In this episode, Nancy and Umar discuss the following:

• Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) and its role in sales training
• The concept of mindset and its significance in sales success
• The reasons why some salespeople fail to reach their potential
• The importance of discovering one's authentic self in sales
• The role of fear and childhood experiences in shaping behavior
• The use of hypnosis to overcome mental barriers in sales
• Strategies for building a resilient sales mindset
•  

Key Takeaways: 

• What NLP is about and how to use your mindset differently.
• The reason most salespeople don't reach their potential is they don't ascertain or discover their true selves.
• Our conscious mind says: “No, we don't want to do that, that's scary”. And the unconscious mind is like: “I can do anything”!
• Look at people, especially the one that drives you crazy, and learn and utilize that to become better and thank them for it.

" Mindset is very much how we see the world because there is no such thing as reality. So how do we get that perception? It's from our life experiences, and how we see the world. So, let's say, Nancy, for example, you thought that everybody that interacts with you wants to work with you. Let's say that was your belief. Let's say it was a lie, but if you really believed it, you're going to show up in a way that would be expectant of people to want to interact with you. And you know what? People would start doing that because you show up in that way. And if I went into the same meeting and my belief was nobody wants to do business with me, or we're too small a company, then of course, people wouldn't ask and I'd answer questions in a stumbling, bumbling way, not on purpose, but at an unconscious level. So yeah, mindset is how we perceive the world and the meanings we make out of it. And so, the sales mindset is the same, right? It's how we perceive the world. And one of the elements you'll be shocked to hear, Nancy, is our beliefs around money have a huge impact on how well we do in sales." – UMAR

"Number one, you know who you are, and you know what you want so you get clarity on what you want to achieve in your sales career. Number two is you get confidence, like a massive amount of confidence that allows you, because your clients are going to borrow your confidence in your product and in yourself to go, I should make this decision. Then you need grit, so you do not give up. That allows you to keep on going, so when the person says no, three times in a row, you still handle the objection. You're not trying to be pushy and force them, but you also don't want them to miss out. And the last component is passion, which is more contagious than COVID. And if you can know your authentic self, you've got those four elements, clarity, confidence, grit, and passion. That's how you reach your potential. And that's what we teach, how to change your mindset. So, you figure that stuff out and it doubles your sales, not because we teach you any new techniques, is because you use the techniques you already know in a bolder, purposeful way. And I'm going to preach here just for a second, Nancy, that whatever you believe, let's label it God. You will put here on earth to shine. And oftentimes when we're babies, we shine so brightly. And then when life's experiences, we get a sense of I'm not good enough, people don't like me. And then we pull our punches, and we start living a smaller life. And that's not why you were put here. The reason you need to shine, Nancy, is because there are people in your life, your colleagues, your family, your community, that once they see you shine, it permits them to do so as well. So, when we live smaller lives, we're injuring people that we love around us." – UMAR

"Fear is the biological imperative that when we're about to do something new, something scary, fear comes up. And the reason fear comes up is not to stop you. When you're in the mode of fear, your reaction time is the fastest. You are stronger. You don't feel pain when you get injured. It's all the things that you need to be successful. But in our lives, we've been trained when fear comes up, and go in the opposite direction. Don't do that scary thing. Biology is giving us the tools we need to go do it." – UMAR
