care how much they pay.
• Give them what they want and then what they need

will come to you even if they don’t like you.

1. Find out what they want
2. Go and get it!
3. Give it to them

• There is no easy road to this
• But: It can be fun!
• Its never what happens to you but the meaning you give to
it
• ‘Excusitus’ syndrome:
- Am not old enough, young enough, rich enough, educated
enough, the government is bad, my family is not supporting
me, I don’t have the friends, I am covered in debt…
• Change your story and you shall change your life!

easier because you have lived.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
