The Greatest Salesman in the World, OG Mandino著,Bantam USA 1995年出版,195页。
这本书是之前介绍过的同名书籍的前一部,讲了一个很简单的故事,就是在2000多年前,一个看骆驼的少年是如何得到一个羊皮古卷的真传,然后逐渐发迹成世界上最伟大的销售员。当然他经历了耶稣降临的神迹,所以本书有点宗教色彩。全书精华是10个羊皮古卷的内容,总的来说是鼓励人们自我提升,勤奋向上,与人为善,不浪费光阴,充满自信但同时也别把自己看的太重。可以说多看看没什么坏处,究竟要多大价值,还是要靠践行才行。
这十个羊皮古卷上写的成功秘籍是:
1、养成好习惯,改掉坏习惯;把羊皮古卷上的真知背的滚瓜烂熟并学而时习之:
2、每天充满善意地待人,用心感化别人,真诚地爱别人,爱所有人(这个容易做到吗?如何克服自私心,没有任何戒备地去爱人?
3、坚持直到成功,对胜利有坚定的信心,失败只是暂时的,是经验积累;每天结束后再来一单
4、无条件自信:天生我材必有用;我是这个世界上最大的不可替代的奇迹,我有很多别人没有的特点,这些特点我要好好利用;工作的时候我不会想家里事,在家里我也不会想工作(这个很难做到吧?)
5、珍惜每一天,把每天当成一生最后一天来过;昨日不可追,明日不可求,还不如把握好当下;
6、控制自己的情绪,做它们的主人而不是奴隶;笑口常开才有生意来;人的情绪无常,善于识别客户的情绪也很重要
7、笑对世界,也别把自己看得太重;遇到难事多想想所有这些都会过去 (This too shall pass.)只要能笑的出来就不会穷!开心最重要。
8、每天都想着把价值做到百倍,立下清晰的目标,雄心万丈,对成就永不满足
9、现在就付出实际行动,绝不拖延,动起来也就没那么难了,动起来用光照亮别人。只有行动才能创造价值,争分夺秒
10、经常祈祷能得到指引
一些警句摘录:
做销售在路上跑是很孤独的,我深有感受:You are embarking on the loneliest profession in the world. Even the despised tax collectors return to their homes at sundown and the legions of Rome have a barracks to call home. But you will witness many setting suns far from all friends and loved ones. Nothing can bring the hurt of loneliness upon a man so swiftly as to pass a strange house in the dark and witness, in the lamplight from within, a family breaking evening bread together.
Failure will never overtake me if my determination to succeed is strong enough.
When I am tempted to criticize I will bite on my tongue.
Never will I allow my mind to be attracted to evil and despair, rather I will uplift it with the knowledge and wisdom of the ages.
This will be the best day of my life.
I will proclaim it, yea, I will sell it. I will begin now to accent my differences; hide my similarities.
Weak is he who permits his thoughts to control his actions; strong is he who forces his actions to control his thoughts.
Never will I labor to be happy; rather will I remain too busy to be sad.
