‘All of us in the business world, whether we realize it or not, signed up for a sales job.’

‘You are always selling. Your products. Your ideas. Your whole self.’

‘If you’re truly passionate about what it is you’re selling and can tell a story about why you love your product and your company, you don’t need to avail yourself of any slick tricks you might associate with selling.’

‘The feeling your customer leaves with after that conversation will inform their decision to come back or go somewhere else.’

‘You can’t own a business without owning your mistakes.’

‘Employees don’t really want an environment with no rules; they want to be engaged in a worthy cause and feel proud of what they create.’

Sometimes, no product is better than a substandard one.’

‘How you comport yourself in all your daily interactions with employees, clients, and peers is an act of salesmanship, because the way you act is an advertisement to keep working with you or run the other way, to dive in and invest more time and money in what you’re doing, or to cut losses and bounce.’

‘The healthiest businesses are the ones that operate in a culture of accountability.’

‘Moments of crisis reveal who a person really is.’

Leading Yourself

by Bright Osadiaye, posted in Health & Well-Being, Improve Academy, Leadership, Management, Personal Development, Workplace Learning Report

Here is one POWERFUL question for you: ‘Do you feel worthy just because you are alive?’

What do you think?

Because ‘Our ability to be our own solution versus the thing that stands in the way of our success is the only way through and to the life we want for ourselves.’

‘We need to find a way to ground ourselves in our own self-worth, learning to validate ourselves.’

‘The important thing is to have self-confidence in the activities in your life that matter to you and a high sense of self-worth overall.’

‘It’s almost impossible to have strong self-confidence if we are in a constant state of doubting our worth.’

‘Understanding what we are amazing at and what we are suck at are critical to building self-confidence.’

‘If you don’t get comfortable with your own self-imposed limitations, someone else will happily step in to limit your potential.’

‘We must understand and name our fears if we are to conquer them.’

‘The things we fear can impact our decision-making, our ability to innovate, and even the morale of those around us.’

‘The steps we take are more important than how large those steps were.’

‘When we learn how to focus on a bigger mission, it will make overcoming any irrational fears or even facing real obstacles easier to bypass.’

‘Without the will to be different or better, change can never be sustainable.’
