The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
Another piece of free up some time advice…
Many people waste a huge amount of time worrying about and even agonizing over problems.
Business life is laced with problems…some small, some not-so-small.
So, it makes sense to have a ready-to-use system for addressing problems.
This provides many benefits…but, here, we will only mention 3:
- It ensures time is not wasted thinking about how to go about addressing the problem
- It forces a solution orientation…i.e., positivity trumps worry
- It builds confidence
That’s why we created P=2S+O©

The Thinking Behind The Tweet
You know you are a leader when you have confidence in situations of conflict.
[Bearing in mind...even the best of leaders have bad days along with their good days. For example, read the biography of Lord Admiral Nelson.]

The Thinking Behind The Tweet
We have been taught and conditioned to think of 'self-conscious' people as timid people, people who cower under negative self-images.
Let's give this another think.
Better still; let's replace that first-thought with a constructive thought.
Self-conscious is a good thing:
- It means the person has given some thought to self...thinking about self is an important thing to do.
- It means the person is aware of self...self-awareness is a valuable commodity.
Self-awareness, like any other skill, takes practice. That practice should be done with an open mind.
Let's stop assuming self-conscious thought and awareness is only directed toward the negatives.
Let's assume that self-conscious thought will result in finding positive things like talent, courage, confidence, conviction, & creativity.
Put another way - "I was thinking and feeling rather self-conscious the other day. Wow, was I ever proud of myself!"
