And I knew it was possible to get others to do what I wanted if I read their real feelings and responded suitably to their needs. At the age of eleven, I sold rubber door-to-door after school and quickly worked out how to tell if someone was likely to buy from me. When I knocked on a door, if someone told me to go away but their hands were open and they showed their palms (the inside surfaces of their hands, I knew it was safe to continue because they weren't angry although they may have a dismissive(不屑的 attitude. If someone told me to go away in a soft voice but used a pointed finger or closed hand, I knew it was time to leave. As a teenager, I became a salesperson, and my ability to read people earned me enough money to buy my first house. Selling gave me
the chance to meet people and study them close and to know whether they would buy or not. I joined the life insurance(保险business at the age of twenty. And I went on to break several sales records for my company, becoming the youngest person to sell over a million dollars’ worth of business in my first year.
