    Remember the Victories

    Thursday, June 14, 2012, 12:22 PM [General]

    I remember one day of selling that was particularly awful. It was one of those days where my numbers were so bad my supervisor considered sending me home early just so I wouldn't hurt the overall percentages for the team that day. It was a good thing she didn't send me home because I finished the day with one sale! One whole sale,Cheap Green Bay Packers Jerseys! This is a business where I should have had at least 10 sales per day at that point. One victory does go a long way. That win for Tampa Bay was so big that they went on to win the next week too, closing out their season at 2-12! Had John McKay's team focused on the first 26 games instead of number 27,Cheap Dwayne Bowe Jersey, that second win wouldn't be there. Neither would the five-win season the following year or the playoff run in just their fourth year of existence. How could I get excited about one sale? How excited were the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after Week 13 of the 1977 NFL season? After 26-consecutive losses spanning two seasons to start the franchise, the team in Creamsicle and cream (with those colors, what were they expecting?) finally had its first victory. The whole key is to remember those victories. Everyone has victories. It's just that sometimes we have to dig back into our archives to find them. Two places this can be very challenging are in sports and in sales. I have enjoyed both wins and losses in both those categories... and many times a lot more losses than wins. When it seems like all you see are losses,Cheap Lofa Tatupu Jersey, it becomes very difficult to see any victories in your future. Those losses will eat your lunch if you let them, but victories will set your table. Had I dwelled on all those sales I didn't get that day,Donovan McNabb redskins Jersey, I would have been in big trouble. Not only would I have missed out on that one sale that day,Cheap Karl Mecklenburg Jersey, but I would have also missed out on doubling my sales goal the next day (which I certainly did). The key for me was remembering the victories I had the day before and even farther back. Focusing on those is what made me the top salesman on my team that week despite having a day with only one sale. Remember the victories, and you will have a lot more of them. Remember the losses,Cheap Chester Taylor Jersey, and you will have a lot more of them.
