Limiting Belief?

Limiting Belief?
I’ve been to a few networking meetings over the last week or so. In the discussions after these meetings a recurring theme has been, it was better in the good old days.
We all might take issue and say was it really better in the good old days, but what concerns me is that is this opinion a limiting belief. A limiting belief is a belief that limits someone’s actions so that they underachieve.
Experience or background lead to beliefs which then become attitudes and feelings which are reinforced by results after the actions which happen after the attitudes. The reinforcement makes the belief more important until it becomes a SFP – a self fulfilling prophecy. Common limiting beliefs are we will never sell to companies in Leeds, we’re not big enough, it will never work and so on. They limit or stop performance. The good news is that these can be overcome and performance maximised.
So is going back to the good old days a limiting belief - yes it can be if it is used as a reason to believe that it will never work. Plus if you can’t change it, why worry move on and work with the hand you’ve got.

Sell Benefits – not features, if you don’t know what the benefits of your products or services are ask your existing customers.

If you are not getting hold of a prospect don’t give it keep trying. Try different times of day.

Keep up an even amount of prospecting, diary in a set amount each week , and do it.

Keep a sense of perspective, not every call works but the next one might.

Be cheerful , lighten your prospects load , be yourself .

Good Luck
