What are some things that are inspiring you lately?
This week I am going out on a limb and displaying some balancing skills. Happy to report no authors were injured in this video!
And, I wanted to share some more of my favorite things in no specific order.
My balance board. I love this thing. 1, I have actually mastered it. 2, It builds core strength. 3. I can use it while I work! Have you ever used a balance board? Even better if you bought it from a small business! Extra points if you post it in the comments!
Now for some more of my favorite books off my shelf:
Influence, The Power of Persuasion, written by Robert B. Cialdini, Ph.D. delves into the psychology behind the reasons people say yes. But, this isn’t a book about how to sell for the sake of selling, and is a deeper exploration in how to apply methods in your business and personal lives in an ethical, integral manner. “Persons who go through a great deal of trouble or pain to attain something tend to value it more highly than persons who attain the same thing with a minimum of effort.” (TRUE!) – Robert B. Cialdini, Ph.D.
The Alter Ego Effect, by Todd Herman (another mindset geek like me!) is another game changer. In The Alter Ego Effect, Herman shows you how to activate the Heroic Self already nested inside of each of us, through countless stories from salespeople, executives, entertainers, athletes, entrepreneurs, creatives and historical figures. He reveals that you may not be using those traits in the moments when you need them the most. From the creative entrepreneur who resisted their craft, to the accomplished military officer who wanted to be a warmer dad at home, Todd Herman’s clients have discovered there is no end to the parts of their lives they could improve by using Alter-Egos.
““Cary Grant once said, “I pretended to be somebody I wanted to be until finally, I became that person. Or he became me.””. – Todd Herman
