Make A Life

April 13, 2021

Marietta, GA – We Make Our Life

“We make a living by what we get. We make a life by what we give.”

Winston Churchill

Steve Nudelburg reminded me of this classic phrase when he put this Churchill quote in his book, “Confessions Of A Serial Salesman – 27 RULES for INFLUENCERS and LEADERS that will change your life and business”.

During Customer meetings, the best salespeople always seem to know how to put the emphasis of the conversation back onto the Customer instead of products and services.

Customers are very intuitive. They know when they are being “played” and when the sale is more important than the relationship. Give more, get more. Listen more, learn more.

Thanks Steve! For your encouragement!

To your Success!

Optimism

February 18, 2021

Marietta, GA – Optimism

“The pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity.

The optimist see opportunity in every difficulty.”

Winston Churchill

When we look for opportunities, we normally find it.

Isn’t it obvious that many great leaders spend less time whining and more time leading during difficult times?

Winston Churchill quote

December 8, 2020

Key West, FL – Great quote from Winston Churchill 

“I no longer listen to what people say, I just watch what they do. Behavior never lies.” 

Winston Churchill

A great quote from an English gentleman who experienced a lot from his political perch in 20th century Britain during a time of great stress and upheaval. Two world wars within 25 years makes our political environment today seem tame in comparison. 

Continue to do what you must to promote good and not just with words but with ACTION. Oh, and looting buildings and setting someone else’s car on fire isn’t doing good, just so you know. Wink, Nod.

Success is a process

September 29, 2020

Powder Springs, GA – Success is a process

Another great quote from Winston Churchill to reread,

“Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts“

The steps of the process for success is easy to understand. Here they are:

Plan (Prepare the strategy)

Perform (Implement the plan)

Perfect (incremental improvements)

Persist (work hard at achievement)

Begin with small projects and apply these steps. They can scale as the project’s goals and objectives get larger.

Good luck!
