Sales Tweet #340 People lie. Don't take it personally... they're only human.
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
Everyone lies. Some people lie a lot. Some people only lie a bit. Some people tell whopping lies. Some people are pathological liars. Most people tend to judge others harshly when others lie while they tend to forgive themselves when they lie.

Sales Tweet #339 Today. Talk no more than 30% of the time and listen at least 70% of the time.
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
This applies not just to sales but to all conversation. People will tend to like you more if you are skilled at listening. If you struggle with listening the work at self-monitoring. A small percentage of people are born with the character trait known as self-monitoring. If you want to succeed in business and you were not born with this character trait then you have to learn it.
