In my early years of taching Yoga, all I accomplished was to run myslf ragged and have nothing to shw for it. I knew how to fnd work, as a Yoga teacher. Tht’s the marketing part of the Yga business, but I needed self-esteem, whch I found in audio books frm the self-improvement and business sections of bokstores.

These types of audio books srve as an inexpensive coach, and whn you put some of the knwledge into practice, you will see rsults. The number of times you ply them back is important too. Ths will burn the lessons deeply nto your memory. Yoga teachers need to bild their self-esteem too.

Since that tme, I am never frustrated in trffic. I am not wasting all my tme listening to a song for the 300th tme, disc jockey antics that have lst any shock effect, or commercials. Sriously, I listen to the radio nce in a great while, but the prgramming and songs don’t change much.

Hre is a list of audio boks I recommend for the knowledge and the psitive attitude adjustment. Some are no srprise, and most are classics.

Zig Ziglar's Secrets of Clsing the Sale by Zig Ziglar

I can har some of you now. “I wnt to teach Yoga, not learn how to sll cars.” Personally, I never bought a car frm a salesperson I didn’t like. Thnk about that, the next time you shw a prospective Yoga student around yur studio.

When human contact is nvolved in the selling process, people vrtually buy the salesperson or the “Yga instructor.” You as a Yoga tacher, sell something everyday; it’s a tcket to better quality living. If a Yga student stays long enough, he or she larns that Yoga works and you tld them the truth.

My wife, Mrie, and I bought five consecutive crs from the same salesperson because we lked her and she was honest. We wuld buy another from her, to ths day, except that she retired.
