“Do you want to be right or do you want to be happy?” asked famed author and psychologist Dr. Gerald Jampolsky.

 

Well...honestly Gerald, the answer is - BOTH!

 

And that’s the problem.

 

There’s a lot of power in willing to be wrong including:

 

* Fewer apologies

* Others defending your position for you

* Personal growth

 

If you really want to Win Friends and Influence People, you’ve got to be willing to be wrong and it’s actually a learnable skill...

You would think that none of us would ever have to be taught this skill for dealing effectively with other people.

 

But honestly, most of us stink at it.

 

The skill I’m talking about:

 

• Opens people up 
• Causes other people to smile at you
• Makes you feel super GOOD when you do it

 

When you learn this skill you may think, “Oh yeah, I know that.”  

 

But do you practice what you know?

 

Today, I’m going to inspire you to put into practice the most powerful and disarming skill there is…

 

Here’s a hint: stop paying “lip service” to this powerful, practical, and rewarding skill and you’ll see your whole life change >>>

You see it at the airport, the school board meeting, and even in your own family.

 

People who want other people to do something but unfortunately present themselves all wrong from the beginning.

 

If you’re struggling to get other people to cooperate with you, learn how to:

 

• Lower another person’s defenses
• Soften an adversarial person’s state of mind
• Give the other person a reputation to live up to

 

The 2 Dale Carnegie principles we discuss in this Jumpstart, when used in tandem, will assure much smoother and more cooperative exchanges with your friends, family, and coworkers >>>

In The Art of War,  Chinese King and battle tactician Sun Tzu wrote, “To win without fighting is the best of skills.” 

 

Dale Carnegie would have agreed with Sun Tzu wholeheartedly.

 

Carnegie taught that once an argument has begun, so many things can go wrong that it's far better to never even allow an argument to take place.

 

In this JumpStart you’ll learn:

 

• Mr. Rogers’ proven technique for never arguing with anyone
• How a master in self-defense trains his students to win every fight
• Why you needn’t participate in every fight you’re invited into

 

Once you’ve lost your temper, you’ve lost!!

 

Learn how to remain calm and not engage in other people’s anger >>>

Several years ago, I realized that often the best thing we can do in some situations is often what we least want to do and that’s very true with it comes to dealing with other people.

 

Today let’s unpack:

 

• How to disarm someone instantly
• How to make someone both like and trust you on the spot
• How to become more trustworthy in the eyes of others

 

The answer is all found in the old quote, “If you can’t beat ‘em....” (agree with ‘em) >>>

 

You need to master this skill!

 

It’s the most valuable skill a human being can possess and yet it’s not taught in any school.

 

It’s the key skill behind all of your successes (and failures).

 

And, over the next 10 days we’re going to unpack how to master this and other important skills as we discuss what I consider to be the most influential self-help book of all time: How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie:

 

Have you ever noticed:

 

• How Dale Carnegie’s first principle is also the core principle of my own best-selling book?
• That some people are just able to make people feel good and agreeable?
• How some people have an innate appeal other people seek out?

 

Let’s crack open this life-changing book and talk about how you can begin to apply the first and most basic principle >>>

Yesterday I concluded my most recent speaking trip by going outside to have breakfast and enjoy yet another gorgeous Phoenix sunrise.

It was early morning and I was primed for a good day when things suddenly took a turn and I was left with making a choice, one that changed the morning and bolstered my whole outlook.

In this JumpStart learn, 

• How to experience irritation and let it pass
• What lies behind new choices
• The universal energy of love that’s waiting for you when you make new choices

Let me share with you the “Oatmeal / Dove” Paradox >>>

We all experience challenging situations.

But when we begin to paint ourselves as a victim in any situation, we lose our ability to improve it.

It’s as if our own thoughts are conspiring to make things worse.

In this JumpStart learn:

• How to mentally prepare yourself for difficult people and situations
• Why the first mental inch is the most important
• How to keep your calm in challenging situations

Remember, once you’ve given an inch the next inch is much easier and before you know what you’ve traveled a long way down the road you never would’ve chosen >>>

Yesterday I sat down to meditate at the big community park here in Key Largo.

Afterward, I took a little walk around the park and discovered an old man on one of the baseball fields tossing up a softball, hitting a home run, and then running the bases.

But there’s more to this story inspiring story:

• Discover how this man (out of shape and well into his sixties) consistently hit home runs over and over
• Decide how to keep score such that you’re always winning
• Learn why it’s never too late to start hitting home runs

This is such a touching and motivating example of “dance like no one is watching” >>>

I once heard someone joke, “my mind is a scary place, I never go there at night and try not to go there alone.”

Everyone has limiting, negative, self-defeating thoughts and for most of us, they run habitually through our minds.

• Why you should “call an audible” on your negative thoughts and then argue them into submission

Don’t let your own mind keep you from enjoying life, learn how to think and live the life you desire starting now >>>
