Interview Questions

What core philosophy guided your approach to success and sales?

I believe you can have everything in life you want if you will just help enough other people get what they want. Service, integrity, and a positive attitude are the foundation of sustained success.

How do you recommend people set and achieve meaningful goals?

Use my 7-step method: write the goal; set a deadline; list obstacles; identify people to work with; list skills/knowledge needed; develop a plan of action; and list the benefits of achieving it. Review and act daily.

What distinguishes ethical selling from pressure tactics?

Professional selling is helping people make the right decision for their needs. Ask questions, listen carefully, match benefits to problems, and earn the right to close. Pressure is short-term; trust builds long-term relationships.

How did your faith influence your message?

My Christian faith shaped my emphasis on character, hope, and responsibility. I taught that true success balances achievement with integrity, family, and service.

Why was See You at the Top initially rejected, and what did you learn?

It was rejected repeatedly before publication. Persistence and coachability matter. I kept refining the message, and once it reached readers, it took off—proof that timing and perseverance are essential.

What advice do you give to someone discouraged by setbacks?

Failure is an event, not a person. Start with attitude, define one clear goal, take the next small step, and surround yourself with people who believe in growth and accountability.
