VIP Power Conversations, Power Questions
Hi, it’s A.J. and welcome VIP member and this is a surprise bonus training just for you,
my VIP member. I’m so excited that you are a VIP member. I’m excited that you are in
the VIP Program because you are special. You know people who join this program are
special because you want more.
You want more than just a few more vocabulary words, for example, or to pass some
test. You know you have a deeper reason, a more powerful purpose or reason to learn
English. You want to speak confidently, not just know some words. You want to speak
confidently, powerfully and you want to use that speaking ability to be successful in your
life, to get a better job maybe or to grow your business.
Or maybe to meet people in other countries, connect with them, have friends in many
countries and see other parts of the world. Or maybe learn things that you find in
English because, of course, English is now the global, the international language of
science and economics and business.
So you realize this. You know this. You know that there are important reasons to speak
English confidently and you want that success in your life. That makes you special. A
lot of people learning English they don’t think about the bigger reason they’re just trying
to pass some test. But they’re not thinking of the bigger goal, the bigger reason for
learning English for their personal success.
And then, because you are a VIP member, you also want something even more than
personal success, you want to be a leader. Maybe you want to be a leader in your
family or for your family. Maybe you want to be a leader at your job, in your business.
Or maybe you have other areas in your life where you want to be a leader. And you can
be a global leader because with English, the international language right now, you can
be a global leader. You can be a leader for people in all different parts of the world.
Of course, again, when I say the word leader, remember, I don’t mean boss. I don’t like
that. That’s the old way. When I say leader I mean you are helping other people be
happier, be more positive, be more successful, and be more confident. You’re sharing
your personal success.
So thank you for being a VIP member. You are special, so I’m going to give you
everything I can and give you some special bonus training, just like today. And this is
318439403.009.png 318439403.010.png
the first one, our first special bonus training for the VIP Program and this one is called
“Power Conversation, Power Questions.”
Today I will teach you how to have powerful English conversations and it’s so easy. You
can speak powerfully and confidently using this really easy method. This is a very easy
conversation technique. You don’t need to speak English perfectly; in fact, using this
technique you don’t need to speak well even, because this is such a simple technique,
yet it’s very powerful. Using this technique you will have very powerful English
conversations, so let’s start.
Okay, the first thing I want to talk about and this is so true -- I learned this from Dale
Carnegie -- the key to great conversation is great listening. And, of course, this is kind
of connected to our idea of how to learn English well, right, is that we use a listening
method, but here’s the great thing. Even when you talk to people, in fact, even in your
native language, the key to great conversation is not great speaking, it’s great listening.
When you are a great listener other people think that you are a great speaker. It’s
amazing! I do this a lot. Just by being a great listener people think oh, wow, I had a
great conversation with A.J. that mostly I just listened. So this is powerful.
So as English learners I know so many of you, you focus all the time on speaking,
speaking, speaking. How can I speak better? How can I speak better? And, yet, just
by being better listeners, more skillful listeners, everybody else will think you’re a better
speaker. Try it. Don’t just believe me. Try everything that I teach you today. I think you
will see that it’s very powerful, so let’s continue.
You don’t need to speak perfectly. So true. You do not need to speak perfectly. Again,
so many English learners think oh my God, I’ve got to speak perfectly. I have to speak
exactly like A.J. That’s not true. You don’t need to do that. You can be a great speaker,
a great leader, a very successful person, without being perfect. Perfection is impossible
anyway, so don’t worry about it.
So what’s the secret then? You don’t need to speak perfectly; in fact, you don’t even
need to speak well, to be totally honest, but this you must do. You must take a genuine
and sincere interest in other people. This is the big, master secret for great
conversation in any language. This is true in your language too, but we’ll just talk about
English today. Be genuinely and sincerely interested in the other person. Man this is
so, so powerful.
When other people feel that you are interested in them, that you care about them, wow,
they care about you so much more. Suddenly you are more interesting to them. So if
there’s one huge secret it’s this, be genuinely interested in other people instead of
focusing on yourself, what can I say, how can I communicate my idea?
