The power of the third influence is a personal success discovery that I made a few years ago. It is profound and impactful. It helps you to understand that you can accelerate changes that you need to make and put yourself onto the right path toward the goals that you want to accomplish. If you remember science classes for a moment, imagine water. There are two hydrogen molecules, and they have potential to become water. You need to add something else to them to make the water. You need to add an oxygen molecule. If you do this you have water, a living force. If you take those same two hydrogen molecules and add the wrong third influence the outcome is different. For example if you add sulfur, this would create a stinky rotten egg gas that is highly poisonous. This shows that if you have the wrong third influence in your life you can be completely off track from what you want to accomplish. There are many examples of where this has happened, such as with Mike Tyson, River Phoenix and Elvis Presley. It is particularly commonly seen with young people, who are easily persuaded to get into drugs, early sex or alcohol. There are third influences in your life that impact your life and decisions you make. Some of these things can be good such as certain movies or music, and others can be bad. The Third Influence Chain Reaction … There is often a chain reaction that takes place with the third influence. It can be seen with the young, in business and with scams. What happens is this: Something takes place to get your attention. In that process you accept that what got the attention may be probable or possible. The third influence is extremely powerful. You have power and ability to control it. However, after this thing gets your attention, you can enter the point of persuasion. You are persuaded by the concept or idea, and move towards the adoption process. You adopt the idea as something you want to accept and have as your own. Then you have an outcome. This can be seen with the young with something like smoking marijuana. Something happens and it gets the kid’s attention. Perhaps the smoking is being done by the cool guys. This associates the cool factor with it. It becomes cool. The young person accepts the act as being cool. At that point they’re being persuaded. They want to be cool so they adopt it as something that is cool and start doing it. Then there is the outcome, they can become hooked on drugs and bad things can start to happen in their lives. Gaining a Better Understanding of the Third Influence … We have to understand the third influence. We can control the things we’re influenced by and we can counteract them. We can’t control what’s being said around us, but we can control what we watch on TV and who we hang around with, what we listen to and what we read. One of the best ways is to find a mentor or someone who you can look up to who has accomplished what you want to. Consider what your goal is, what is your objective? Are you aligned properly and congruently with this, to accomplish these things, are you letting yourself be influenced by the right things? For your mentor make sure that you choose someone with a proven track record of success that you want to achieve as your third influence. Think about who has accomplished what you want to achieve and how you can best be influenced. You may not be able to go to that person’s house necessarily, but perhaps you can buy their books or CDs. Ask yourself how you want to be in X area of your life, e.g. financially. Say you want to make $100,000 per year. Say you’re now making $50,000 per year in sales, and you want to double your income. Look for role models – what are people doing in other areas. How can you look at and modify their ideas, how can you adjust and adapt that to improve your results in your area. Find out who in your organization is already making that. What are they doing? Engage in conversations with them. Get hold of training material about it, get one on one coaching. Align yourself with this. You need a timeframe. Look at how many more prospect you need to call on, how you can refine openings and closings. Model yourself on who knows how to do it best in your industry. This third influence in your life aligns you with what you want to accomplish.
