Adapt or Die is my PSI Seminars blog topic that will give you something to think about!
Adapt or die … that sounds pretty harsh doesn’t it? While this is not part of the PSI Seminars agenda it nevertheless is a law that governs our world. When was the last time you wrote a letter, addressed the enveloped, put a stamp on it and carried it off and dropped it in a mailbox? I know you don’t remember. However, picking up our email, typing out a brief reply and firing it off into space is commonplace.
My point is obvious, whether you’re going to adapt to the new technology or not isn’t the question. It’s how far you are going and how fast. If you merely peek into history, you will quickly see that every time there was a major paradigm shift, the winners were the people who adapted the fastest, embraced the new way of life and quickly distanced themselves from the masses; for them, there wasn’t even any competition. Those who waited, lost, and then spent the remainder of their days playing catch up.
Study (research), discipline and adaptation are prerequisites to any form of accomplishment. Unfortunately, all three fall into a category similar to paying taxes – we only do it when we have to.
I recently watched a top presenter, who earns well into 7 figures, make a very powerful presentation to a large group of people on a WHITEBOARD. By the time he finished, it looked like chicken scratch in a barnyard. I had the opportunity to visit with him later that same day and I explained the whiteboard was like a projector and the mind of his audience was his screen and although the information was valuable, the picture that was being projected was sheer confusion. I suggested that his information was far too powerful to be dealt with in that manner.
I’m happy to report that he saw the wisdom in my advice. He immediately adapted, invested in a good computer and is presently learning to prepare his own Powerpoint presentations.
Your presentation is part of the basics of your business and should be as near perfection as you can make it. A little of the new technology can go a long way. Opportunity is in the air; it’s everywhere with technology. Tap into it. It’s a known fact that you can find leads, love and luxury with the technology available to us.
Adapt! The alternative is not acceptable and the reward for altering our conditioned behavior is reaching any goal we set. PSI Seminars courses are a main step toward adapting!
