This week's sales newsletter is taken from my running thoughts. People don't sell enough because they don't try hard enough. If you gave 100 percent, you would sell enough. But it's also impossible to give 100 percent, whether it's selling or running. The 100 percent doesn't exist. It's your perception of how close you can get that will help you sell more. I hope this running/sales poem helps you. push that one more percent forward to hit your targets.
100%
Can we ever give our all? I don’t think so. But then again. What do I know? I have never given my all.
100%
Have you?
Ever.
Given 100%
Like all of it.
What is all of it?
When you are tired?
Exhausted. Delirious. Unconscious?
I am fascinated.
Why do people stop?
It is almost always a choice.
A choice too early, in my opinion.
People stop at 80% because it ‘hurts.’
Yes. It is supposed to hurt.
If you want comfort, watch Netflix.
The growth is in the joy of the pain.
The pain is joy.
When people say during, or after, a race;
“I don’t know why I do this.”
I want to rip my hair out!
I scream!
‘The don’t f-cking do it’
Don’t complain.
You have no idea how lucky you are.
This suffering is amazing.
You should be smiling and pushing on.
Not complaining and pulling back.
Finish line. Pah. Pointless.
That is the worst part.
Unless you found 100%
Which you didn’t.
Because you are listening to this.
I have never given 100%.
I have tried.
I will always try.
Take a moment.
Think.
Last time you stopped.
Why? Really? Were you actually done?
Or just told yourself to stop.
But it’s not about your body.
That’s just a meat suit.
It’s about your soul.
Live forever if your soul never dies.
So don’t let it die in front of Netflix, cake, and excuses.
Build it out there.
In nature.
On the run.

LFG.
You know it makes sense.
Don’t be the 60% person.
See you out there.
