction!"
Replied the reporter, "I never retract a story but I tell you what I'll do. I'll put you in the birth column and give you a fresh start."
I certainly have.
Some people will never admit their mistakes and worst, some people will never want to correct their mistakes the proper way.
Have you ever committed mistakes in your life?

You’re probably thinking, “What a stupid question, of course I have.”
Well now that you have admitted you’re committing mistakes from time to time, how do you deal with your mistakes?
Mistakes that offend others, you have to be big and courageous enough to admit your mistake and make amends. But mistakes that you have done to yourself… think through them and learn from them. Mistakes are experiences in life that teach us lessons and make us wiser over time but the key thing here is that we have to learn from them.
When people say, “Experience is the best teacher….” I smile because I know this is not true. Only evaluated experience is the best teacher. As a people, we keep on making the same mistakes year in and year out because we have never taken the time to evaluate the experience, learn from it and resolve to correct it.
Smart people learn from their mistakes. But here is another thing to consider.
Smarter people learn from the mistakes of others.
Somebody says mistakes are mistakes but it’s a question of perspectives and it depends on how you really look at it.
Consider the following:

• If a barber makes a mistake, it’s a new style...
• If a driver makes a mistake, it is an accident...
• If an engineer makes a mistake, It is a new venture...
• If parents make a mistake, it is a new generation...
• If a politician makes a mistake, it is a new law...
• If a scientist makes a mistake, it is a new invention...
• If a tailor makes a mistake, it is a new fashion...
• If a teacher makes a mistake, it is a new theory...
• If our boss makes a mistake, it is our mistake......
• If an employee makes a mistake, It is a "MISTAKE"

I have committed a lot of mistakes in my life and some of them not very smart but most of them offered lessons I have learned from and has helped me a lot in my life and career today.
Some people cuss and some people curse when they make a mistakes but most people say: “oops!”
I do. But there are people I am sure you would not want to hear say “oops! From:”
1. Your surgeon.
2. Your dentist.
3. Your nurse.
4. Your hairdresser.
5. Your mechanic.
6. Your tax accountant.
7. The computer tech person.
8. The house painter, plumber or electrician.
9. The pilot.
You know you are growing and you know you are learning if you are making new mistakes. The key word here is “NEW.” But if you are committing the same kind of mistakes then YOU ARE THE MISTAKE!
Learn from the mistakes of others – you can never live long enough to make them all yourself.
CICERO, the Roman statesman and philosopher, wrote the following some 2,000 years ago: THE SIX FATAL MISTAKES OF MAN:

1. The delusion that personal gain is made by crushing others;
2. The tendency to worry about things that cannot be changed or corrected;
3. Insisting that a thing is impossible because we cannot accomplish it;
4. Refusing to set aside trivial preferences;
5. Neglecting development and refinement of the mind, and not acquiring the habit reading and studying;
6. Attempting to compel others to believe and live as we do.

Welcome mistakes. They are our friends but they should also be our teachers.
Accept them and do not defend them.
Elbert Hubbard says it best: "The greatest mistake a man can make is to be afraid to make one."

I Hate My Job

You hate your job. You’re thinking of quitting.

You are not happy and you find that you have to drag yourself out of bed every morning so you can go to work. If this is your situation then today’s message is for you.

Having a job you hate is never easy but sometimes you just need to grin and bear it until you have another gig lined up. Here are some productive things you may want to do:

1. START THE DAY WITH SOMETHING POSITIVE

Your daily morning ritual is extremely important. Start with being positive by doing something positive. Go to bed early and wake up early so you will have time to start the day with quiet meditation. A word of prayer. You may want to set your alarm to play upbeat or classical music, have a wonderful sip of coffee and read a section of an inspirational book and when you improve your mornings, you will be surprised at how this can do wonders for the rest of your day. Going into a job you hate will be worse if you get to the office feeling rushed, stressed and frazzled. Set aside some moments of solitude each morning.

2. KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE PRIZE

It is not true that everything about your job stinks. You are not working in the sewage are you? Do not exaggerate. There will always be something out there in your work life that will make you happy. So make weekly goals to help you achieve those goals.

But be careful with your daily goals too. Do one thing each day to help you reach your goals. Do not be too obsessed with crossing all your items off your “To-do-list” every day because this will frustrate you.

Sometimes it is easier to make it to 5 o’clock when you can keep your eye on the prize.

When you get up in the morning, set a daily objective for yourself and make sure you achieve it. This will give you a sense of accomplishment and keep you feeling good about your progress.

3. DEVELOP YOUR SKILLS.

You may not love your job for the moment but do not rot. Use your time to learn new skills. This way you are putting in you more value and worth and preparing yourself to be a better candidate down the road. Attend your company training courses, learn something new on your computer. Read books. Listen to tapes during lunch. Turn this job that you hate into an opportunity for personal growth and improvement.

4. EXERCISE.

Your problems and challenges become bigger than life when you are weak and unhealthy. So go to the gym. Run. Take a nice long walk. Put these activities in your schedule so that will have something to look forward to every day.

5. CELEBRATE

Fine little ways of treating yourself. Celebrate your victories. You beat the deadline. Your boss compliments you. Find out what makes you feel better inside, no matter what is going on outside. Plan out your next vacation. Join a small group. I know so many young people who are involved with Bible study groups and they really look forward to their weekly meetings. I guess here they all meet together and pray that God be merciful with their bosses. (joke….don’t take me seriously here…..)

6. IMPROVE YOUR PERFORMANCE

It doesn’t matter whether you like your job or you hate it. You must make it your goal to go to the next level and excel in what you do. Never for a moment think that just because you are employed you are working for somebody else. Your current accomplishments will be your equipment in future opportunities.

7. ALWAYS BE POSITIVE

Do not let your unhappiness in your job destroy your relationship with people. Maintain your contacts and keep your relationships positive. And this included the boss you love to hate. Realize that this too shall pass. Keep your chin up and be a professional.

If you are faithful in the small things then big things are bound to come.

Helen Keller says: “Keep your face in the sunshine and you can never see the shadow.”

Believe me, there is sunshine even in your cubicle.
