Sales Tips you'll learn today on The Sales Podcast...

  • You need to gain some perspective to overcome
  • Suffering is included in this process
  • Stop focusing inward. Perspective helps you realize you're not alone and others have overcome the same or worse. 
  • How to handle life ambushes
  • To launch the ambush you're trying to get the enemy to stop fighting back by getting them in the "X"
  • In life when we have bad things happen the mechanics to handle it are the same for us as humans: we hunker down and look back at what we lost vs. forward to where we need to go
  • It's like quicksand. The longer you sit the deeper you are pulled in and the harder it becomes to move on.
  • Don't place unrealistic expectations on yourself like "I'm not worthy of ever being happy again since ABC happened to me."
  • Sometimes we need to move and find cover to relieve the pressure and make a better decision.

    • Most live in the second tier, the Comfort Zone, but it's bad here.

  • Exercising is the easiest thing you can do to get you going
  • People quit because of the pain and discomfort but most quit because we tell ourselves "I can't do it." And it's a lie.
  • It's never too late.
