1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,360 Unknown: Influence questions, questions that will enable you 2 00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:07,320 to become far more influential. And as I said, at the beginning 3 00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:11,610 of this training, you've got to do these exercises. Fundamental 4 00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,160 do these exercise, they're really simple, it only take you 5 00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:17,310 a few minutes. But when you do them, you'd be really surprised 6 00:00:17,430 --> 00:00:21,570 how you learn about yourself. And when. And when you learn 7 00:00:21,570 --> 00:00:23,910 certain things about yourself, you can make adjustments and the 8 00:00:23,910 --> 00:00:28,200 adjustments are very simple to make as well.
So number one, 9 00:00:28,650 --> 00:00:32,670 this is, by the way, this all this month's training as every 10 00:00:32,670 --> 00:00:32,970 month 11 00:00:34,110 --> 00:00:37,650 in the members area, the ultimate success club members 12 00:00:37,650 --> 00:00:43,710 area, you can download all the slides from today's session. And 13 00:00:43,740 --> 00:00:46,290 so you can print these questions out. You don't need to write 14 00:00:46,290 --> 00:00:50,670 them down. Okay. So number one, what does influence mean to you? 15 00:00:50,850 --> 00:00:53,730 So you'd write that down.
Number two, describe the most 16 00:00:53,730 --> 00:00:57,180 influential person in your life and why they were so 17 00:00:57,180 --> 00:01:00,000 influential. Number three, when was the 18 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,570 time that you have felt influential in a personal or 19 00:01:03,570 --> 00:01:07,890 professional relationship. Number four, what do you believe 20 00:01:07,890 --> 00:01:11,910 gave you that amount of influence? And what was that 21 00:01:11,910 --> 00:01:12,900 relationship like? 22 00:01:14,639 --> 00:01:19,319 When you ask, and when you ask yourself questions, you come up 23 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:23,429 with incredible answers. High Performance is all about asking 24 00:01:23,429 --> 00:01:27,179 yourself questions that enable you to focus on certain areas of 25 00:01:27,179 --> 00:01:31,709 your life.
And when you get your own answers, the answers come 26 00:01:31,709 --> 00:01:32,339 freely. 27 00:01:33,390 --> 00:01:36,600 Because they're very simple questions. They enable you to 28 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:41,100 focus and change certain things. Very simple, but very powerful. 29 00:01:41,310 --> 00:01:44,880 Everything starts with the right question. Number five, where do 30 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:49,350 you wish you had more influence in your life right now?
I'm sure 31 00:01:49,590 --> 00:01:51,900 there's all sorts of areas of your life that you need to have 32 00:01:51,900 --> 00:01:55,830 more influence. And I give you all the tools to achieve that 33 00:01:55,860 --> 00:01:59,700 earlier. But these questions are fundamental because everything 34 00:01:59,700 --> 00:02:00,000 I've taught 35 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:01,230 You're up until this point 36 00:02:02,730 --> 00:02:07,230 is the theory, the methods, but here you actually put it into 37 00:02:07,230 --> 00:02:10,200 action. You see why it's necessary by answering these 38 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:13,710 questions where in your life that's necessary, and how to 39 00:02:13,710 --> 00:02:17,040 achieve it. Okay, so number six, what do you think you could do 40 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,880 to increase your influence in that area? You've learned a lot 41 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:26,040 of ways.
Okay. So number seven, if you could be an even better 42 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:30,660 role model for someone right now, who would that be? A what 43 00:02:30,690 --> 00:02:35,160 would you do for them? Okay, so that's those are seven high 44 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,550 performance coach, high performance inference questions. 45 00:02:38,700 --> 00:02:43,020 Let's go on to some more. The World's Most Influential People 46 00:02:43,020 --> 00:02:46,200 have three things in common in the way they influence both 47 00:02:46,230 --> 00:02:49,410 individuals and the masses.
They've three things in common 48 00:02:49,590 --> 00:02:54,630 for being being master influencers. Number one, they 49 00:02:54,630 --> 00:02:58,980 teach us how to think. Number two, they challenge us. Number 50 00:02:58,980 --> 00:02:59,970 three, they wrote 51 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:05,280 model the way now, the world's in this is number one. Okay, 52 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,610 we're going to go through each one of these. Number one the 53 00:03:08,610 --> 00:03:11,610 world's most influential people, they teach us how to think what 54 00:03:11,610 --> 00:03:14,340 does that mean?
Well, I don't know if you've ever read 55 00:03:14,370 --> 00:03:17,700 thinking Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. I mentioned it almost 56 00:03:17,700 --> 00:03:20,610 every month because it's not important. But it's one of those 57 00:03:20,640 --> 00:03:25,080 best selling books of all time. And why? Because one reason is 58 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:29,100 that it teaches people how to think it teaches people how to 59 00:03:29,100 --> 00:03:33,630 think you might may believe, oh, I could think just fine. But 60 00:03:33,630 --> 00:03:37,050 look, Napoleon Hill also in that book talks about 61 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:42,600 accurate thinking most people don't think accurately.
