Harness The Negativity | Free Sales Training Program | Sales School

i'm jordan belfort and this is sales school how do you harness the power of negativity and flip it positive how do you create that boomerang in your life well step number one is drawing that proverbial line in the sand until you get to the point when you say to yourself no more i'm done feeling like i'm done being the victim i'm done pointing the finger of blame and you look within yourself and find you find your best self to really see yourself as you are not worse than you are but to really see yourself and

connect with yourself that's nothing can happen until you address that while you're ready to make the changes or you're ready to move forward are you ready to accept responsibility for your role and whatever went wrong whatever that may be whatever aspect of your life it was in are you ready to expect your partner learn from that and grow from that that's one big part of it the second part is possessing the actual skills for success that are required to leapfrog over everybody else let me just tell you the bottom freaking line here guys all right

most people live average lives you know why because they're average because they deserve to because they chose to not invest enough in themselves and they weren't born with any amazing differentiating skill and they said okay here's i here's who i am i'm not extraordinary see i don't buy into that of every human being is extraordinary i think it's a load of nonsense i think very few human beings are extraordinary what makes human beings so amazing though is you don't have to be born extraordinary you can become extraordinary through sheer hard work through dedication through learning

through absorbing knowledge through practice through repetition through teamwork you can become extraordinary what does that mean well i'm the first that i'm not the average bear when it comes to the my ability to influence and persuade i was born with an extreme gift i just was thank you god or nature whatever you believe right i was born an extreme gift that gift allowed me to effortlessly almost go out into the world and achieve things that other people couldn't achieve lead people spread a message devise a system seriously not being cocky here i'm just being honest

with you most people were not blessed with a gift like that that's so extreme that people say oh my god i'd never say anything like that's rare but guess what do you know how many people i've taught this to the gift i have i've transferred the gift to millions of people many of whom do it just as well as i do it right now or maybe if they don't do it as well indistinguishably as well to the point where that gift i have they possess it at at high enough a level that they can accomplish

whatever they want to it differentiates them they're in that small class of human beings that can out negotiate out influence outpersuade outclose everybody around them and because of that it allows them to achieve more and because our brain is so smart and because our brain future paces everything we do when we become aware we say you know what i might not have been born with an extraordinary gift but through sheer effort i forged myself into a weapon into this apex predator for good but i'm a predator you know i'm in the apex i'm the top

of the heap wow your brain says you know what suddenly anything is possible so my past failures my past tendency not to take action when faced with opportunity that no longer has to equal my future because i possess a skill now that differentiates me that's sales that's ability to close but is that the only skill no sometimes someone is born average above average athlete like very solid athlete but they weren't like michael jordan or even someone like michael jordan what do you think made michael jordan michael jordan or federer federer yeah amazing god-given talent but

they spent extraordinary amounts of time forging themselves into superstars the only reason i like to use a michael jordan is or feathers is so extreme it's so rare but there's people like matt barnes who's on my podcast perfect example he's a perfect example didn't have that level of a gift obviously very talented athlete physical specimen right six foot eight whatever but he had to forge himself through sheer hard work and dedication to find his best self his highest use and became extraordinary successful and wealthy as a result of that [Music] you
