Find Your Performance Blind Spot: Chris Bolger Returns

How to create a steady-state of productivity

Performance Tips you’ll learn today on The Sales Podcast

  • He was hitting the same walls as other therapists/coaches

  • He’d run people through tests to see what’s going on

  • He had varying degrees of success with his clients

  • For 14 years he has searched for how to create 100% success for his clients

  • Shifted from the physical to the mental side of therapy and coaching

  • Took an online business program (with big promises and big price tag)

  • Showed up with a great attitude

  • Did everything they taught

  • “What’s the blind spot here?”

What’s the blind spot here?”

  • He found not one but 40 blindspots!

  • He met with people who failed in various business programs when others succeeded to find their blind spots

  • Created and “If this, then that” flowchart

  • Tried to create a “Perception Process” quiz so people can analyze themselves

  • Willpower vs. Perception vs. Emotional

    • Willpower people need to be challenged to just do it once they accept they are willpower-based

    • Perceptive people need to change what they think about things and they’ll become easy

    • Emotional people need to change how they feel about things and it’ll become easy

  • Found another blind spot

  • Personality tests are skewed because we don’t answer them honestly

Chris Bolger

  • Ask them “What love languages are total bullshit?”

  • Hard to become more proficient based on a personality test

  • We must know how we process things to become effective

  • Your personality changes over time as you grow and age

  • Perception processes never change

  • So he asks people how they struggle

  • When we complain we show Chris a two-part formula for showing how they think

  • Most of us have willpower-based tag lines, i.e., task-oriented

  • Help Perceptives view it so they see it different

  • Do you need time, tools/phone a friend, or just give up?

  • 47 tools he can use

  • Two guys

    • One makes steady, incremental progress

    • One blows it up then coasts then blows it up again

    • Learn how to create a steady state of productivity

  • Three kinds of leads

    • Business owner

    • Coaches that want to help their clients

    • People who just want to be more productive

  • Apply this to performance-based goals

  • Some need to resolve their past but some need to have a better vision of the future

  • When you’re a perfectionist, you must do something outside of your head to get into a flow state

Some need to resolve their past, but some need to have a better vision of the future.”