Learning 62 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:47,250 how to think about things. makes you a powerful high performer. 63 00:03:48,150 --> 00:03:52,560 And Martin Luther King, Jr. Those like Martin Luther King 64 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:56,460 Jr. told us how to think so did Mother Teresa and Gandhi. So I 65 00:03:56,490 --> 00:03:59,970 saw imagine did your parents great leaders 66 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,450 And influencers are very, very conscious in sharing with 67 00:04:03,450 --> 00:04:07,650 others, how they might think about a given topic. And this 68 00:04:07,650 --> 00:04:12,090 articulation of how to think about problems and opportunities 69 00:04:12,270 --> 00:04:16,590 that make us follow, believe and admire them. Think of every 70 00:04:16,590 --> 00:04:17,550 great influencer.
71 00:04:19,500 --> 00:04:22,620 I can guarantee you, they will be always showing you how to 72 00:04:22,620 --> 00:04:25,950 think and how to approach things. So that's number one, 73 00:04:25,950 --> 00:04:30,540 they teach us how to think. So now, think of a person or group 74 00:04:30,540 --> 00:04:32,100 you are trying to influence. 75 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:37,170 I could influence this person or group, if I could get them to 76 00:04:37,170 --> 00:04:41,100 think in the following way. Fill in the blank, do this. Number 77 00:04:41,100 --> 00:04:46,080 two, the way I could get them to begin thinking this way is to 78 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:50,280 fill in the blank.
To get them to think this way, they'd have 79 00:04:50,280 --> 00:04:54,810 to believe fill in the blank. To get them to stop thinking in 80 00:04:54,810 --> 00:04:58,770 competing ways. They'd have to believe fill in the blank. The 81 00:04:58,770 --> 00:05:00,000 benefits they would get by 82 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:05,160 thinking this way, once again, are fill in the blank. So so do 83 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:09,060 that exercise do that exercise really, really important. So the 84 00:05:09,060 --> 00:05:13,410 second way, the second way, the world's most influential people 85 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:17,370 challenge us.
This is one of the another way that they're 86 00:05:17,370 --> 00:05:22,860 influential has three main ways. They challenge us. So when 87 00:05:22,860 --> 00:05:27,540 someone challenges us, they influence us. Nothing mobilizes 88 00:05:27,540 --> 00:05:30,930 our attention and best energy is better than a challenge that 89 00:05:30,930 --> 00:05:34,860 demands us to stretch our knowledge, skills and abilities 90 00:05:35,070 --> 00:05:38,940 in order to meet those demands. I mentioned this before the 91 00:05:38,940 --> 00:05:41,400 challenge. So some some questions you need to ask 92 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:42,600 yourself or fill in the blanks.
93 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,530 Think of a person or group you're trying to influence 94 00:05:47,730 --> 00:05:51,960 a challenge. I could issue to this person or group to give 95 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:56,580 them an exciting vision of the future would be fill in the 96 00:05:56,580 --> 00:06:00,000 blank. This is a challenge for people to run. 97 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:04,500 He's up, or raise up because it demands that they fill in the 98 00:06:04,500 --> 00:06:08,460 blank. This challenge is good for them and others because 99 00:06:08,460 --> 00:06:13,500 it's, again, going in the blank. The way I'm going to communicate 100 00:06:13,500 --> 00:06:17,460 this challenge to them is to fill in the blank.
So that's 101 00:06:17,460 --> 00:06:21,540 challenge. They, they challenge us, okay. Number three, the 102 00:06:21,540 --> 00:06:25,710 world's most influential people role model the way they role 103 00:06:25,710 --> 00:06:29,190 model the way for us. So we don't believe the message if we 104 00:06:29,190 --> 00:06:32,550 don't believe the messenger, who you are, how you show up in 105 00:06:32,550 --> 00:06:35,880 life, the actions you take, and the values and principles you 106 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:40,500 enact, are closely watched by the world closely watched by 107 00:06:40,500 --> 00:06:46,530 people around you. Okay. So role modeling right now.
Again, this 108 00:06:46,530 --> 00:06:50,640 is the exercise. Think of a person or group you're trying to 109 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:52,020 influence right now. 110 00:06:53,310 --> 00:06:56,880 If I'm going to be more influential with this person or 111 00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:00,000 group, they would need to believe I am a person 112 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:05,220 Who fill in the blank. The best parts of who I am that I will 113 00:07:05,220 --> 00:07:10,710 have to show and demonstrate to them are, fill in the blank. The 114 00:07:10,710 --> 00:07:14,070 reason I'm willing to become a better person in order to serve 115 00:07:14,070 --> 00:07:18,780 this person, or these people are, again, fill in the blank. 116 00:07:19,350 --> 00:07:22,050 So again, even though the questions and fill in the 117 00:07:22,050 --> 00:07:26,490 blanks, these have life changing possibilities for you, these are 118 00:07:26,490 --> 00:07:29,790 the things that enable you to become a high performer.
Do 119 00:07:29,790 --> 00:07:33,360 these exercises, answer the questions, fill in the blanks 120 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,720 and you learn so much about yourself. And you will uncover 121 00:07:36,750 --> 00:07:40,710 so quickly and easily. Ways to become highly influential, 122 00:07:41,010 --> 00:07:44,040 particularly when you use the skills I showed you earlier.
