I was ashamed.
It was shameful trying to talk about security from a job or starting a business with no skills.
I used to own a franchise.
This franchise required me to make calls and do door to door sales when I couldn’t close to save my life.
I was losing money.
My favorite excuse was that it takes you spending money to make money.
BS.
It doesn’t matter how much money you are spending if you aren’t spending it in the right places.
You should spend it on mastering your skills.
I spent money and time this year learning to close, write copy, and public speaking.
This is true security.
True security is knowing that you have skills that are irreplaceable and there will always be in demand for them.
Closing is irreplaceable.
I’m the number one salesman at my job in my district by far and I know that my job won’t fire me because I’m making money.
Copywriting as well.
It is a very difficult skill to write and shift people’s emotions through the written word to get them to take action.
And finally public speaking.
It is irreplaceable to be able to speak to large groups of people and control their emotions as well.
These skills are like riding a bike.
You never quite forget how to do them.
Now I know that I’m secure because if I ever lose money, I can make it back with these skills.
Skills equal security.
Start stacking your skills today and if you don’t have the time, hire someone who does have these skills.
