Do you plan to be lucky?

It’s the “luck of the Irish” and you can’t ignore St Paddy’s day in an office with a Colleen and a Casey!

What does being lucky mean anyway? Do you feel that some people seam more lucky then others? Or maybe more lucky than you? Get over it! It’s not about luck at all. It’s about how well prepared you are, how aware you are, and your attitude. People who appear lucky are really those people who are always on the lookout for great opportunities (show a high level of awareness) they believe that good things come their way (they always have a positive attitude), and they know exactly what to do when something good does come along (they are prepared).

Having good luck is all in your mind. How can you develop this lucky mindset?

(1) Have a very clear picture in your mind about what you want. Before you can attract something into your life, you need to what you want to attract! Write it down, cut out a picture, look at it everyday, and visualize yourself with that goal complete.

(2) Believe that you deserve to achieve your goal, know that you are good enough to achieve your goal, convince yourself that you can achieve your goal. If you truly believe you can accomplish what you want to accomplish, you will succeed. You may not know how you are going to achieve your goal, and that’s OK, just believe you can and open your mind to all possibilities.

(3) Brainstorm situations and responses. Imagine all the situations you could find yourself in that will help you achieve your goal and craft responses to each of those situations. Yes, you are creating a virtual role play. For example, if your goal is to close a $1 million sale, picture yourself closing a $1 million sale and imagine what you would say to the customer as they are signing the contract. Play out the scenario in your head, practice it.

Dedicated to increasing your sales,

Colleen
