Sales Joke of the Day (August 7) Being Boulder

A young salesman with an inferiority complex insisted he was just a little pebble on a vast beach.

His therapist trying to be creative, told him, "If you wish to save your career and your marriage, you'd better be a little boulder."


Moral of the story.  True sales professionals know that the mediocre amongst us rarely finish in first.  To dominate in your field you have to be ahead of the pack.  You have to abandon all fear and seize opportunities as they arise.  Never doubt your own capabilities.  And always, always be bold!


"All good fortune is a gift of the gods, and you don't win the favor of the ancient gods by being good, but by being bold."
