“Show me that the good life isn't about how long it lasts, but how it's lived, and that it's all too common for someone with many years behind them to have truly lived so little.” - Seneca

In both life and sales, it's easy to fall into the trap of simply putting in the hours.

But a life well-lived, and a successful sales career, aren’t measured by time, but by how intentional and focused your actions are.

Are you busy or productive? Like a worker bee, you might be moving all the time without a clear purpose. Or you could be like a sniper, making every move count, with precision and intention.

Next time you feel overwhelmed, take a moment to step back, reset, and refocus.

A few minutes of movement can clear your mind and boost productivity, helping you approach each task with renewed energy. Make every hour count.

Actionable tips:

• Review your daily tasks and see which ones are driving results. Prioritise activities that directly contribute to your pipeline and closing deals.
• Spend 80% of your time on the 20% of activities that generate the most value. This could mean more time prospecting high-quality leads or preparing personalised pitches.

Remember you will die.
