Controlling the Chaos…Good Luck!

Tom Vizzini — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 13:48:05 +0000

Hi Folks,

It has been a week or so since I checked in. I tend not to write anything unless I have something to say

The past 3 weeks have been chaos. So let me catch you up. I decided that it was time to finish a house that I have been working on for 4 years. Yes it was turning into a hobby. My strategy was simple. Rent out my house and move into the new one. Anything that was not done could be done while I was living there. Well, now I am up to my neck in undone stuff and it is chaos.

This morning I went outside to the hose faucet to fill my coffee pot since I have no indoor sinks finished yet. As I looked around my yard I viewed a landscape that looked like a garage exploded and everything was scattered all over the lawn. Under that is a place where grass is supposed to be. Oh yeah,….the grass could use cut as well. I slowly walk back into the house and the half finished kitchen. There was the dishwasher in the middle of the floor. I have no counter tops so my coffee maker is precariously balanced on a cabinet support.

My office is mostly unpacked. My bedroom is almost done. The master bathroom still has no sink. The stairs still have construction boards on them instead of stair treads. Add to that, I have no idea where half of anything is.

Are You Guilty of Information Overload? OR Google Mind Suck

Tom Vizzini — Mon, 19 Jul 2010 17:50:36 +0000

So you think that you need 4 months of research to make the right decision? Do you think that more information makes better decisions? Well…you are wrong. More people try to manage, sell or even buy a TV by getting or delivering MASSIVE amounts of information. All that does is overwhelm the prefrontal cortex of the brain and lead to poor decision making.

Does New Age Thinking Damage Self Help?

My suggestion is that it does.

When I read some of this stuff it makes me wonder what extent someone will go to in order to believe fantasy fairy tales that make themselves feel all warm and fuzzy.

Always wanting to feel good is making you STUPID

Tom Vizzini — Wed, 16 Jun 2010 12:10:14 +0000

Yes, wanting to always feel good can make you stupid.

The reason is simple. Bad feelings that most people avoid actually help you to LEARN FASTER. Wanting to feel good all the time avoids the what the brain needs in order to learn. The most successful people I have ever met are the ones who are comfortable making mistakes and examining where they have not performed well. Eve when they do well they examine how they could have dome better. Here is a 13 minute Gold Member video that you will find FASCINATING

Why to NEVER anchor attraction! or…can I force someone to love me?

Tom Vizzini — Sat, 12 Jun 2010 13:43:30 +0000

Brain asked: Ok, I’m asking honestly as someone who wants to learn : Why is attraction a stupid state to anchor?

The problem with anchoring attraction is that you have no idea what you are anchoring. The second problem is that attraction is not a static thing. It is a description

The World is Falling Apart but I want to Feel Good..Oil Spills and recessions make me miserable

Tom Vizzini — Tue, 08 Jun 2010 19:32:52 +0000

I hear it time and time again. “I want to feel good!”

At this time it seems like the world is falling apart. Oil is leaking into the Gulf of Mexico and there is no end in sight. The economy stinks and it seems no amount of stimulus will bring it back. Terrorist want to kill us. Every day we turn on the news hoping for a reason to feel better.

That is the problem.

I was reading an email from a guy who was complaining about all of the terrible stuff that was going on and how it made him feel bad. he was pulling every self help trick in the book to make himself happy again. That is the biggest self help mistake you can make. The myth is that you can feel wonderful all the time if you can just use enough happy fluffy feelings. It is a tragedy that fuels a lot of the self help industry. Now I am going to tell you the hidden truth that no one wants you to know.

Sometimes life sucks.

Getting treated Special…It is a way of life

Tom Vizzini — Mon, 24 May 2010 14:06:11 +0000

Have you been practicing? I have! OK folks I know lots of you have our DVDs and those of you who don’t must be crazy or lazy We use this stuff all the time. Just yesterday I have the opportunity to do it again in an everyday way.

I was visiting Kim’s parents house up in Knoxville Tennessee. After our LONG trip to Europe we went up to visit and pick up Buddy, Kim’s dog. We were getting ready to leave when we decided to hang around for dinner. After looking around we discovered there was not enough of any one thing to cook for 8 people. I was elected to run to KFC to get some chicken. Not my first choice but it was fast.

I hop in my Jeep and head to KFC. As enter I notice I am the only customer in there. The staff was less than motivated to give me great service. Of the three I saw I picked the guy that seemed most awake. I used the Magical Rapport stuff on him and he lit up. As I walked up he asked if he could help me. I said ” Well I am stuck, I am trying to do math” , as I stared at the menu board with a glazed of confused look. He laughed and I anchored it.

I asked how much extra biscuits would be while firing the anchor. He told me 4 dollars more. I said, ” Damn more math”.

All this time I used positions of power. I switched from equal to subordinate as I talked and let him lead me to the best choice. I finally said that I would take the extra biscuits. He rung it up and it was 43 dollars. My first thought was..DAMN…43 dollars for KFC? I said ”OOOUCH”, as I fired the anchor and moved to equal. Then he started looking at a chart because the register.
