Be Prepared/The New Wisdom in Wealth and Health Workshops by Ben & Esther Pinkston (228 hits)
Be prepared. Ensure you know all the facts in advance. Be as knowledgeable as you can about a subject, and be open to learning more. When you know that a situation is going to arise over which you'd like to have some influence, prepare your facts, do your research, do the sums, get the facts and figures, solicit opinion and views, be able to quote sources; then you will be able to make a firm case, and also dramatically improve your reputation for being someone who is organized and firm. Keep your mind alert; think out your business problems. Always try to be a few steps in advance of the other person. (Success Systems For Life)
