Hey...Don't Bring Me Down!


Ever been there? I bet you have...

This evening I had a conversation with a business partner...

At the end of the conversation I put the phone down and I could tell that my mood had changed.

How constructive was that?

Relationships all come down to dynamics.

If you come away from a conversation with a negative feeling for whatever reason...then it can have a serious effect on your self-confidence if you let it.

Now...because I am aware of these feelings and the impact that they can have on me...after a couple of minutes...I CHOOSE not to let it get to me!

And............I think that I'm over it now! lol

All joking aside...it's easy to see why taking the 'lead' in any discussion can end up with a lopsided 'result'.

Your view of what you deem success might well be completely different to the person that you are talking to.

If that happens...then it's almost as if someone puts a pin into your balloon.

All of a sudden...it's almost as if your achievements are a crumpled heap on the floor instead of being wonderful, free-floating, and carefree.
That's why I try never to impose my views on other people.

Why?

Because...even with the best of intentions...you NEVER know whether you are thinking off of the same scale!

Relationships are key to both business and personal success...and, if you finish a conversation standing taller than the other person...then eventually they are going to want to knee-cap you!
