Build Connections With Desire

Scott Smith - Motivation and Coaching
About this episode

Build Connections With Desire

Not a day passes by without someone asking, "How do I get another person to help me get what I want?"

Persuading others is one of the keys to getting what you want - and here's the big secret; it's NOT about you!

Most folks tell others what to do. That's rarely building a real connection. You'll get what you want faster by focusing on how you can tap into the desire of others and help them get what they want.

A more practical solution is to show them what needs to be done to reach their desire. 

It gets more powerful.

Why not offer to help them reach their goal? Could you do it for them? That's how you genuinely tap into desire.

When you follow this approach, you will make friends prove your value and are much more likely to have your favor returned.

Do good first.
