2. • A group of children were playing near two railway tracks, one still in
use while the other disused. Only one child played on the disused
track, the rest on the operational track. The train came, and you
were just beside the track interchange. You could make the train
change its course to the disused track and saved most of the kids.
• However, that would also mean the lone child playing by the disused
track would be sacrificed. Or would you rather let the train go its
way?
• Let's take a pause to think what kind of decision we could
make................
3. • Most people might choose to divert the course of the
train, and sacrifice only one child. You might think the same
way, I guess. Exactly, to save most of the children at the expense of
only one child was rational decision most people would make,
morally and emotionally. But, have you ever thought that the child
choosing to play on the disused track had in fact made the right
decision to play at a safe place?
• Nevertheless, he had to be sacrificed because of his ignorant
friends who chose to play where the danger was. This kind of
dilemma happens around us everyday. In the office, community,
Profession Choice
• While we are all aware that life is full of tough
decisions that need to be made, we may not realize
that hasty decisions may not always be the right one.

16. 85% of Salespeople Talk Too Much and Listen Too Little.
Salespeople have been trained to think that two-thirds
of their selling takes place during the presentation,
when they describe their product features and benefits.
This leads to the classic "data dump." Show up and
throw up.
So,
First we focus on Effective listening

Listen do not just wait our turn to speak
Put aside our own views
Become curious about customer’s views
Use the power of encouraging silence

Peoples??????
Listening half …
Understanding Quarter...
Telling double…
19. When customer has first responded to your
question
Pause – Do not talk
Maintain an Encouraging Silence

Customer will use the silence to think
He will then proceed to give a deeper answer to
your question
