I’ve been doing a TON of audio lately.
Mostly for my upcoming Crackerjack Selling CD Club as well as doing interviews and teachings for others.
And recently, something strange occurred to me.
I bet a lot of these people I talk to on the phone would be… disturbed (to say the least)… if they knew exactly what I do while yapping away with them.
Heck, they’d probably find it downright FREAKY.
Would you like to know what this “thing” I do is?
Are you sure?
Positive?
Okay then, you asked for it…
Often (99% of the time) when I’m doing some kind of tele-seminar, podcast or other phone interview, I’m holding one of my firearms. (Don’t worry, I usually remember to take the clip out… )
Question is, why do I do this?
Am I some kind of nut who fantasizes about shooting people on the phone?
No, no… nothing like that.
Believe it or not, there’s a very profitable reason for doing this.
Lemme explain:
A while back, some smart neuroscientists discovered a direct connection between your hands and the creative side of your brain.
I won’t even pretend to understand the specifics.
But maybe you have noticed this yourself while doing something with your hands (chores, writing, playing video games, brushing your teeth, shaving, etc) that ideas or solutions to nagging problems just sorta “pop” into your mind.
Happens to me ALL the time.
And that’s why, when I’m doing a tele-seminar or some kind of teaching on the phone, I keep my hands occupied with my trusty firearm.
Or maybe I’ll grab my 7 iron golf club and practice my swing.
Or putt golf balls into a plastic Coca-Cola cup in my office.
And so on, and so forth.
Does this really work?
You’re darn tootin’ it does.
In fact, my last several audio teachings (including two for a very high priced traffic generation course that have gotten rave reviews so far) were done gun in hand.
Anyway, just something to think about.
Especially if you ever get me on the phone 😉
