Lesson #2: Be Relentless
“I am a hedonist at heart,” says Cowell. “I love the uncertainty and the challenge. I’m also exceptionally competitive and ambitious. It is relentless, relentless, relentless. I can’t help it. Sometimes I’m glad, sometimes I wish I wasn’t like that all the time. I can never switch off.”

How to Get a Call Back From Your Cold Calls
What’s the most common reason prospects stop communicating with you? They think your going to pressure them. They’re afraid that, even if it’s subtle, we’ll apply pressure to close the sale. So how do we reassure them we aren’t going to pressure them? By staying focused on the truth of the situation rather than on getting the sale. And by using language that clearly reflects this.

Why this Common Sales Mistake is Costing You More Sales than You Realize
The exact language you’re taught to use puts pressure on your prospect. This pressure increases your prospect’s anxiety, and reduces their ability to make a decision.
Sales - A test of character
I can honestly say I did not enjoy the early years of my sales career. I initially found it hard, relentless and sometimes really distressing. I was asked to do things I didn't always understand that significance of. I often felt overly scrutinised by the constant monitoring of activity and performance by my managers. I worked in tough markets in tough times and sometimes wondered if it was worth it. I felt under pressure and sometimes wished I didn't have to sell at all, however I came to realise that this tough introduction to selling was what I really needed to prepare me for the future. In the words of Robert Louis Stevenson "Everyone lives by selling something'.

The Power of Prioritising
As we reflect back on 2009, it was a year of change and uncertainty. Many organisations could be compared to a sporting team under pressure. When the market is going their way then everything is working and confidence is high. However when the pressure is on the weaknesses become very apparent and the cracks starts to appear.

The Dark Side
How well can we manage ourselves, our teams and businesses in a crisis or tough times? Are our actions and behaviours putting us, our people and our businesses at risk? As leaders and managers we are on show and our actions often speak louder than our words. In challenging times this is even more evident. Under pressure cracks may appear and our leadership is put to the test. How do we cope under pressure? What happens to us when we crack? When placed under high levels of pressure, most people will rely on coping mechanisms or their strengths that help them manage in day to day activities, but due to the pressure they can actually become counterproductive tendencies. We refer to these as “risk factors” and they can emerge as our dark side.

Why Developing Mental Toughness Will Bring Great Results
You will achieve great results through developing mental toughness. So what is mental toughness? It is the desire of taking control of your emotions in performance situations.

With added pressure, the chances are high that you will start having negative self-talk, and then lose belief in your ability to complete a task or project.

Effective Time Management Strategies
Effective time management is a skill or maybe an art. And from experience I know that it takes discipline, effort and commitment to make it work for you. It helps to know yourself. Are you a person that thrives under pressure or does a lot of pressure paralyze you?

Growing Under Pressure: Where Leaders Are Born
It's been said that pressure reveals character. You can tell more about someone by the way that they respond to pressure than almost anything else. Some people focus and maintain their integrity while under pressure... others collapse. This is what makes the difference between leaders and followers.
