Unless you are able to influence the way others think and act, your chances for success are limited.

The most valuable gift you have to offer is yourself.

Selling - at its core - is not a business transaction. It is first and foremost the forging of a human connection.

Giving is not a strategy. It's a way of life.

What you have to give, you offer least of all through what you say; in greater part through what you do; but in greatest part through who you are.

Edify a person in advance for the positive traits you want him or her to have, and you'll find them making a concerted effort to live up to your praise.

Influence is the ability to move a person to a desired action.
