Props to the guy who was on page 16 of a Google search and found a Mayan city. I'm a one, two page Googler tops. And shout out to Bill for 7 Things. 17 Things would make my head explode. 😃
Point one; write down a goal. I want to sell five new cars this month. Point two; learn to say NO. Point one meets point two; who wins? The car seller or the customer wanting to say no?
Consumer confidence numbers or any numbers...yuck. I unequivocally dislike these one-size-fits-all presumptions, assumptions and proclamations. All that matters is your personal take on the situation at hand, not what the silly masses think.
Wow, so much to comment on today. I have 3 (actually 4 but sticking to the rule of 3).
1. I learned long ago that you never start a business correspondence with "I hope", because it's not about you. I have fought with the people responsible for writing the emails we are supposed to use in our prospecting cadences, because almost all of them begin with "I". Finally, finally just stopped discussing it and changed the wording myself.
2. I don't get why Trump has to apologize for a bad joke that a comedian made at his rally. He invited the guy but he didn't write the script. When the sitting President of the United States apologizes for calling more than half the country trash, maybe this demand will hold some water. In the meantime, he is known as a non PC comedian, if you're offended get over it, the country is falling apart, this is not what you should be focused on. And before anyone has a comeback, remember, I've been living in a world of misogyny my whole life. If I got offended by every comment or joke made by men, I'd be sitting in a ball in the corner. I chose instead to step over them.
3. Life without parole for a guy who didn't kill? Mark David Chapman shot and killed John Lennon, he got 20 years to life and, although he has been denied parole twice already, he has eligibility. Susan Smith who committed one of the most heinous crimes by murdering her two young sons, is eligible for parole after 30 years. Talk about the scales of justice needing to be recalibrated.
Re #2: the comedian’s script was pre-approved and added to the teleprompter. Makes me wonder what would prompt someone running for president to have such a comedian represent what he deems is funny? Perhaps that has something to do with why “…the country is falling apart.”
Great.

Loved this edition as it covers the basics with examples for learning 'how to'.
This will be passed along to my employees for their use.
Thanks Bill!
PS - does 3 lines count for anything?
Trump staged a "show" and it did show that he is a performer not a person to be considered for the US President!
Yes 👍🏻
