Great training call today Claude, it was a boost of confidence to know that i'm really starting to understand how everything works with GUTS and Transactional Analysis combined. It really makes the calls easier when you know what you are doing and you have a sense of control of the conversation. I understand now when you say its like a chess game. You begin to spot how the prospect is acting and you can adapt to the situation accordingly, or bring them to where you want them. Just move your chess pieces around.

 Dear Claude, 
Some years ago when I was homeless,I came across your Lease Purchase Times© Newsletterfor the very first time. I had less than no money and was being regularly refused employment. So naturally,I signed up to receive your free publication! I know well that you answer your own phone. I called you once and sure enough ,on the first or second ring, you answered in person!I am sure you don't remember me, but we did meet once at an event where you spoke in the Seattle area. Your publication has always been enjoyed by me when it arrived. From it,I gleaned some of the principles of success. Like you, eventually I too realized that my own knowledge, energy and time were my most valuable commodities. I entered the stock market armed with a burning desire to get out of that homeless situation that somehow I found myself in at the time.I put the good life on hold while I worked day labor jobs and read your publication when it came in.  I ate from the food banks, Salvation Army and church"meals for the homeless"while sleeping on park benches, U ofW library and city buses, all the while studying the market. Eventually,I found away that worked for me!Today, I have a home where the"rich people live"here in Seattle.I gave up the city bus for a convertible. If I don't eat at home, I eat in a restaurant of my choice and sleep in my own bed. While some people may call me rich, it is probably more accurate to say that I am comfortably well off. The positive attitude of success that came from your Lease Purchase Times© helped me a great deal. I would like to take this moment to thank you Claude Diamond, in that you helped build in me an attitude of success, you have been and continue to be, a part of my financial success.
Thank you Claude,
I appreciate it more than you know !
Regards,Will S.Seattle, Washington

Claude Response: William, I am sure your letter will touch the heart of many as you have touched mine. There are so many important things to talk about in life but leaving a legacy of helping another is a priority in life. Thank you so much for your wonderful letter. I am sure you will use your skills to help others also.

Be Well My Friend

Hi Claude,

 Almost went off before I thanked you by mail but I wanted to write you a few words about these great gifts you gave me so here it comes: -

The Mentor Teaches The Guts Sales Method:

a very entertaining, funny, catching and full of great untraditional unorthodox knowledge with two more great ingredients: a happy ending and a new path for the reader, a GUTS path. -

How to Sell with G.U.T.S.:

if you have any doubt after reading " The Mentor Teaches The Guts Sales Method" here you will crush all of those doubts having a detailed explanation full of examples and a lot of fun. - GUTS Sales Method RULES: the fact that you laugh while learning them makes you forget some times that is a set of RULES and that is one of the thighs I liked most because, who wants to learn a boring set of rules? Better learn an irreverent set of GUTS RULES while having fun. The one I liked most is the last one: "No One Deserves Success More than You" because when you acknowledge that, all the other rules are easier to follow. -

The Mentor a Story of Success: 

The things that I remember best are the stories, of myself and the entertaining and fun of someone else even better if having a happy ending like this one. This great, funny, and with the perfect size story helps you remember easily and apply these great 10 secrets to achieve success until you make them part of your daily life.

Thanks again and, if you want to practice a little more spanish below is the translation.

Best regards

Francisco

Hey Claude:Casi se fue Mayo antes de poder agradecerte por correo pero quería escribir unas palabras de estos (los que me diste primero y estos) geniales regalos así que aquí va: - The Mentor Teaches The Guts Sales Method: una entretenida, divertida, atrapante y llena de magníficos atípicos (o no tradicionales) heterodoxos (o no convencionales) conocimientos con dos geniales ingredientes más: un final feliz y un nuevo camino para el lector un camino de GUTS (valor, coraje). - How to Sell with G.U.T.S.: si tenés alguna duda después de leer " The Mentor Teaches The Guts Sales Method" acá destrozarás todas esas dudas con una explicación detallada llena de ejemplos y mucha diversión. - GUTS Sales Method RULES: el hecho de reir mientras se las aprende hace que a veces olvides que es un conjunto de REGLAS y esa es una de las cosas que me gustó más porque ¿quién quiere aprender un aburrido conjunto de reglas? Mejor aprender un irreverente conjunto de (GUTS) REGLAS mientras uno se divierte. La que más me gustó es la última: "Nadie Merece Exito Más que Vos" porque cuando uno lo reconoce las otras reglas son más fáciles de seguir - The Mentor a Story of Success: la cosas que recuerdo mejor son las historias, mías y las entretenidas y divertidas de alguien más todavía mejor si tienen un final feliz como esta. Esta historia genial, divertida, del tamaño perfecto te ayuda a recordar fácilmente y aplicar estos 10 magníficos secretos para conseguir éxito hasta que se vuelven parte de tu vida diaria.Un abrazo (I never read "A hug" as closing but is a warm closing in spanish) Francisco
