The other day, while keeping tabs on what was happening on social media, I watched a video of a Young man who was trying to sell bottles of what he referred to as “success water” to his potential customers. According to him, usage of the water would make people rich.
I took a critical look at this young man’s appearance and nothing about him suggested wealth or affluence that he was trying to sell. This brings me to today’s message. Are you a reflection of what you are selling?
One of John C Maxwell’s quotes sheds light on this question, it says “People buy into the leader before they buy into the vision”.
What have you done to capture the hearts of your potential team workers? How do you want to convince people about what you stand for when it doesn’t even reflect on you and your lifestyle? How do you, as a leader intend to make your followers key into your vision when you also seem clueless about it.
Have you worked on yourself?. Are you equipped for the journey ahead? You need to ensure that all of these are in proper perspective before you embark on selling your vision to others. First, make them fall in love with you, the Visioneer, they will naturally buy into your vision.
Congratulations in advance!
