I Just Called to See How Things are Going
This is a sad story. Sad but true. It was a real conversation, ostensibly a sales conversation. This sales conversation, and many others just like it, are happening all over the world. I recount this sad sales conversation here in hope that we may all learn from it:

“Mary Kay Ash, founder of Mary Kay Cosmetics, once told me something I’ll never forget,” recalled Thomas. “She said the one suggestion she got in life that helped her most was to ‘pretend that every single person you meet has a sign around his or her neck that says, ‘Make me feel important.’”
It Doesn't Matter WHAT They Say!
I went to the chiropractor this week and told him my right arm had gone numb and my neck was tight and hurting. He gave me a great adjustment and then told me that my neck was losing its curve and I have arthritis. I’m thinking to myself, “Thank goodness I know that I can heal anything in my body.
Please Dont Buy Anything From Me
This week I had one customer threaten to "hunt me down and shoot me like a dog." Another said that if she could get her hands around my neck she'd strangle the life out of me.

Stop Tolerating Things that Drain away Your Time and Energy
Tolerations are like a dull headache or stiff neck that never quite goes away. You learn to live with it and each day you climb over the annoyance and get your work done anyway.

The sad thing is that, removing these tolerations is not all that hard or expensive, it just requires awareness and a decision to be done with “it” or “them” and taking action. So TODAY is the day and NOW is the time to uncover your tolerations and start reducing and eventually eliminating them from your life!

Practice, Practice, Practice then Play
In the sporting world it is expected that athletes make the time to practice, practice, practice and then go and compete or play the game. Through regular practice they hone their skills, behaviours and attitudes to ensure they are ‘match fit’ and ready to compete at the highest standards. A sports team needs to make sure that when they are in the thick of the game they can draw upon those skill drills and practice sessions to perform well as a team and perform well under pressure. When an individual athlete is neck and neck with a competitor racing for the finish line they need to know how to dig deep and draw upon their experiences, skills, and mental and physical reserves to cross the finish line first. This cannot happen without lots of conscious, purposeful practice.

Slow Down, You Move Too Fast
He stood, gripping the sides of the counter, his fingers white knuckled from the strain. I'd seen my boss, Mr. Burke, stand there countless times before, studying the inventory, looking for just the right item for the customer, but I'd never seen him like this; his face and neck a livid red, his neck muscles strained, beads of sweat on a brow that only moments before had been dry. I heard Allison, his assistant whisper, "Go get Mrs. Burke." Someone scampered away, relieved to escape the tense scene. I stood there frozen, uncertain what was happening, even more uncertain what to do. After all, I was just part-time help, spending a few summer months between college semesters learning about the real world of business.
