DISCIPLINES To Improve Reliability And Trustworthy In Any Business.

THESE ARE THE FOLLOWING:

DISCIPLINE OF SELF (physical appearance)

You need to check your physical self by going in front of the mirror.

Ask yourself which type of clothing you must use to be trusted and be respected by your prospects.

Shiny shoes, well pressed coat and tie, good hair cut, clean fingernails, close-up teeth and non-odorous breath are some to consider.

Your way of using your body language when you walk in the street.

Do you walk fast?

Do you walk like that of a turtle speed?

While you are meeting your prospect think which type of physical appearance your prospect would expect.

Having a good sleep and healthy life is part of discipline of self as well.

DISCIPLINE OF TIME

You are too late to be on time.

During meetings come at least one hour before it starts.

If you can come two hours in advance, the better.

Use this time to make sure that every single thing you prepare in the program is ok.

When you have more time left before the training starts, go around and get acquainted with the guests who are attending the event.

Use the remaining time to establish rapport and create common grounds with the people around you. This way they are going to trust you the most.

For meet ups, when you are ahead of time, you can use the time left to check your next appointments. Review your goals or to do list for the current day.

You may also review the presentation or project proposal you are going pitch to your prospect.

Oh boy, do not let your prospect wait for you.

First impression lasts.

DISCIPLINE OF THE MOUTH

In uttered words you can create friendship in uttered words you can destroy it in seconds.

You need to think first before you talk most especially if you are in the middle of an argument.

Be willing to listen and shut up your ego centered self, if you

really,

really,

really,

wish to maintain your friendship with your prospect.

You can win trust by not bad mouthing others or the people in front of you as well.

Manage your people with your ears ready to listen not with your mouth.

This is the weakness of most managers?

and leader?

I have plenty of them.

I do avoid talking non-sense and hurting others through bad words by just reading a book.

Sometimes, I sit in one corner writing on my Evernote App while holding my Samsung Note 2 to create a book.

I admit this discipline is my weakness but over a period of time I corrected it by being more conscious of every words I say or made.

To err is human.

Nobody is ever perfect.

So do not expect too much from others to execute right away the three disciplines I wrote in this post.

It takes time for someone to change.

Since you have the power to change for the better, you can start it by yourself.
