The Wisdom of Will Rogers

Sunday, July 1st, 2012

* Don’t squat with your spurs on.

* Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.

* Lettin’ the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier ‘n puttin’ it back in.

* If you’re ridin’ ahead of the herd, take a look back every now and then to make sure it’s still there.

* If you get to thinkin’ you’re a person of some influence, try orderin’ somebody else’s dog around.

* After eating an entire bull, a mountain lion felt so good he started roaring. He kept it up until a hunter came along and shot him. The moral: When you’re full of bull, keep your mouth shut.

* Never kick a cow chip on a hot day.

* There’s two theories to arguin’ with a woman. Neither one works.

* If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop diggin’.

* Never slap a man who’s chewin’ tobacco.

* It don’t take a genius to spot a goat in a flock of sheep.

* Always drink upstream from the herd.

* When you give a lesson in meanness to a critter or a person, don’t be surprised if they learn their lesson.

* When you’re throwin’ your weight around, be ready to have it thrown around by somebody else.

* The quickest way to double your money is to fold it over and put it back in your pocket.

* Never miss a good chance to shut up.

* There are three kinds of men. The one that learns by reading. The few who learn by observation. The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence for themselves.

It is amazing how much of his wisdom continuing even in the up coming election.

Gain REAL Power and Influence By Managing Conversations so they go where YOU want! Part II

Wednesday, June 27th, 2012

Recently, you heard me talk about the challenges many students have had in learning the “Language” of SS. Many guys have had challenges in learning to “talk” in a way that uses all of the skills and tools that have been taught you in these newsletters, and in the products and seminars.

That can be a challenge, and we talked about a solution. But let me ask you this ….

What if the conversation is just BORING? What can you do then?

You know what it’s like to talk to someone for a while, and the conversation just seems to go NO WHERE. What do you do?

Or, worse yet, it goes in the wrong direction and becomes an argument, or somehow the topic shifts to something bad, or negative, or something that is not … at … all … interesting.

What can you do?

You need to learn how to Manage Conversations!

Think about it. Do you know anyone who is always fun to talk to? Someone who always seems to take ANY conversation and make it fun and interesting?

Or maybe you know people that ALWAYS seem to be able to take a conversation and move it EXACTLY WHERE THEY WANT IT TO GO?

Well, these people are naturally able to do what we call “Conversational Management”. This is the ability to move or direct conversations in a way that SERVES their purposes. That’s a great skill to have. Some people have it naturally.

Many people have WISHED they could get such a skill, but there really has been no way for anyone to LEARN how to do this.

Until now.

You have heard Dave Riker mentioned many times. That’s the guy that has a real skill in taking complex processes, and things that many people do naturally, and breaking these down teaching them to students. He has done this in seminars for years.

His earlier product, “Dave Riker’s Speed Seduction Technical Manual”, (which you can read about at http://www.speedseduction.net/products/sf178.asp took many of the concepts of Speed Seduction and organized and taught them in a very structured, well-thought-out manner. It was a BIG hit with students who really wanted that “linear” approach to their teaching and learning.

Well, Dave has done it again by taking this process of Conversational Management, and breaking THAT down into a set of skills that YOU can learn. He REALLY took a lot of time to figure out what process was taking place when people were able to do this naturally. He then organized this into a specific set of steps and skills, and teaches these one by one as part of his latest product. What product?

Dave Riker’s Speed Seduction Language and Conversation Course! http://www.speedseduction.net/products/sf181.asp

In an earlier newsletter from me, you already heard me praise this course. I talked about how it teaches you to learn the “Language” of SS. Well, it DOES do that. AND after you have THOSE skills, it THEN teaches you how to Manage Conversations, so you can be able to take the conversation into the right places to USE that language!

I could go on and on about this course. The feedback from students so far has been AWESOME. The best way to read about it, and HEAR about it, is to go http://www.speedseduction.net/products/sf181.asp
Not only does he describe the course but he has TWO sound links on there where you can hear MANY more details than I can get into in this blog.
