Walt Disney Resort

The steps that you take mentally before you take the shot in sales or in golf will often play a considerable role in the result of that shot. What are you thinking? Many of you know that I am a bit of a golf nut. In fact, I am in the middle of writing a book on the 18 analogies between the profession of sales and playing golf.