318439403.001.png 318439403.002.png
Instead ask yourself, how can I learn more about this person? Be really interested. Be
really curious about the other person you are talking to. Just that attitude is so, so
important and very powerful.
So, you can help them feel more confident, more excited and more positive. This
should be your goal during a conversation. So, instead, again, most people think about
themselves. They think oh, how can I be more confident? How can I sound more
intelligent? How can I communicate my idea better or my feeling better? Instead try
this. Ask yourself, how can I help them feel more confident? How can I help them feel
more excited? How can I help them feel more positive?
Again, this is about attitude. We’re starting just with attitude.
By doing this you can be a leader during all of your conversations. I mean that’s what
leaders do, they help other people feel better, feel stronger, be more successful. In
every conversation you have with your friends, with your family, at work, anywhere, with
a stranger you meet on the bus, you can be a leader in every conversation, just by
helping the other person feel more confident, more excited and more positive. This is
the key to leadership.
Leadership is not only about being some big boss of a big company or a group it’s about
helping other people.
So, you can be a leader in every moment in every conversation. How do you do this,
the technique now? So first I just told you the attitude, next we’re going to be specific
about the technique. How exactly do you be a leader in every conversation? And the
technique, the secret is power questions. Questions are so powerful and when you ask
good questions you become a leader. You’re going to ask power questions during every
conversation with strangers, with friends, with family or at work, everywhere all the time.
So this is the technique. This is how you lead people and, again, lead is not control.
When I say lead I mean help them feel better and be more successful. How do we do
it? We ask power questions. What are power questions? Power questions are an
amazing, an amazing leadership tool. When you use these questions that I will teach
you, man it can change your whole life. So this is powerful. It’s simple, it’s easy to use,
but it’s so, so powerful.
Okay, now here’s why we do it. When you show interest in other people, when you ask
them questions, other people become interested in you. It’s kind of a basic law of
human beings, of humanity. When you show interest, when you care about other
people they care more about you. That’s why we ask questions.
318439403.003.png 318439403.004.png
Here’s another great thing, power questions are easy. These questions I teach you,
anybody can use them. You don’t need advanced English levels. You don’t need
perfect pronunciation. You don’t need perfect grammar. You can use these
conversations any time you have an English conversation and your level is not
important.
Here’s the great thing, even if you have a low level, even if your pronunciation is not
good, you can still have great, I mean fantastic English conversations simply by asking
these easy questions. You don’t have to talk and talk and talk. A lot of learners they
worry about talking and oh my God, my pronunciation is bad and it’s difficult for me to
remember the correct vocabulary. You don’t need to. Just remember these questions
and this attitude and you will have fantastic conversations in English. So let’s do it.
How do we do it? Step by step let me teach you.
Step one: I want you to ask these power questions all the time. Every time you have
an English conversation, ask these questions to the other person. You can do this on
the forums. You can write these questions on the general members’ forums and on the
VIP social site also. All the time, every time you communicate in English ask these
power questions to the other person.
This is the first one and they’re all similar, step one. These are the first set of questions.
Here’s one example. You’re talking to someone. You just meet them. Hi, I’m A.J. How
are you? Then you say, so, what are you doing that’s exciting?
What are you doing that is exciting?
Such a great question- What are you doing? You’re changing their focus, right?
Because in normal conversations, hi, how are you? Oh, I’m fine. Then you start talking,
blah, blah, blah and most people talk about stupid stuff, right? About the weather, about
their job or about negative things. They complain about politics. They complain about
some situation in their life or about their job or about another person and it can quickly
become very boring or very negative or just stupid. I mean talking about TV shows or
something, alright?
So when you ask this question you totally change the focus of the other person and you
become a leader. You change the focus of a conversation, which is something exciting.
What are you doing that’s exciting? Ask this question.
Here’s another question, similar.
What are you doing that’s interesting?
