    · The Agency Model (Selling With Scot)

    Success in life and in business is actually simpler than it looks.Not easier, always, but simpler.It’s a matter of getting from A to B.A is where you are now, and B is your chosen objective.A leader’s job is to get to B.A leader demonstrates his commitment to get to B by his willingness to be “who he needs to be” and do “whatever it takes in theform of necessary required actions” to get to B.A successful leader accomplishes this feat by mastering his“inner stances” which are presented in detail in the next chapter aswell as throughout this book.What’s the fastest way to get to B? What’s the most effectiveway to get a result? It’s simple geometry.It’s a straight line.It’s a straight line from A to B, as in the shortest distanceINT R ODUCTION4DUSAN DJUKICHbetween two points. From where you are to where you want to be.Straight-line coaching has become the method of choice forleaders, professionals, and executives from all walks of life. As aresult of their experience with this technology, most will tell youthat they have been trained to solve their own problems and are ina position to assist others in solving their problems as well. And thisis one of the major skills of a straight-line leader.A straight-line leader is extremely effective at solving problems in life. They solve their own problems and they assist thosethey lead to become adept at solving their problems as well.My extensive work over the years in the development andrefinement of straight-line coaching methodologies has always beena matter of simplifying the problem. The straight-line coaches I havetrained assist others in their quest for increased personal and business performance. We keep it simple. In simplicity lies fresh strength.We assist our clients by waking them up to the straight line that’salways there. It’s the straight line that they usually don’t see.Why can’t they see it? Again, it’s because of geometry. Theyare traveling in a circle—usually a vicious circle, going around andaround, repeating the same old unworkable behaviors, performing the same actions and hoping for different outcomes in theirpersonal and business lives.This endless circular movement is what the mind does whenit’s stuck in the past, living Groundhog Day over and over, trying to“improve” over past performance.But improvement is not what’s needed.What’s needed is for the circle to be opened up and straightened out... for a new line to be drawn from where you are to whereyou want to be.The Geometry of Success5And we’re going to create this straight line a little differently.We’re going to put your pen on point B first (your future) and thendraw the line back to point A (your present moment) so that now youhave brought the future into your immediate present-time actions.The future is solely created in the present. The future can’tbe created in any other place but the present. What an individualcreates “now” determines what the new “now” or what we call thefuture will look like.Otherwise you are living in a circular world and your future isalways stranded out there as something you want but don’t have.And it’s that demeaning habit of continuous wanting (it’s yourlack) that keeps your confidence and vitality low. Wanting whatyou don’t have robs you of the very energy that would get it foryou. This continuous wishing, hoping, and wanting will replace arelaxed, focused mind with a worried mind... always getting outahead of itself.This book delivers the distinctions that straight-line coachesuse when coaching their clients. These distinctions have been tested repeatedly for their proven reliability in creating breakthroughsin business and other areas of life that require high levels of performance. They open up your whole being and give you the space andstrength for potent, new, decisive action.These distinctions are not theories.
