Your Experience Isn’t Enough
When it comes to negotiating, I often hear people talk about already having experience.
Whenever I do, this story comes to mind of Magnus Carlson, the best chess player in the world.
He’s in his early 20s and he goes down and he plays a couple of those New York chess hustlers, you know the guys who sit there every day and play for a living.
On one side of the table you’ve got tens of thousands more hours, more games, more experience.
However, Magnus just destroys these two. I believe he beats one of them in just ten moves.
What’s going on here is Magnus has purposely trained and he’s also coached.
The same goes for any endeavor. If you think about the best of the best whether it’s in:
Tennis…
Golf…
Football…
Boxing…
they’re all training with a purpose and they all have coaches.
You’re absolutely no different.
If you want to get good at negotiating and communicating with influence, start training today and find yourself a coach.
