To you, however, these descriptions could be way off course. For you, happiness could mean taking a long-needed vacation. Being rich could mean not having to struggle to make ends meet. Your perfect mate might be one beside you all along.

The point is, we all need to define our goals, and most important, what they would look like if we saw them. Once we do that, rest becomes easy. Once we know what we’re seeking, it’s simple to devise a plan to make it happen.

By saying, “I want to be happy, and that means taking that trip,” all you now have to do is get out your calendar, circle date you want to go, get some brochures on desired destination, and then plan a course of ACTION to make your dream come true. You might do it by asking your boss to take $50 a week out of your paycheck and save it toward vacation. Or you might want to work an extra job to gain some additional cash.

You see, once you have your vision, you can create ways to make it happen because . . .

The easiest way to hit a goal is to give yourself one to hit.

Keep Smilin' !

Fostering a closer relationship… If things are too difficult to handle in first place, safest bet you can take on is to look for points at outset that might bring you closer to your opponent. For example, try to get to know them well, have a small talk on their thoughts and principles and what are their likes and dislikes. This is something like an information gathering sessions, for what you’ve gathered may actually help you handle issues that are raised subsequently.

But you are advised to be cautious when using this tactic as opponent may actually trying to outsmart you before they become more aggressive in future. With this closer tie, try not to be too encouraged to give away information which you should not.

The final part… Whatever tactics you may use for your opening negotiation, always try to give yourself an added advantage by kicking off negotiation. You may be able to handle proceedings well and to sum up matters which are more favorable to you.
