"You don't get what you deserve - you get what you negotiate."- Chester L. Karass

We negotiate all the time: with business partners, at work, with neighbors, in restaurants, in stores, with family and friends, even with yourself – we negotiate constantly whether we are aware of it, prepared or not.

In this interactive seminar you will learn how to create winning strategies and negotiate successfully.

• Establish instant rapport with anyone anytime anywhere
• How to negotiate with art galleries
• What does it take to get what you want?
• How to prepare for the negotiation
• How to turn negotiation into a winning solution

"Whether you think you can, or you think you can't, you're right." - Henry Ford

Just get into action, right? That’s the way to succeed. Then why does it feel so hard all the time? Dig a little and I bet you’ll discover that you have beliefs that work against you, that slow you down, undermine you, and even stop you dead in your tracks. Those beliefs can be very strong.

I can't say this strongly enough: Your beliefs determine your level of success. Just as strong muscles help you win a ball game, strong positive beliefs boost your energy and confidence, create opportunities, attract powerful partners, clear obstacles from your path, and propel you effortlessly into action and results. So how do you move forward, easily and joyously? Create beliefs that give you buoyancy, that clear the tangle of weeds from your path and that fuel your energy and excitement. And once you’ve created those beliefs, you have to strengthen them, just like you strengthen your muscles when you work out – by using them.

In this Workshop we will cover:

• A better understanding of how your beliefs are working for and against you
  
• 3 Steps to build beliefs that work for you
  
• Actual practice working the 3 steps for yourself
  

You'll learn the tools to create and maintain beliefs that will give you any results you choose to believe in!
