"Magic words are words that speak right to the subconscious of our brain" If you change 1 or 2 words, it can change everything. You must learn, train, and prepare... Write a script "You still cry at movies... But the actor is reading a script. It's not real. You need to learn to read scripts." Magic Word/Phrase "You wouldn't happen to know..." -- Create a path of least resistance for a referral How has Phil learned what he teaches? "120,000 negotiations. Messing up. Being brave enough to say what works and what doesn't." Magic Word/Phrase "How open minded are you?" -- When you're trying to internally sell a new idea, this works. Everyone wants to see themselves as open minded. This phrase primes the brain to be more open minded to a new idea. It helps people opt in to your idea. How to open a keynote speech?

Must work your way in to build the relationship starting small) Magic Word/Phrase: "Most People..." -- "This helps you tell people what to do without telling them what to do." People love to be led. Example: Yelp reviews When people are stuck being indecisive... "Look, what most people do..." Learning Leader = Leaders are always learning. "You've never arrived. You're always becoming."
