I knew that if I didn’t take some kind of action I was going to lose my mind. I confessed all these feelings of inadequacy to a close friend and he suggested I make an inventory of all my assets. (I had no idea what he was talking about.)

He said that I probably had a lot of very valuable assets I was unaware of. So I started making a list (and it was pretty short!)

My friend looked it over and asked, “What about the successful people you know?” I still didn’t get it. (I thought he meant I should ask them for money.)

He explained that my greatest untapped asset was the wealth of experts I knew in show business, people who liked me and would very likely share their expertise with me.

This had NEVER occurred to me.

I worked with some of the biggest stars in entertainment, on television and in motion pictures (often behind the scenes and uncredited,) opening for them in Las Vegas, Reno, Lake Tahoe and Atlantic City.

I made a list of all the Super Stars I had worked with and it was quite impressive. But, so what? How was that supposed to help?

So I started looking at their lives very carefully to see if I could discover what they possessed to achieve their Super Stardom.

And it gradually dawned on me that they had one trait in common– every one was a Master Communicator.

I don’t mean their diction or their vocabulary (although, that certainly comes into play.) I mean the way they communicated with everyone. The closer I looked, the more I saw that they achieved so much– financially, creatively, personally – because of their communication skills. 

My first reaction was disappointment. These people were enormously talented. I couldn’t hope to accomplish what they did. I couldn’t compete at that level. I don’t have that kind of talent. I’m just a regular guy.

But, I was determined to take a leap of faith or die trying. So I started asking these celebrities and stars how they communicated so successfully.

And to my everlasting astonishment, they were cheerfully forthcoming with a treasure trove of information. (Most of them did– some didn’t seem to be consciously aware of what they were doing. More on that later.)

I had access to the World’s Greatest Communicators and they were happily sharing their secrets with me.

But, it gets better! Every single thing they taught me was simple to do, no talent required, things that worked consistently.

Do You See What This Means? This Is Foundational.

It was all technique. READ THAT AGAIN. This may be the best news you read all year. Technique is transferable. Technique is duplicatable.

This blew my mind!

That means ANYONE can employ these techniques, regardless of education, age, sex, or experience. That is HUGE. 

I resolved then and there to learn every single technique from these Masters of Communication every chance I got.

Once I started implementing these “secret techniques” my life started to change in dramatic ways, almost immediately... And the more I practiced the techniques I was learning, the better results I got.
