Your 1000 Day Vision
| |
| This piece is about choosing where you are going to be in 1000 days (i.e., three year’s time). Before you skeptics come up with your “yeah, buts,” let me say that part of me agrees with you! I’m usually wary about the idea of having a grand plan knowing that plans and reality can be very different. Real life can sometimes turn out to be much better than our plans! But the idea behind this piece is to identify key areas in your life and to really visualize what you want in them. After all, this is about looking at who you would like to be 1000 days from now and making your fantasies a reality. |

Consistent Positive Action Creates Huge Momentum
| |
| As I laced up my shoes this morning to head out and tackle my first action focused goal, I spent some time reviewing the past seven days. It's hard to believe it's already been a week since I set and began to achieve these daily action goals.
I can honestly tell you it is 99% easier to tackle these goals today than it was in the first couple of days. If you recall, I was having a bit of a challenge with the "voices" trying to encourage me to make excuses as to why I didn't have to accomplish those goals.
Well, I am happy to report to you that those voices have all but left. The consistency of achieving my daily action goals, has made it much easier, and created momentum that's sending me off on a very positive path. |

| Traditional sales training is a waste of time and money because it does not work! In many organizations, sales training is the flavour of the month, with no consistency. Sales training conducted over one, two or three days, in-house or as a public seminar, is really a waste of time and money.
Sure the motivation and a couple of sales training tips may be good for the next 30 -90 days, but if sales training techniques are not implemented within 24-48 hours of learning them, they are forgotten and the sales training becomes a waste of time and money.
