The Sales Stoic

April 2nd - Limit the impact of distractions


Listen Later

Actionable tips:

  • Identify common distractions, such as  the people, habits, or situations that tend to drain your focus. Set boundaries to limit their impact.
  • At the start or end of each day, reflect on what’s taking up mental space. Ask yourself, “Is this helping or hurting my goals?”

“Conflict, chaos, fear, detachment, and compliance—these forces undermine your core values every day, whenever you let them take hold of your mind without questioning them.” - Marcus Aurelius

Sales is full of distractions: missed targets, tough clients, office drama. If you’re not careful, these things will drain your energy and derail your focus.

So, what should you do? Block them out. Stay present. Move forward.

Like a Jedi, train your mind to resist the dark side

Negativity, fear, drama, passivity, can creep in and cloud your judgment if you're not careful.

But remember, these forces only take hold if we let them.

Guard your focus, and you'll perform at your best, even when the going gets tough.

Remember you will die.
