The Three Destroyers of a Teacher's Sphere of Influence
The Destroyers:
They Don’t Like Me
They Won’t Follow My Directive
They Are Not Convinced
Solution to the Problem of: “They Don’t Like Me”
They regularly need one of these“gifts”: words of affirmation, quality time, acts of service, and tangible gifts
They need to see in you their future goal appearance and goal aspirations
Solution to the Problem of: “They Won’t Follow My Directive”
They need to agree to a “smaller” commitment before agreeing to the “bigger” commitment
They will respond to minimizing pain over gaining pleasure
Solution to the Problem of: “They are Not Convinced”
They need to see evidence (real life example or videos) of others convinced in your directive
They need to see evidence of your authority in the subject area of your expertise
