We are weak Christians simply because we have refused to be bondservants of Christ

Listen to people from your heart, as if your life depended on it, and you will find that in turn people will listen to you with all of theirs.

The choices you make from this day forward will lead you, step by step, to the future you deserve.

Spend your time designing the greatest reputation a man could possess.

What you deserve will be down to you, and you alone.

Destiny and fate are of one’s own making, and riches and happiness are rarely found at the end of an easily-traversed path.

Make sure everyone, who works with you or for you, feels the need to tell others about the incredible experience.

Adopt the positive in everything you do, for there will always be positivity there to find, if that is what you seek.

That which is currently beyond your capabilities now, does not have to be so forever

My intention was, only, ever to help you see the light shining brightly in front, and inside, of you.

Tell your good news as an evangelist would. Do so with a passion driven by a need to help and solve problems that some people didn’t even know they had.

Embrace the fundamentals like the closest of friends, for they will be the foundation of your future success.

Whilst people have answered questions, I have only heard my own voice thinking of the next question.

I was so sure that I knew what they needed and what I wanted to sell them that I never stopped long enough to find out what it was they wanted to buy.

In this world of half-jobs and liars, I will prevail.

I have discovered fallen trees across my path and have possessed neither the strength to move them nor the patience or tenacity to find an alternative way round. I have simply returned to where I came from, and told myself there had been no other choice.

Finding happiness by delivering it.

Everything would have been for nothing just because I simply didn’t listen.

I should become happier at what I do and leave others happier than before they’d met me.

Speaking from the heart is simple. Listening wholeheartedly, however, is much, much more difficult and most rare.

You must have realised by now that when one really cares, really tries to help, the other party recognises the fact and, therefore, easily sees the logic in working together for the greater good, for the mutual benefit of both.

You’ve got to be driven to become successful.

What is the true cost of a purchasing decision that goes wrong?

In the past, I have all too often listened without hearing, asking questions when I had no intention of hearing the answer or understand my customer’s requirements.

Like an ant, I will find my way round any obstacle. Like a child, I will persevere with pinpoint focus.

I will not let those, who cannot recognise how I can be of service, dissuade me from showing them how I can help.

I will look the part. I will act the part. I will deliver that which I have promised to deliver.

Like the evangelist, I will shine with the light I have been shown, recognise that I have the ultimate solution for all my prospects, nurture that feeling deep within, and repeat the words to myself every day, until there is no doubt in my mind that keeping such good news hidden would be the very worst type of sin.

I will design myself a reputation, in which prospects can place their trust, and customers return to and recommend.

I will design my reputation and my resolve shall be absolute. I shall not give in when I know I can help.

It saddens me to note that there will always be con artists and charlatans in the world. Men who aim to fool the public by clothing themselves in the robes of experts.

Listening is a discipline. It’s all about being present at that moment in time.

I want you to start realising how far away you are from being able to listen professionally.

You listen like an amateur and fool yourself into believing it is enough when it is not.

Sceptics are persuaded by a good reputation, for it is an unspoken statement of proof.

Reputation is the panacea for those who lack confidence in their own decisions.

How we feel about those we give our business to is of vital importance.

Who would be willing to put up with less than the desired result, if they could afford to have it done properly?

The confidence felt, when dealing with genuine reputation, often outweighs the simplicity of price.

In the past, I have bargained myself away, believing that price was more important than cost, quality, reliability, or reputation. In the past, I was clearly wrong.

I need a first-class reputation

In this world there are those who enjoy giving people balloons and there are those who take great pleasure in popping them. And I wish to be remembered as being firmly in the first party.

If you woke before dawn one morning with the formula for a vaccine, which would cure the most ghastly disease currently known to man, releasing millions from an agonising death, would you roll over and resume sleeping until daylight?

There can be no success in sales without tenacity.

Seeking those elusive individuals is like mining for rare gems. It will take hard work, patience, and a persistent attitude. To find that rich seam of colourful stones, you will have to chip through dirt and rock. You will have to learn how to hold rubble in your hands and see the fortune inside.

It is your duty to save these prospects from that disappointment. Every potential customer, who misses out on what you have to offer, due to your lack of zeal or passion, every prospect who ends up with an excuse of an alternative from your lacklustre competition, should rest heavy on your conscience.

Sometimes, if you get too close to a subject you can miss what’s most important.

Young man, your problem and the reason so many like you fail, is simply because you allow yourself to give up far too early.

Fascinatingly resilient the tenacity of a child. Not yet conditioned by society to give up when instructed to do so.

If you honestly know how you help people, then you should become passionate about sharing it, spread the good news, give everyone a chance to share in the solutions that you can provide.

From today onward, you will learn how to become evangelical about the many ways you help people.

His belief is so passionate that it fills him with the burning desire to share his fabulous news with anyone who will listen. He is concerned that it is us that might be missing out, not him. His faith in a single road to salvation and paradise is so intense, that it would be ungodly not to share the good news with all those who are not aware.

This is how you must be. You must become as evangelical about your promised outcome as he is about his. You must believe that you, and you alone, have the solution to your prospects problems. Even if they do not recognise those problems themselves.

Think upon the numbers I have been sharing with you. Of your competitors, five out of ten will do little more than take their customer's money immorally. A further three out of ten will leave them dissatisfied.

You should feel so driven to help the world that it would weigh you down if a single person received anything but the best.

And so it must be with the energy you muster for your own work. Get out there and convert the unconverted. Save them all from the charlatans and the nearly-men.

Understand why you are different and how you help, recognise your target market, and give them something they might not even realise they are missing.

If evangelism is really going to be a value that your church embraces, the church will have to embrace the changes that will take place when evangelism is activated in the church.

What price are you willing to pay to see your church actively engaged in evangelism? Price? What do you mean by price? There is a cost for everything. One of the causes for evangelistic entropy is an unwillingness to count the cost of growth. If evangelism is really going to be a value that your church embraces, the church will have to embrace the changes that will take place when evangelism is activated in the church.
