Getting Your Personal Agenda Straight

What a great start to the week. Two great posts by Dan Tudor at Landingthedeal.com, referencing an article by Robert Cox on how billionaire’s think.

A quote pulled from Dan’s quote pulled from Robert Cox:

When a billionaire enters a meeting, it is all about “We are here to make money.” It’s not about the weather. It’s not about what so-and-so is doing this weekend. It is not about who has the best record in the NBA and who will win the playoffs. (Unless, of course, that billionaire is Mark Cuban.) No. The billionaire is ALWAYS READY to make money.

Here’s what I love about these posts. It all starts with what’s in your head. What mindset do you go into meetings, appointments, phone blocks–what mindset do you carry with you? Do you carry one with you?

Do you have a personal agenda, that, no matter how open and flexible you may need to be to establish rapport with others and to build relationships, is your guiding light? It’s a combination of your goals, your short-term objectives, your attitude, your drive, and your grit.

It’s your fuel to get things done.

What a great start to the week. Thanks, Dan.
