They say when the student is ready the teacher will appear, but they never anything about when a teacher should become the student again.
In 23 years of selling, I’d had bad months, but never finished dead last 2 months in a row. I did everything I knew to do. I didn’t blame or voice my frustrations, I cheered myself on, listened to positive messages, & fought like hell to not compare myself to others.
Yet when the dust settled, Buice, the teacher, was dead last.
The only thing I didn’t do was ask for help. I dropped my pride & asked those who witnessed first hand me coming in last, “What am I doing wrong.”
And they let me know. This was the day the teacher became the student.
On today’s episode of The Sales Life: Sales Edition I’ll share with you 5 lessons I learned by finishing dead last.
No matter what position you hold, it’s always a good idea to be the student from time to time.
Thank you for watching. I’d love to hear your takeaways and comments.
