Beschreibung

Suppose for a minute, by some unexplained magic, you could get anything you want--money, a new job, love, more time, a new life ... anything. Don't think. You know what you want. Why don't you have it in your life? Don't you deserve it? Inside this book, you will find the formula for how you can get the life you want with the magic already inside of you. You already have your wants, now all you need is The Ask.

This immediately useful guidebook provides tangible structure to the art and psychology behind asking for what you want and getting it. It sounds simple, it is simple, and the only way it stays simple is by staying organized and focused through flawless execution. The clear, step-by-step guidance in every chapter quickly gives you the thorough knowledge you need to begin practicing The Ask in every aspect of your life. Everyone has the potential to consistently receive what they ask for by mastering a mindset of core beliefs and traits, setting the stage, and delivering a well-practiced ask.

This is the personal development strategy you can easily make a part of your everyday routine to nurture healthier relationships, enhance professional performance, and be a driving force behind your favorite organizations. The reason this singular approach to The Ask is so powerful is because it enables you to shed the fear of rejection and judgement clouding your self-worth. No one can give you that confidence--you need to claim it yourself within the pages of this transformative book.

Laura Fredricks is known as The Billion-Dollar Ask-Maker Powerhouse who trains and coaches nonprofits and businesses across the globe, and this actionable guide enables you to sit down with her and apply her well-proven lifestyle for success to your life. Yes--you live the strategy, and this completely reimagined edition of her popular title brings you up-to-date on the latest examples and insights from real people reaching their goals by asking.

Open up opportunities you never thought were possible by being able to:

  • Turn around a "no" answer by keeping your ask alive
  • Fix a bad ask into a win
  • Remove your money blockers
  • Gain the courage to make your hardest asks--the ones you ask yourself, easy and effortless

Imagine the person you can be with everything you want--now become that person with The Ask.
