How the TOP 1% GET WHAT THEY ASK FOR just with EASY CHANGES to their words 🏆🙌
✨#1: Labeling (amazing psychology tip)
Tell someone they are a positive trait - e.g., “you’re very helpful”, “you’re so patient”
→ They’ll want to LIVE UP TO IT
Instead of: “Could you help me fix these errors?”
Try: “Your analysis is always top-tier - could I get your eyes on some errors that are likely easy for you?”
✨#2: Reframing
Making the ask *mutually beneficial* or *more easily manageable*
Instead of: “Could we move the deadline?”
Try (*mutually beneficial*): “To meet the team’s quality standards, we’ll need 3 more days - could that work?”
And instead of: “Will you join this project?”
Try (*easily manageable*): “Will you join just a 1-hour weekly working session for the first phase?”
✨#3: Anchoring
Setting the bar HIGH first, so then YOUR ASK feels reasonable
Steve Jobs back in 1970s asked his firm Atari to PAY for his flight to India as he was QUITTING
Big ask → they said...
