Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have a magic phrase – something you could use in your internet home business – to charm even the most cantankerous prospect?
Something you could either say in person or on the phone, or write in an email that was GUARANTEED to stop any argument in its tracks, eliminate ill-feeling and better still, make the other person
HANG ON YOUR EVERY WORD!
Well the good news is that there IS such a magic phrase!! And here it is…..
“I understand where you’re coming from. In your shoes I’d feel exactly the same”.
Of course, you can change the wording to your own style but the message the other person is receiving is still the same…
SOMEONE UNDERSTANDS ME!!
That’s one of the most basic of human needs, for other people to “get us”, to understand our needs and desires, to be on the same wavelength as us.
(How many times have you heard the old chestnut, “my wife doesn’t understand me” as an excuse for an unfaithful husband?)
It doesn’t matter whether you’re involved in web marketing or offline marketing, in any home base business you need the ability to get on with people.
And the best thing about telling someone you’d feel exactly the same way they do if you were in their shoes is that IT’S TRUE!
It’s ALWAYS true, whatever the circumstance. Even when you know the other person is completely wrong.
Because if you were in the other person’s shoes you would BE that person.
Whatever had happened to them to make them the way they are today would have happened to you, too.
Really, if we’re honest, we deserve only minimal credit for being who we are. We’re all shaped by our genes, our environment and our life experiences.
I always think it’s useful to remember that when I encounter someone who is unreasonable and hateful.
“There but for the grace of God, go I”.
So, use that magic phrase in your dealing with prospects, friends and family and you’ll be amazed at its power.
