April 3rd - Let your objectives guide your decisions

Actionable tips:

  • Before each quarter or project, outline your main objectives. Use them to guide your decisions so you don’t get lost in conflicting goals.
  • When you feel pulled in different directions, take a moment to reassess if the opportunity aligns with your bigger goals.

“Circumstances mislead us—you have to see through them. We chase what's harmful before we seek what's good. We crave today what we rejected yesterday.” - Seneca

Salespeople face the challenge of closing deals fast vs. building lasting trust.

The key? Stay true to your goals but flexible in your approach.

Our desires often contradict each other. One moment, we chase quick wins; the next, we focus on long-term growth.

Life and sales pull us in different directions, making it easy to lose sight of what truly matters.

If one path isn't working, adjust. Your goal isn’t out of reach, but your method might need a rethink.

Remember you will die.
