Motivational Power Quote

Control Your Emotions When You’re Negotiating

“You cannot always control what goes on outside.

But you can always control what goes on inside.”

Dr. Wayne Dyer, author

As I see it. . . . . . . .

Control your emotions when you’re negotiating

Staying in control of your emotions when you’re negotiating is critical element of successful negotiations.

If you lose control of your emotions you lose control of the negotiating process.

Experienced negotiators will use the tactic of attempting to have you lose control of your emotions when they’re negotiating with you. If they become successful and you lose control of your emotions they take the power position and have a distinct advantage in the negotiating process.  

They will challenge your personally, your ability and your position in the negotiations to disrupt you. Remain focused on the big picture not the opinion of the other person.

Focus on the issues in the negotiation not the people.

The person that can stay in control of their emotions are in the power position in the negotiations. 

Control your emotions when your negotiating and you will increase the potential have having a successful outcome in the negotiations.
