011 | Emerson Brooks says a NO is Just Your Opportunity to Get a YES

Happy Monday! Today’s guest is the talented Emerson Brooks. Emerson is an American film, television and voiceover actor. He has made appearances in major television shows like Lost, Lie to Me, 24, N.C.I.S. and in films including Terminator: Salvation and Super 8, and in this interview he is sharing all of his wisdom all of you, the Royal Fam.

Emerson believes that there is no such thing as a true NO. A NO just means you haven’t figured out exactly how to get that YES. In this episode, Emerson talks about the importance of becoming introspective, when given a NO. This gives yourself the opportunity to review a situation, to ensure that you’ve done all you could to earn the YES you so desperately want. Or, use the information as a lesson learned for future business interactions.

Michelle gets Emerson to open up a little bit about some of the most powerful NO’s he’s experienced in life. Here’s a little tidbit to spark your interest: They’re not the typical NO’s you think of when it comes to business.

If you’ve been dwelling on your NO’s, categorizing them all, and are thinking of quitting, then this episode is a MUST LISTEN NOW!
