Psychology

What are the triggers that cause customer to buy?
What can you be the best in the world at?
Read all about the psychological triggers that motivate you and your customers in this section.

This is what I recommend:

  • Have a look at the ‘How-To-Series’ section first. The‘How-To-Series’ covers in detail what you can do for your personal development. You will find detailed series on: goal setting, do-to list, power of external deadlines, etc.
  • Then come back to this page daily. Spend 15 minutes and read a few of the articles. The articles are quite short and easy to implement.
  • I am sure you will have questions once you start reading and making notes. So head to the forum to ask your question.
  • And if you are unsure about anything, email Renuka or me and we will help. Remember there are no silly questions.

Message and request from Renuka
We have just done a major upgrade, and there are thousands of pages on the site. It is very difficult to check every page. When you come across links that are broken, can you do me a small favour? Please send me the webpage where the links are located. I will fix all the broken links.
