Why This Blog? Let Me Know What You Think?
One of my favorite quotes is one by Viktor Frankl
" Don't aim at success -- the more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side effect of one's personal dedication to a cause greater than oneself or as the by-product of one's surrender to a person other than oneself"
To embrace the toil of selling with passion; to be engaged and motivated, and to act courageously, we must have the meaning and sense of purpose to will us and inspire us to action. It’s not about success directly, but an authentic commitment to selling well, so that success ensues. This dedication to doing better, is the catalyst to sustainable success, as sales people, and human beings
My intention for this blog is to create a forum to discuss sales in terms of the human experience. I want to focus on things that differentiate great from good. I want to focus on those skills, qualities , beliefs, practices, and values that represents the best of selling and salespeople. I also want to explore how best to implement, change and transform ourselves and our organizations. I want this blog to be an aggregator of our collective knowledge, ideas, wisdom and experiences.
