You Have To Start Somewhere

📅  31st July 2018 | Mindset

So the conversation started like this…

Millenial:  “Can you help me with my sales?”

Me:  “Sure. In what way”

Millenial:  “I want to be the best”

Me:  “Best at what exactly?”

Millenial:  “You know, the best salesman”

Me:  “What makes you think you have the capability”

Millenial:  “Well, I’m driven, enjoy what I do and I like meeting people”

Me:  “So does the receptionist at that posh hotel along the Marylebone Road”

Millenial:  “But she isn’t in sales”

Me:  “Really…..(long pause) look I’m not here to mess with your feelings….I’d love you to succeed in sales. But let me ask you this…are you willing to learn and secondly, what are you going to sacrifice?”
