Default The Woman Who Swats Bees w/A Tennis Racket

Thanks Gordon/Dien,

An idea from Another book Helps Create INSTANT LIKING with Total
Strangers. Translation - They Go From COLD to WARM and Fuzzy in 10 seconds.

The Book"

"How to Win Friends and Influence People" - Dale Carnegie.

You Will Find A BIG IDEA in the book.

You Can use it everywhere.

The Idea?, "You cannot Change other People. So To Influence (or SELL) to others You Must Change Yourself."

I Use this Idea All the time.

This past weekend I Went out for food on Mothers Day.

Got Behind a brunette lady at the checkout line.

(Instead of BLINDLY trying to Start a Conversation. I Watched what she Bought. What SHE had just put on the conveyor belt.)

Noticed she had bought 2 huge Onions.

I said, "I bought Just Bought some onion seeds. But I bet my onions NEVER get that Big."

She Looked at me for the 1st time. Smiled. And laughed.

I Told her "The Deer And Rabbits Eat my Garden to the roots."

She said, "Mine too."

I said, "But I Found an idea on Youtube. A dozen people Hang IRISH SPRING
soap near their plants. I tried it last year. And it WORKS.

She said, "I discovered that too. It STINKS so bad - nothing comes near my Tomato plants.

I Came Back with, "I wish it Worked on Bumble Bees and Yellow Jackets. They nest in the ground. I Get Stung when I'm Mowing."

SHE ANSWERED, "I got Fed Up with Bees Building all over my house. I SWAT them with a Tennis Racket."

ME - "Really? That Works?"

SHE - "Like a Charm.

ME - "I used to Play Tennis. What do you use to Kill Bees? Your ForeHand or BackHand?"

The Cashier lady Had her head back laughing. She was Convulsed in Laughter.
And I heard some Voices behind me. I Turned to look. Folks in Line Were
Laughing too.

ALL SMILES.

PREVIOUSLY - If Bees Build a Nest next to my Front door. Or over my Garage
door. I'd Get a Pair of Work Gloves. Wait until there are no bees Zooming Past my
head.

And SMASH the NEST against the wall. Between my glove and The Bricks.

But NOW.

Now I don't have to Wait until night time.

I can Get my old Warped Tennis Racket out of the Basement.

And Knock Bees out of the air.

NEVER would have Thunk of that.

Thanks,
Glenn

P.S. - "Forbidden Book List #1" has 17 Books in it.
Books Full of PROVEN IDEAS - You would Have NEVER Discovered Yourself.
