Mindset Training: 8 Habits of Successful People

Embody these core habits to elevate your performance and achieve lasting success.

1. Have a Great Attitude

99% attitude, 1% ability. Tell yourself your day will go how you think it will. Thoughts are things.

My Reflection:

2. Be On Time Every Time Like It's Your Time and the Last Time

If you are not early, you are late. Present yourself as a reliable and dependable business partner, be a professional.

My Reflection:

3. Be Prepared for the Challenges Ahead Mentally, Physically, Financially, and Emotionally

Be organized: notebook, daily goal, pens, finances stable.

My Reflection:

4. Work Until Job is Done

It takes a half a day's work to be successful, the first half or the 2nd half. You determine your rate of growth.

My Reflection:

5. Work on Yourself More Than You Do Your Job

BE. DO. HAVE. Be the person you want to be, do what that person does, then you have what they have.

My Reflection:

6. Maintain Your Attitude Towards the Opportunities

Clear vision and knowing it will be hard is what will help maintain that attitude. There will be problems. They are opportunities to grow.

My Reflection:

7. Know Why You Are Here, and Where You Are Going

Using the skillset to make money is important, but using the skillset to learn business and the freedom it brings is more important. Your WHY determines your experience and outcome.

My Reflection:

8. Take Control

Every opportunity, situation & your future. Do not be a "yes man!"

The Rhino Attitude: Impact of Attitude on Life

"The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude is more important than facts... It is more important than appearance, giftness or skill... I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to us and 90% how we respond to it. We are in charge of our attitudes."

Job vs. Opportunity: The AK Perspective

**JOB:** Does the least, just to get by. Leaves at 5-6 PM. Does busy work. Doesn't go above and beyond.

**OPPORTUNITY:** Takes all extra time to advance. Puts in the work NOW. Looks at it like how can he get better NOW.

My Commitment:

The Anti-Sales Framework: Your Path to Psychological Sales Mastery

This framework guides you through a deep understanding of your client's needs and how to craft a compelling vision for their success, without "selling."

1. WHY? (Their Core Motivation)

Understand the deep-seated reason driving their desire for change. This is the emotional anchor.

Client's "Why":

2. Current Situation / Problem Wanting Solved

Clearly define their present challenges, pain points, and what they are currently experiencing.

Client's Current Situation/Problem:

3. Dream Situation

Help them articulate their ideal future state – what life or business looks like once the problem is solved.

Client's Dream Situation:

4. Plan of Action They Have to Figure This Solution Out

What have they tried, or what do they *think* they need to do to solve this themselves? This helps you understand their current perspective and perceived alternatives.

Client's Own Plan of Action (Current/Perceived):

5. The Vision You Make for Them

Based on your expertise and understanding, this is the compelling, transformative vision *you* present, bridging their current reality to their dream situation through your unique solution.

Your Transformative Vision for the Client:

Art of Negotiation: Mastering Human Psychology

Negotiation is about understanding human psychology, not just scripts. Connect with System 1 (Emotional) to truly influence.

System 1 (Animal) vs. System 2 (Grandparent)

**System 1 (Animal):** Fast-acting, emotional, instinctive. Highly influential.
**System 2 (Grandparent):** Slow, logical, deliberate.

My Strategy for Engaging System 1:

Framing Effect

People make decisions based on how information is presented (framed). Example: 90% sugar-free vs. 10% sugar.

My Application for Framing:

Prospect Theory (Loss Aversion)

People are more influenced by the possibility of loss than the prospect of equivalent gain. The fear of missing out is powerful.

My Strategy for Leveraging Loss Aversion (Ethically):

7 Steps to Effective Communication: Master the Art

Follow these steps to build rapport, understand needs, and guide conversations to successful outcomes.

1. Intro (Create Rapport)

Read, relate, and recognize. Be sharp, an expert, and enthusiastic.

My Notes/Application:

2. Profile (Set the Tone)

You ask, they answer. Easy questions to gather information.

My Notes/Application:

3. Big Claim (Set a Hook)

Outline the conversation, pre-frame exciting news, make it special/unique, create a story.

My Notes/Application:

4. Discovery (Go Deep)

Find out WHY you're calling, WHO they are, WHAT they want, PAIN POINTS, GOALS. Go deep with intel.

My Notes/Application:

5. Features/Benefits (Relate & Connect)

Give program benefits & features. Relate to their pain, connect to their goals.

My Notes/Application:

6. Close (Figure Out the Money)

If you've done your job right, it's about the payment, not objections.

My Notes/Application:

7. Button Up (Next Steps & Clarity)

Give next steps, clarity, contact info, access to resources, schedule follow-ups. Build trust in the digital world.

My Notes/Application:

Law of Averages: Consistency is King

It's a numbers game: More = More. Give everyone 100%. Believe fully to achieve desired results.

The 3 Musts!

**Great Attitude:** Perspective.
**Great Work Ethic:** Effort.
**Great Conversation:** Genuine care and listening.

My Commitment to the 3 Musts:

3 Types of Days & Your Response

**Fast AM, Slow PM:** Tests work ethic.
**Slow AM, Fast PM:** Tests attitude.
**Consistent Day:** Tests attitude and work ethic.

My Strategy for Consistency:

FUJI Factors: Influence Triggers

Leverage these psychological triggers to ethically guide decisions.

F: Fear of Loss

Greater than the need for gain. Highlight what they stand to lose by not acting.

*(Physical: Show calendar/pipeline demos. Verbal: "We're looking for 3 people today...")*

My Application for Fear of Loss:

U: Sense of Urgency

Motion creates emotion. Create momentum.

*(Physical: Move quickly, tap feet, sway. Verbal: "I have another appointment right after this...")*

My Application for Urgency:

G: Greed Factor

Keeping up with the Jones'. People want what others have, or to avoid missing out on a clear advantage.

*(Physical: Show social proof, case studies, live swipes. Verbal: "What most people are doing...")*

My Application for Greed Factor:

I: Indifference

People don't want to be sold, they want to buy. Be the opposite of a salesman – be unattached to the outcome.

*(Physical: Shrug shoulders. Verbal: "It's up to you," "It's only a good deal if you can use it.")*

My Application for Indifference:
