Let Other People Wait  . . . . But Not You

“The doers in life get things done. While others

are waiting their life away waiting for

their ship to come in.

As I see it . . . . . . . .

Let other people wait . . . . but not you 

Far too many people will sit on the edge of the dock . . . .  waiting for their success ship to come in . . . . while others are out there working for their success.

The doers get things done . . . .  while other are waiting there life away for something to come along.

The person that waits for success will find that the world will pass them by . . . . while they remain steadfast in their thinking that success will come to them.

The best time to take your success journey to the next level . . . . is now.

Don’t wait . . . . for your ship to come in . . . . be proactive and go after your goals with the determination that you will achieve them.

Success is achieved in incremental steps that move you in the direction to achieve your goals. . . . Success is the result of continued and focused effort in the direction of successfully achieving your goals.

Let people wait . . . . but not you. Be a doer . . . .  and don’t wait for success go out . . . . and create the success you want.

In Negotiations Focus on the Outcome

Motivational Power Quote

In Negotiations Focus on the Outcome

“In negotiation, “yes’ is the worst word. It just betrays fear of

failure and fear of losing the deal, and it primes you to please

the other side, to rush ahead, to compromise early and often,

to come to a deal any deal.”

Jim Camp, Author and Renowned Negotiations, Trainer

and Coach  

As I see it . . . . . . .

In negotiations focus on the outcome

As you prepare yourself to negotiate . . . . ask yourself:

• What is the desired outcome of the negotiations – your plan A?

• What is your plan B in the event that your plan A is not achievable?

• What concessions are you willing to make in order to complete the

  negotiations successfully?

• What are your limits in the negotiations – your maximum concessions?

• What’s your bottom line?

• What will you not negotiate?

• What is your walk away point?

• What can you offer (concession) the other party in order to help you to   

  get what you want out of the negotiations?

All negotiations are a series of give and take in order to reach a meeting of the minds.

If you attempt to back the other party into a corner it will result in resistance and very likely a breakdown in the negotiations. When you help to guide the other person they are far more likely to cooperate to find a common ground and to successfully negotiate.    

In negotiations focus on the outcome . . . . and you won’t have to yes yourself into a less then desirable outcome.
