About this listen

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
  1. How counter punching turns boxing (and sales) from force/violence into intelligence and strategy
  2. Why patience under pressure is rare, and how champions use pressure to observe instead of react
  3. How to read patterns:
  4. In boxing: which punch comes first, what happens after a miss, how opponents react under pressure
  5. In sales: repeated objections, hesitation signals, tone shifts around risk, and decision speed
  6. Why resistance and objections are information, not rejection
  7. How to treat objections as engagement and emotional investment, not something to avoid
  8. The sales equivalent of defense first:
  9. Using acknowledgment (e.g., “That’s a fair concern”) without agreeing or conceding
  10. Reducing emotional force so clarity can rise
  11. How to use silence as a weapon:
  12. Letting the other person keep talking
  13. Allowing them to clarify their own concerns and reveal the emotional layer underneath
  14. Why timing beats speed in both boxing and sales:
  15. The power of a 2–3 second pause before responding to objections
  16. How timing controls the exchange and prevents defensive, rushed answers
  17. How to make the counter an insight, not an argument:
  18. Introducing a cost, risk, or consequence they haven’t fully considered
  19. Reframing the situation instead of fighting the objection head‑on
  20. The role of emotion vs. logic:
  21. Most objections are emotionally driven but dressed up as logic
  22. Why you must acknowledge emotion first, then bring in data and clarity
  23. The advanced skill of not countering every punch:
  24. Recognizing “noise,” stalls, and non-real objections
  25. Staying selective so you remain composed and authoritative
  26. How emotional conditioning affects your timing and composure:
  27. Not taking objections personally
  28. Not tying your self‑worth to outcomes
