SELF-IMAGE IN SELLING

Why Your Self-Image is a Key Part of Your PersonalityYour self-image is the way you see yourself and think about yourself. It is often called your "inner mirror." You look into this mirror in every situation to see how you should perform on the outside. You always behave on the outside in a manner consistent with the picture you have of yourself on the inside.How Do You See YourselfFor example, if you see yourself, as calm, confident and competent in any aspect of selling, when you are engaged in that activity, you will feel calm, confident and competent. You will be positive and happy.
You will perform well and get excellent results. If, for any reason, it doesn't go well at that time, you will throw it off and dismiss it as a temporary situation. Your self-image is clear. In your mind's eye you see yourself as good and capable in that area, and nothing can interfere with your mental picture.Change Your Self-ImageThe most rapid improvements in sales results come from changing your self-image. The moment that you see yourself differently, you behave differently as well. And because you are behaving differently, you get different results.

You probably already know that the most successful people have incredible levels of self-confidence. They've accomplished great levels of success and happiness in their lives and seem to be uns toppable in everything that they do. The fact is, that when you develop unshakable self-confidence your whole world will change for the better.You'll have the confidence to take whatever steps necessary to make more money and enjoy a higher standard of living. You'll be more powerful and persuasive with other people. And you'll be more popular and likable.
