#126 It’s right there

Last night I asked my daughter if she had homework..she had 2 pages left- the first one she banged out, but the second?!!....man she hemmed & hawed not wanting to read the short story & answer the questions on the back. ...it’s funny how Life will teach us something from a innocent 5th grade homework assignment 👉👉👉Thanks for listening..I appreciate the support and feedback.

#124 Make Believe

Seeing a little boy in his driveway, knees bent looking up into the thick, fluffy clouds really got to me. I realized as a “grown up” I stopped looking up & imagining everything that is available to me...so many possibilities...I created my own fences & stopped making my beliefs. Today’s episode is a reminder to me (& you) that although Life can take crazy turns, it’s never too late to make your beliefs unlimited again. 👉👉Go handle up👉👉I’ll see you on the Blacktop!

#124 Fearcasting

The 7 day forecast is calling for rain...and even though it may rain everyday, I still have to go to work, take the kids to school, go to the store, & workout...in other words Life still has to go on- I just have to adjust and keep it moving. It’s crazy how we see the storms coming in the commonalities of Life, but when we see the dark skies of something potentially more serious we freeze up..Fearcasting instead of forecasting- we accept and do nothing productivly instead of seeing what’s loomin...

#122 The opp to struggle

A friend of mine told me the other day that he’d bought a boat for a fraction of the price bc it had a cracked frame. He re-welded, replaced the rivets & now it’s as good as new...his young son gets out there w him too & occasionally builds things on his own. When I asked him how he’s taught his son how to do these things he said that he tells his son, “When you’re struggling, make progress first then come ask for help if you haven’t figured it out.” Right then & there I realized that I’ve been ...

#121 To hell w/ reruns

Now I like The Jeffersons, Good Times, & Martin- I’m not talking about those reruns..I’m talking about the reruns of negative emotions that have become unconsciously layered..entrenched within...reruns that have sabotaged your success & caused you to always pick Mr/Mrs Wrong. Why do you keep picking crazy...why are you barely getting by even though you make more...why you can’t make a come up in Life? Reruns dude...listen in👉👉Share your thoughts w me @ thesaleslife1@gmail.com👉👉Thanks for listeni...

#120 You ain’t weak, you big

Jill Bolte Taylor is a Harvard Brain Scientist who suffered a stroke causing her to lose her memory, speech, & the ability to think about the future. In many ways it was the worst thing that could’ve happened to her..but it also one of the best things that could’ve happened for her. In her book “Stroke of Insight” Taylor discovered that a chemical is automatically released in our system when powerful emotions such as anger, jealousy, & resentment are triggered- the chemical shoots through & out ...

#119 You got next 🏀

Recently I learned 3 plays from sports psychologist / mental toughness coach Graham Betchart. These plays piggyback well in what we’ve been talking about recently which is looking at mistakes differently, not letting humps become Himalayas (mountains) in your Life, & working with precision not “ish.” I’d urge you to find the holes in your daily performance and go back and listen to those episodes. So Graham starts by giving his professional athletes 3 plays: W.I.N, Play Present, & Next Play Spee...

#117 This just ain’t about You

In speaking to a new salesperson- I never could get her to work with more customers- she knew her product & had worked in a male dominated industry before, so what was it? When I asked her she said, “I don’t have a high need like these other salespeople- they have rent to pay & I just have to make a lot...” I told her that “This isn’t just about you....” 👉👉No matter what your title is, we’re all in Sales and this eppy is for you. 👉👉Please Share your thoughts and episode w someone who you think c...

#114 Humps not Himalayas

Humps, roadblocks...detours..they’re all a part of Life but too often we look at the humps in our lives as Himalayas— we look at a kneecap sized problem as a big ass insurmountable mountain in our lives.

#113 “ish”

I was talking to a guy the other day and he was telling me how last month ended bad...this month is starting worse...and come to find out, his months have progressively gotten worse in sales. So I asked him a simple question, “What time did you get to work today...yesterday..?” Some of us start our days in the hole...we’re in debt to our day- freaking out, yelling, & weaving through traffic bc we live with an “ish” creed. You’re a pro, act like it. 👉👉Thanks for checking out the podcast. Please s...

I’m not a gratitude journal nor To Do List kind of guy- many find this helpful, but not for me- I found I was inconsistent & non productive doing these things.

#109 But what if it will?

We’re hardwired to think negative- it’s engrained in us bc when our ancestors had to hunt for food, they had to think negative bc one bad move could mean death. Today we still think negative-one way we do it is we think, “What if it won’t work?” Today’s eppy asks, what if you were bold enough to ask, “But what if it will...” This simple mind-shift will help you get out of your mental rut. 👉👉Let me know your thoughts @ thesaleslife1@gmail.com Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/marshbuice...

Eric Thomas said, “There are people who operate in life by feelings & those who operate by mentality.” Today’s eppy deals with the Twin Towers of your power: Inspiration & Aspiration.

#105 Can you drive stick?

I think we treat learning opportunities like we do a 5 speed transmission..when you’re learning how to drive stick it’s hard bc there’s so much going on- using both feet w/ 3 pedals, staying on the road, & stopping & starting...it’s so much easier to plunk down in that automatic trans and let the car shift gears for you. Today’s eppy challenges you to put yourself in the driver’s seat today and learn how to drive stick- put yourself into the awkwardness and learn something that you normally shy ...

There are 5 basic sounds produced by the vocal chords- vowels & consonants. Though only 5, these 5 sounds, when paired together, can literally bring life or death to you and your future. Who knows what many could’ve accomplished or what you and I are capable of accomplishing if it were not for ...or it’s because of the 5 sounds.

#103 Don’t Be Brittle

Chess prodigy Josh Waitzkin, was on lighting young chess players up on his quest to becoming a national chess champion. He was doing so well that he thought he was invincible until a "nobody" sat him down-beating him out of his crown-nearly destroying his desire to ever play chess again. It wasn't until Josh uplugged-got away from it all and went out sailing that he got 2 of his most valuable lessons from being on the water: Be present & release control. Some days we're thinking too far ahead......
