Dead beat buyers!  Ugh!

They can be like a vampire sucking the life out of you. So why are you holding on to these people? You know you should let them go but you don’t.

To start, let’s do a little ‘be-honest’. You already know what you need to do. You need to drop them. But you don’t. Why? Maybe you’re addicted to suffering.  Maybe you’re codependent.  Maybe you are starry-eyed and optimistic.  I don’t know.

In 1999 I had a flash of insight!  An awakening of sorts.

“The only difference between the successful prospector and unsuccessful prospector was their mindset.”

Same skills. Same calls. Same scripts. Yet the better mindset wins every time.

At first it didn’t make any sense to me. It took me years to fully understand it. In the end it became so obvious that mindset is the one change that changes everything, that I took my focus off of techniques altogether and started teaching mindset full time.

Is prospecting only for the fearless or can anyone do it?

The answer to that question is both simple and complex. The simple answer is yes, anyone can do it. The complex answer is that you must develop a mindset that is aligned with prospecting.
