subject: How To Survive Outside Your Comfort Zone When Making Sales by:Rob Lawrence [print this page] Being a salesperson is never easyBeing a salesperson is never easy. To sell effectively, you must to be willing to do things that challenge you. No top producer has ever reached the upper ranks without first moving outside their comfort zone.
Someone recently sent me this poem and I wanted to share it with you. I hope it inspires you to keep challenging yourself and be willing to do whatever it takes to succeed.
No one ever said that sales was easy, but a little bit of inspiration never hurt either!
From one friend to another, here is the poem
Comfort Zone
(Author Unknown)
I use to have a Comfort Zone
Where I knew I couldn't fail
The same four walls of busy work
Were really more like jail.
I longed so much to do the things
I'd never done before,
But I stayed inside my Comfort Zone
And paced the same old floor
I said it didn't matter,
That I wasn't doing much
I said I didn't care for things
Like diamonds, furs and such
I claimed to be so busy
With the things inside my zone,
But deep inside I longed for
Something special of my own.
I couldn't let my life go by,
Just watching others win.
I held my breath and stepped outside
And let the change begin.
I took a step and with new strength
I'd never felt before,
I kissed my Comfort Zone "goodbye"
And closed and locked the door.
If you are in a Comfort Zone,
Afraid to venture out,
Remember that all winners were
At one time filled with doubt.
A step or two and words of praise,
Can make your dreams come true.
Greet your future with a smile,
Success is there for you!
