A Positive Alternative to Self-Denial
PRICE ON SUCCESS -- July 12, 1999
In life, as in business, you must continually adapt to change if you expect to improve your position. The problem with many people and companies when things are going well, as they are in our current economy, take on an attitude of "it will never happen to me." This begins to take on a life of its own in self-denial behavior. The best prescription, no matter how well things are in your life and business, is always find ways to make improvements instead of resting on your past successes. With voluntary change today, you will save yourself from forced exercises of mandatory changes later. Habitual success is achieved when we adapt the basis fundamentals of life with that of change. People don't like change, because it generally means uncertainty and disruption in ones life. Procrastination can become a favorite self-denial behavior that may help ease the pain of change for a time. However, change is inevitable. Any behavior can be habit forming such as procrastination which can make or break us. Professional sales people can certainly profit by putting off procrastination for sustained success. Unfortunately, there is a growing complacency in sales forces across America. An example would be the robust building industry, which is at its best in years and in full swing prospering real estate, mortgage, insurance and other related industries. People in those industries are experiencing prosperous times riding the crest of a wave of potential prospects calling them. However, history always repeats itself. There will be a few, the peak performers, who will maintain habitual success. Through out the good times they put off procrastination. They continue practicing the basics of prospecting, obtaining referrals, returning calls and service their client base with reliability and integrity. To enjoy habitual success for a lifetime put off procrastination and
don't fall into the trap of self-denial. Practice sales basics everyday.
