Many products, services, ideas, beliefs, and views are sold to us everyday … Yes, I believe they are sold! Everything costs something; let it be money, time, or emotion…
As we speak I’m selling you, but as usual, the cost is only your time…
I am sure we all have ended up in situations where we are “stuck” with something we no longer want or believe in… I have found myself more often stuck in what I call the “doubtland”, after being burnt by my gullibility…
But, instead of being feared by my gullibility, I choose to use it…
I choose to check out everything I possibly can… but constantly observe what I need, want, serve me, serves others… In other words, be open minded…
I am somewhat comfortable in purchase decisions I make in “material world”, as in products or services…
But, ideas, beliefs, views, etc is a bit of a mind game for me…
So, I have come up with a little process for myself, that helps me making my purchase decision… which I choose to follow…
Step 1: Have a look / have an interest / be open about it
Step 2: Park it / Sit with it
Step 3: Trial it while fully observing it’s service to you.
Step 4: Buy it (but not subscribe to it if possible)
Step 5: Subscribe to it (if sure)
Step 6. Constantly revisit the current need against what you’ve bought/subscribed
At each step within this process, I have a choice … In fact the final choice is mine… No one can force…
I choose to be aware of my own say or choice in it…
At each step I can take a break, exit, change opinion…
And at each step I choose to know that I have a choice of “selling”/”recommending”, by honestly saying where I am at within the process with information that supports it.
IMHAHO (in my honest and humble opinion), mastering products and services in this process is relatively easy… But, ideas, beliefs, views, etc is rather a challenge…
But,
practice makes perfect
someone said…
So, once again the choice is mine…
I choose to follow it…
Would you choose an Agile Mind too?
