Feeling down about business? Act with ENTHUSIASM!!

Sep. 14, 2009

In our current economy, everyone faces challenges.  Now, more than ever, we need to nurture ourselves so we are prepared for each new day. 
 
With this in mind, I want to share some advice I gleaned many years ago from a book that Dale Carnegie described as 'The most helpful and inspiring book on salesmanship that I have ever read'.
 
How I Raised Myself From Failure to Success in Selling, was written by Frank Bettger in 1947 at the request of Dale Carnegie.
 
Here is the first in a series of Mr. Bettger's suggestions.  I hope you find these ideas useful!
 
Act with enthusiam! 
Chapter 1:  How One Idea Multiplied My Income And Happiness
 
No matter what you do....act with enthusiasm!
 
Enthusiasm is powerful.
It conquers our fear.
It is contagious.
 
When prospects are excited, they are more likely to buy our product.
It gives us the energy to persevere when we are challenged.
 
Don't feel enthusiastic at the moment?  No problem!  Fake it till you make it!
 
I challenge you.  For 30 days, act with enthusiasm.  See what effect it has on your business and your life.
 
Every day when you get out of bed, establish your own 'Enthusiasm Ritual'
Maybe you have an affirmation you enjoy.   Maybe you listen to happy music.  Maybe you move your body. 
 
Whatever your 'enthusiasm ritual' employ it faithfully for 30 days and expect great things!
 
To you continued success!!
