Napoleon Hill Skill-"Are Dunce Caps & Whipping Still Legal In School?"

[Glenn]

Thanks Dien.Gordon,

At a Restaurant Today I Over-heard a Teacher at another Table.

So I Waved at the Wife.

Led with a Headline -

"Are Dunce Caps & Whipping Still Legal In School?"

They Laughed and Chatted Away Like Long Lost Friends for 20 minutes.

I Have Been Forced To Wear a Dunce Cap in a Corner.

I Have Been Whipped with a Ruler in Elementary School.

THE POINT?

Is Something I Learned While Reading "The Law of Success" By Napoleon Hill.

In a Chapter about Sales.

Dr Hill Calls The Reader "...Stupid. And "...An Idiot."

And Insults The 100's of Thousands of people he Trained for a Client. On How to Sell "Investment Securities."

ONE YOUNG MAN - Out-Sold Several 100,000 Trainees.

Napoleon Hill BERATES the Reader. AND all other trainees.

Because ONLY He Asked The Kid, "What are You doing?"

#1 Kid Said, "I Research What Each Prospect LIKES and Talk About That.
Listen. And The Prospect Sells Themselves. Insist on Buying "Securites."

I Over-Heard The Two Married Teachers Talking About TEACHING.

And Asked a Question About TEACHING.

From Home - for the last 20 years.

I Find Small Biz Owners with a Problem.

Research Them to Find Out ONE THING they Do to make Money.

Then Email with Ideas Equal to or Similar to Their FAVORITE Way of Making Money.

AND then Phone Them.

Every Time Getting To The Boss - with One Phone Call.

There are HUNDREDS of Books written
about "How to Get to The Boss."

I know this Cuz I have read Bunches of them.

Not one as Useful As The Story in The Back of "The Law of Success."

Thanks,
Glenn

My 8th grade butt was hit by a teacher going for the fences, with his baseball grip paddle with holes in it. Thanks Glenn, now I have to call my therapist.

You bring up an important topic, one which I will address in a separate thread, which is what I believe the future holds for us, via YOUNG minds of today.

For now, let me say, the research is just beginning, but the evidence is there, albeit anecdotal:

The 20 year old mind of today has been altered by SOCIAL MEDIA. In particular the RAS and the amygdala. More on a new post.

What did those teachers have to say about their students? Were they elementary or later? I think the generation entering college poses an existential threat when coupled with coming AI.

And I am serious.

And a Best Selling Line of DOG CLOTHING at Amazon.

CRAZY BUT TRUE.

Robots have Arrived at Maryland Gas Stations.
I
Just
Got
Surprised by My 1st Gas Station with ONE EMPLOYEE.

She had to Teach Me How to Select a Gas Pump, Feed my 20.00 bill into the Computer - Terminal - Machine.

ONE EMPLOYEE instead of 5 or 6.

Now
For
Weirder
WEIRDNESS.

I am Walking around Wearing a Baseball Cap that says

"Tattoo
MatchMaker"

Because ("Money MatchMaker") is making a Client over 100K a Year as a Side Gig.

it creates INSTANT Rapport.

Even with People WITHOUT A Tattoo.

So I have a Teen Waitress in DEEP RAPPORT.

I Point to my Hat.

"You Know one of MY Hobbies. Tell me one of Yours."

Jill said, "Walking and Romance Novels.

When I asked, "What Niche?"

"MAFIA ROMANCE"

"Maddest
Obsessions"

She knew the author, The plot. The names of The Characters.
And Went from BORED to ENTHUSIASTIC while Telling me The Story - Line.

Which
Is
NOT Safe in Real Life.

40,000 Thumbs up. for each of a 3 Book Series!
TOP 50 Most read books at Amazon!

Girl - Mafia Princess - Arranged Marriage - she finds She LIKES being told what to do. Dominated. Treated ROUGH.

Thanks Gordon,

This book, "Hooked" had Me SWEATING In The Library.

The author is an Angel Investor from israel.

Teaches Advanced Business at Stanford.

He Teaches Kids how to BUILD ADDICTION into Their New Apps.

(EDITORS NOTE - Stats Already show the Average Cell Phone user Checks The phone 800 Times a Day. So I Threw my phone Away.)

==========
==========
I Started Testing The (Trillion Dollar Variable Rewards Psychology)
NIR uses and teaches to Create a New Habit - then ADDICTION.

Informed him (At his website)of Waitresses - Bringing FREE Pizza, Extra Desserts, Free Soup and salad while my Guests PAY.

****
And he INVITED Me to Visit Him at Stanford. To show Him What I am Doing.
****

*Nearby Patrons - Chat like Best Friends. Had one woman KNEEL on The Floor at my Table

*Guests - One House Flipper started LICKING The Plates.

*Other Guests INSIST on Paying For My food.

*Follow me in their Car - Buy my gas.

*Enter Grocery Store - Buy my Groceries.

ALL From Watching Me Use The "Variable Reward" Tipping Strategy with Waiters and Waitresses.. WEIRD Behavior.

AND
THIS
IS
What
the Rascal is teaching Stanford Students to ADD to their Apps.

And Made Me SWEAT.

And be Happy I no Longer use a Cell Phone.

Thanks,
Glenn

Thanks Gordon,

It SEEMS to Take a LOT MORE Ooooomp to Create a Best Selling book in The Romance Category today.

Since All Women of all Ages Appear to be Addicted to Their Cell Phones.
Or TicTok or FaceBook.

But this Lady Has Succeeded.

*****************
“Twisted Love” -

“To My Mom, For All Her Support &
Encouragement over the Years.

“Mom, If You’re Reading This, Turn Back Immediately.
There are scenes in here that will Scar You for Life.

*****************

I
Read
The
1st 2 Pages.

And She is Right.

I Am a Bit mentally SCARRED.

THE START -

Ava is in a Rainstorm.

Under a Bus Shelter.

45 Minutes away from Town.

Cab not coming.

Calls her Brother.

Brother Talks to her while having SEX.

I
Stop
Reading.

THINK.

"Where Can This Story go from Here?" ( I Check The Bullets or Ad For The Book)

In My Opinion.

Blatant Sex and Violence is Written By Lazy Writers.

Same Thing with Standup Comics.

If a Comic Works "Blue" he won't be around long.

Jerry Seinfeld
Eddie Murphy
Steve Martin

Long Successful Careers Because They THINK and WORK and Test
Ideas Before They Perform.

Thanks,
Glenn

Hi Glenn,

I'm convinced that if people read what you write... and put it into practice... they'd be cruising into the easy life!

Everyone has "triggers"... and one thing you're sharing with us here is finding other people's "positive triggers" and using them... in a way that both you and the prospect will love!

The risk in doing this... is virtually zero!

Thank you Glenn... for sharing your "brain exploding" insights!

Best wishes!

Dien
