Mike Ferry on the Importance of Thinking BIG!

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with The Mike Ferry Organization

There are 3 types of people that we deal with every day, whether it be me dealing with you, you dealing with your prospects, or either one of us dealing with life, here are the 3 types ...

People that think big ... they know they can conquer the world ... they work at conquering the world ... and they conquer the world.

Then we have small thinkers ... people that believe getting by is more than enough... people that think that complacency is the name of the game.

Then we have the 3rd group ... PEOPLE THAT DO NOT THINK AT ALL.

Unfortunately, a lot of people fall into category number 3. Our job as great salespeople is to prequalify every prospect quickly, to find out which category they're in. Big thinkers make decisions fast, and make them well. Small thinkers make their decisions very slowly and it takes you forever. Non-thinkers, which constitute a major portion of the world, take forever to make a decision. By prequalifying you can stay away from them.

Mike, really appreciated your putting people into 3 categories and indentifiying that most people fall into category 3.  Guess those people are like sheep, all they want to do is be hearded

Stephen, I sometimes think of sheeple I mean people as being asleep, unaware of opportunities around them.

 

Mike, it's so great to be around people who think big!  Thanks for sharing this!

Mike, that is very true but its our job to educate the small thinkers and wake up the sleeping.  And I feel that I can do that pretty well,  especially since I started listening/reading your materials.

Thank you
