On Episode 62 of The Wednesday Call, Andy Albright raps about how you can slow down to speed up with The Alliance. Get ready for this episode because Andy delivered knowledge like he was shot out of a cannon.
When you are recruiting people, are you working fast? Are you working effectively? Are you focused on recruiting and nothing else in that moment?
Are you patient enough to realize when you find a solid person that you need to calm down and slow down? You need to make sure they are on point, so that you don't send them out with the wrong direction.
The first step is making sure you are doing what you should be doing, long before you start expecting the correct behavior from another person. What are you wearing? Is it making a great first impression?
Before you even open your mouth to say hello, people see what you look like. You will attract people who look like you and dress like you. Look the part or you can never attract the kind of recruits that you want on your team. Dress for success and others will take notice.
Be a great example in all that you are doing when you are working with your team. Be aware of what you say in a group setting and be careful about what you say in a direct one-on-one setting to a person. People don’t like to change and they will be sensitive if you point out bad habits. If a person doesn’t want to change then they will not change. You can’t force a person to change their behavior unless they want to change.
When a person decides they want to do something and they show you they have scrap and fight in their DNA, then you have a person that you can help do big things. People that take ownership and don’t see work as a job are the people that want to win big.
People are watching what you do. You can’t coach a person to do something if you aren’t doing it first. Before you can lead, you have to show others through your actions that you are willing to do it first.
Too many people are focused on a destination and not thinking in terms of how far they can go in life. The Alliance wants people to push to see how far they can go and how much they can do with the opportunity we have in America.
People will remember how you made them feel ... always! They don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care. You have to make people feel welcome or they will not come back again. We want people at our weekly meetings, making sure people feel welcomed. Even if you have an opinion, you don’t have to share it with the world. Be nice. Smile. Shake hands.
What you think about the most if what you are going to do. It is a fact.
What you spend your time thinking about and doing is what you will ultimately do. Focus on the right things so that you do what needs to be done. If you are having problems, there’s a good chance that you are thinking about the wrong things in your life. If you are negative, you can bet your worst fears will come to pass. Eliminate negative vibes and work on your words, thoughts and actions.
How you are dressed, how you think and how you act around people is a direct indication of where you are in life.
Focus on what is inside your circle of influence. Anything outside that circle doesn't matter. It is just noise that you can't control or change. Your energy is best spent on things you directly can change.
Stop lobbying for change that isn’t likely to happen and work on what you can make an impact on. When you talk to people make sure you are saying things that are making a positive impact and not negative.
Are you actively helping people that genuinely need direction?
You never know what a person knows so don’t assume that they know what it right and what is wrong. Help people. Don’t be mean.
How big is your vision?
People are focused on what is going on right now and not what tomorrow looks like. People with bigger goals and vision are thinking about the future now. They are still getting things done now, but they have a dream of what the future is going to look like.
Don't fall into the trap of thinking you have huge amounts of time.
The mentality should be now or never, not I can do it later. The more you can do today, the better off you will be. When people see you going all out to be successful, you will attract people that will do the same because you are doing it. If you can do it now, why are you waiting? Move. Take Action. Go get results!
When you have a plan, you can be more successful. When you are striving for a goal, it helps to have a plan. Be intentional about what you do every day and every minute. Actions speak louder than words.
You can have all the information in the world, but it comes down to putting that "know how" in action.
If you haven’t played the game then you can’t talk about the game. You are not credible until you have done it.
You can have the greatest education in the world, but if you don’t take the knowledge and apply it then it is worth nothing. Application trumps knowledge every single time. You have to understand that you can have whatever you want, but you need to have a plan to get there and stay there. It’s part of the formula for success. Remember to operate from a place of humility.
