Key Talking Points: Victim excuse- be self-aware of how you speak to others Key is to listen to yourself before you’re going to say something instead of listening after you’ve said it End of a sentence/statement/question: did it uplift you, give you life and move you forward? Producing results inside before they come out “One man’s confidence is one man’s arrogance.” Ego is fear-based- scarcity mindset, no realization of the real value of who you areWeaknesses are overextension or misuse of a strength  Ego is trying to elevate your virtue and lower another person/place or thing- you think you have to be on top or have no value Women/wives in auto business tend to not have a fear-based ego when they make mistakes, want to simply correct mistakes and move on without having failure ego Letting go of your ego- eating humble pie to move forwardMoment of surrender to the “what ifs/failure/shortcomings” and instead look at “what could be” When you put emotional meaning/self-worth/value on a result you didn’t want you to create a victim story- instead move forward to get the result you want  Emotional intelligence and personal developmentPeople don’t change until they see the prices they’re paying don't outweigh the benefits they’re getting  Until someone sees what it’s costing them, their frustration creates space for the victim and ego stories to exist 60% of your emotional intelligence is already hardwired in the brain by the time you’re 5 years old, 7-8 years old 80%, teenager years 95% Best return on investment is an investment in yourself  Unique AssessmentMeasures in thinking and the ability to produce solutions Behavioral traits that affect results Occupational interest Resources: Thanks to Dave Schedin for his contribution to the aftermarket’s premier podcast.
