1 . Years ago, I had the opportunity to conduct a seminar. This was a motivational one basically designed to
____ people in changing their lives,
____ their personal barriers in life.
It was always
____ to meet the seminar attendees. Some of them couldn’t wait to get started, others were
____ about what they would get for their money, and others attended
____ often being forced by pressure.
This last group was always the most
____ to work with. They sit there with
____ crossed, rarely participating in any of the specific exercises meant to help them build positive behaviors to
____ old habits and thoughts.
In the end, I started to look through the evaluations paying particular attention to find the form submitted by one of the attendees who had seemingly
____ less attentiveness. To my disappointment, in this
____, there was no form. I left that day thinking that I had
____ this person.
As I
____ my preparation for the next seminar afterwards, one day I received a phone call —it was the
____ attendee who had not submitted the evaluation form! My immediate
____ was to prepare for a request for a total refund(退款).
It was not the case,
____ He took his time to tell me how much the seminar had already helped him change his ways, and how much more comfortable he was with himself now that he knew how to overcome his own personal barriers
____ success both personally and professionally. I was surprised and glad to be
____ to him.
Actually we all have power to affect the
____ of others, but this power can also be negative if you use it wrongly or improperly. Power — you all have it — use it
____ because you never know what impact you have on other people even when you think
