11 Ways To Be An Addictive Teacher
– You must become addictive if you want to stand out
– Habit performing behaviors – if people have a habit of logging into you, then you will have a habit of going to the bank
- You must sell people why they should care and why they need it
– sell them why they should care and why they need you
– give away value
– you want people addicted to you like they’re addicted to social media
– addictive teachers are bankable; teachers are just employed
- Make it fun. Everything is entertainment. Make it fun. Make it funny.
– tell stories
– never tell a story without making a point, and never make a point without telling a story
- Take what is complex, then make it easy
– while you are teaching, you need to take all the hard stuff and make it easy to understand
- Make it practical and give steps
– don’t leave your audience without the practical steps to move forward
- Have a great tone and be easy to follow
– tone will get you praised or shot
– if you’re not sure about your tone, ask yourself if you’d talk to your mother like that
– make it easy to follow
– just because you have a good tone means you’re easy to follow
– Ex: Joel Osteen makes you feel like someone who has answered all your questions
– when you have a great tone, people receive you; when you’re easy to follow, they’ll buy from you
- Make people believe they can do it, no matter how hard it is
– make it to where people can do it and not have to depend on you
- Teach to all personality types
– “life of the party” type
– “nurturing” type
– “straight to the bottom line” type
– “intellectual” type
- Repeat what you just said. Repeat each main section. Then repeat it all at the end.
– if you’re not repeating, people can’t take notes
– repeat to get people out of that “spare brain space”
- Be patient
– everyone won’t learn the 11 steps at the same time
– you don’t get to plant a seed and determine when that seed grows
– be okay to be available to those who still need to learn
- Be the best student
– addictive teachers are the best students
- Encourage people and praise them publicly
– the most famous teachers give praise only when it’s due
