Determination Keeps You Moving Til The Victory Comes
by Mike Sigers on October 31, 2007
The next submission in The Simplenomics of Sales People is without a doubt, one of the biggest single most important traits for all successful people, especially those in the sales arena.
Determination
Fight one more round. When your arms are so tired that you can hardly lift your hands to come on guard, fight one more round. When your nose is bleeding and your eyes are black and you are so tired that you wish your opponent would crack you one on the jaw and put you to sleep, fight one more round - remembering that the man who always fights one more round is never whipped. ~ James Corbett
Being an old boxer, like there’s any other kind, I’m always looking for quotes by the old-time boxing champions. They seem to be a lot more intellectual, a lot more balanced and a lot more interesting than today’s versions.
James Corbett summed it up pretty well, in the quote above, but I will add that the resolve to do right supplies the fuel needed for determination to take root and fire up my git-r-done muscles.
I get some sales purely thru the “will to win“. A “do or die” attitude keeps you pointing down the highway towards your next stop, even when you’d rather stop and play golf, stop and look at the sights, stop and shop or just stop.
My company expects me to keep moving and selling, so I do.
My family expects me to keep moving and selling, so I do.
My conscience expects me to keep moving and selling, so I do.
Knowing that the next call might bring a big victory keeps me moving.
Knowing that it’s the right thing to do keeps me calling when the victory doesn’t come.

When things in your lives seem almost too much to handle
A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.
The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.
The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with an unanimous “yes.” The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed.
“Now,” said the professor as the laughter subsided, “I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things–your family, your children, your health, your friends and your favorite passions—and if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.
The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house and your car.
The sand is everything else—the small stuff. “If you put the sand into the jar first,” he continued, “there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls.
The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff you will never have room for the things that are important to you.
“Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take time to get medical checkups. Take your spouse out to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal. Take care of the golf balls first—the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.”
One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented. The professor smiled. “I’m glad you asked.
It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there’s always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend.”

-Charlie Chaplin
Success is never certain, but self-doubt, negativity, and low expectations guarantee failure.
~ John F. Murray
Confidence is not shouting loudly or promtly, but its just the feeling that you dont need to shout.
~ Unknown
A successful person is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks that others throw at him.
