In class, we talked about the three elements of buoyancy: interrogative self-talk, positivity ratios, explanatory styles.<\/p>\n
Interrogative self-talk is all about hyping yourself up before the sales pitch. You want to have the mindset of “fake-it-til-you-make-it”. This very important because it can give you a boost of confidence before the pitch and help you not feel as nervous or stressed. Talking yourself up gives you more of a game plan for how you want the conversation to go. It can also make you feel better about how the conversation will go in real-life with a person. Not only can this be done before a sales pitch, but also before a sports game. You want to hype yourself up to feel more relaxed and have the nerves go away. Talking yourself up gives you confidence to want to do better and it helps you set goals and expectations that you want to accomplish.
\nPositivity ratios is important because you want to keep a positive mindset while in the middle of the sales pitch or in a sports game. If you keep a positive mindset, it will make you more excited to continue to work hard.
\nExplanatory style is about looking at negative experiences in a positive way and finding ways to improve. If you fail, you can either look at it from a negative or positive aspect. From a negative viewpoint, you’re beating yourself up over mistakes that were in the past and take it personal. From a positive viewpoint, you put the mistakes behind you and are learning from those mistakes so they won’t happen again. It’s the same with sports. If you mess up, you cannot keep thinking about the mistake because you’ll be bound to make more mistakes. It’s better to leave the mistakes on the field\/court and have a positive mindset on ways to continue to improve. You should accept the negatives (mistakes) that have happened, put it in the past, and focus on what you can change because that will led to success.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
