Quick Hits are 10-minute conversations designed to exercise your brain by letting you listen in on an unscripted conversation to hear other people‘s thoughts on a variety of subjects. In February of 2021 I and the members of my mastermind group thought other people might enjoy listening in on some of the lively conversations we were having. But we realized that no one was going spend 90-minutes listening to us going on about anything and sometimes nothing. Instead, we decided to pick one topic and have a short conversation to share. I took the reigns because facilitating those types of conversations sounded like fun. Over the course of a few months it grew from just members of our mastermind group to four (sometimes three if schedules go sideways) people from various parts of the world and from ”short” to exactly 10-minutes. Thus was born ”Quick Hits” hosted by me, Dr Robyn. I hope to get caught up with posting them here on PodBean at some point. As of this writing, I have over 100 ”episodes.” If you‘d like to see the videos of these conversations, they are available on my YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/DrRobynQuickHits If you have a topic you‘d like to hear discussed, I encouraged you to use the contact page of my website: https://drrobynodegaard.com/ to let me know.

Gary Fredericks, Tim Hawkes and Connie Whitman are all major players in the sales game because they own their own businesses. They know that when questions start to feel sleazy and manipulative, that’s when asking has crossed the line into begging.
On this edition of Quick Hits, they share their thoughts on how we can avoid crossing that line.We also discuss specific situations, such as our encounters with homeless people soliciting for money. Why is that begging and not asking?“
There are legitimate questions…and as you get more and more desperate, you start asking the begging questions.” (Gary Fredericks, CEO of On Point Partners)
“It’s not actually about begging or asking. It’s more about how influenceable you are with the whining and the desperation.” (Tim Hawkes, managing director of Unlimited Potential)
“Magic happens when we ask a question that isn’t desperate. Questions are your magic wand. The clearer our questions are, the clearer we understand the other person.” (Connie Whitman, CEO of Changing the Sales Game)
What makes begging different from asking for you?
