Having the privilege to coach >100 financial advisers, I’ve identified an interesting approach to find success in closing deals - What I call, Jedi Mind Tricks 🧠īefore you react, nope, it’s not some creepy mind manipulation or magic tricks! Managing sales can feel like an uphill battle ⚔️Įspecially when you find yourself struggling with handling pesky client objections and closing deals. P.s., Been a while since I wrote a LinkedIn piece hehe, going to get back to my routine 💪 Take time to pay attention to people next to you. Slow down sometimes to enjoy the things around you. Made me realise mindfulness is so so important 🥹 Was that I see my family getting older and the number of gatherings we could do decreasing as we speak. > More importantly, shared laughters and chatters with my familyĪ lot of happy moments, but what hit me stronger. > Enjoyed the greenery landscape with light breeze > Took time to experience the people and culture It was interesting to see how the buildings change when we crossed the Malaysia borders to Thailand's 🤓 I tried putting myself in the present to observe the surroundings and the people around me. Though it was a slower and longer journey 😮💨, It’s been a while since I stepped foot on a foreign land. Would love to hear your thoughts on this :) There you go, the subtle difference between being humble vs. More importantly, we don’t impose the feel good factor on anyone and expect them to make us feel even bigger of ourselves. Identifying how we could further improve Being self-aware of the things done well Acknowledging that we’ve achieved something To a point we question ourselves often: Am I really good at this?

I think it’s the Asian upbringing that we don’t want to be showy, and explicitly acknowledge that we’re actually good at something. I realise there’s a difference between being humble vs. If you still go “Oh no la, I’m not that good” when complimented,

If you struggle to find a balance in what you do (or generally feeling lost),Īt that point in time, you just need someone out there to let you know. Some cliche advice that I talked myself into 😂 This way I understand myself a little better (how I think + feel).

I take time to figure out my values, strengths, passion, etc. When I feel anxious, I go to the schedule to focus on what’s necessary. I feel things get more predictable when there’s a routine.

I’ve been following through for about 1.5 weeks! You might’ve seen my schedule on LinkedIn 🤣 It’s about piling up small wins > being the best immediately. Every day I incorporate 30mins to write a content. Instead of striving for perfection, I just try to improve. I perform more purposefully and feel more driven to do things. I struggle - I feel bad and demotivated - I slack - I struggle even more I didn’t see myself delivering my best most of the time. I struggled to consistently learn and apply what I’ve known. I couldn’t keep up with the latest industry insights.
