The 5-P’s of Effectiveness
All Selling Aside with Alex Mandossian | "Seeding Through Storytelling is the 'New' Selling!"
For many people in the world, not just entrepreneurs, but human beings in general, there is a constant need to be more productive… but what does that mean? Better yet, why do we work so hard to be productive, but not necessarily effective?
info_outlineThe rise and fall of nations, racism, and even genocide can be explained by a misdiagnosis of progress. This is also called the progress fallacy and it is one of the riskiest assumptions that you can make in life and business.
Rather than thinking of progress as a noun, think of it as a verb. You are progressing along your path in entrepreneurship which means that for every failure you are doubling your success rate because you now know what NOT to do.
Here is the thing, in almost any given scenario, event A did not necessarily cause event B to happen. Think about it, you download a new software and sometime later your computer crashes. Was event A the root cause of event B? Not necessarily right?
This same concept can be carried throughout all levels of life and business.
Listen in to learn about the root cause and why finding that root is the most important thing you can do. Your three key insights are:
- What the root cause of misdiagnosing your progress really is.
- Why progress misdiagnosis can cause suffering for humanity.
- How to stop progress misdiagnosis so that you can live a happier, healthier, and wealthier life.
Don’t let root cause misdiagnosis stop you from succeeding in sales, business, and life!
