Being Your Best – Inside Sales Career Success (3 of 3)

“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” ~ Aristotle

Being your best is not an event or a single act, it is coming in every single day and doing your best work.

I’ll share a secret (so I guess it isn’t a secret anymore) – the definition of my best is NOT the same every day.

• What excites you each day is different, use that passion – pick activity that capitalizes on it.
• Some days your energy will be lower than others – instead of beating yourself up, use what you have available.
• Change it up – there are different ways to reach the same goal, don’t get bored… remember to make it fun.

The picture is of my brother, Henry, on a day when being his best WAS THE BEST. He doesn’t win every single triathlon he enters. Here are a few key tips to help you on your quest to be your best:

1. To win you must enter.
2. If you aren’t at your very best, you still can give it your all.
3. To be your best, you have to train.
4. In order to finish first, one must first finish (as kids we heard this from my Dad over & over again!).
5. Belief is as important as behaviors.

Give it your all and your Inside Sales Career Success will soar.
