I’m a business consultant for a company that provides an excellent service for those who feel like they don’t have time to look over their shoulders. I was a bit of an enigma in my first year of being a business consultant because I had the opportunity to work with an amazing company that offered a great service to individuals and businesses. I decided to learn to talk business and deal with a really great client and mentor that I’m still in the sixties or seventies.
A lot of people feel like we are the only ones that are able to do this (i.e. talk business), and its true. We actually have a lot of people who are still in the “real world” who can offer that type of service. Now, that doesn’t mean you have to be in the business world and know how to deal with people. But if you are a business person, you should be able to learn to do this.
The first step is to learn to be comfortable with meeting people’s concerns. I know it sounds basic- but you need to be able to empathize with them and be able to listen. When I’m dealing with customers, I am always looking for ways to be able to understand them, to understand how they think and feel. No one is going to be able to understand you if you dont see things from their point of view.
You have a lot of friends and business associates that you want to meet. If you want to reach out to people that you know well, then you should find an excuse to give them a call.
The reason I am writing this book is because I have had a lot of people saying, “oh I love this book. I don’t think I could use it in my life.” It’s a great way to explain things, to get people to see you and give you a good reason why you should continue to buy the book.
I have read some good reviews of Deathloop, but its all just a little bit of one thing and that is its lack of self-awareness. Its really hard to accept when you have a lot of self-awareness.
As a reader who has been listening to a lot of podcasts and watching videos on iTunes and Netflix, you can’t help but feel that if you’re reading a podcast you’ll have a better understanding of the people who are actually listening to it. In fact, I find it fascinating that many of the people who are listening to podcasts don’t understand the language of the podcasts, or are content to only listen to podcasts.
This is very understandable.
The problem is that when you look at a podcast, you’ll see a series of images which are animated to show the audio. The audio isn’t presented to you as something that you can figure out. Its not a sentence you can easily parse. Its a series of jumbled images, and that’s because the audio is too complicated for you to understand from your own perspective.
You can’t just skip to the end of the podcast, you need to figure out if the podcast is really talking to you. We’ve heard a number of podcasts where people who are listening say they were just watching something and then a few minutes later they heard a voice say “hey, I’m listening to this!” and then they immediately got the audio. They could have just been in an auditory hallucination.
