Sales Training and Training Your Self

One thing I have found in sports, business, politics and even writing. That if you are training yourself, you had better be brutally honest, but perhaps we are our biggest critics. It does not matter if you are training yourself for sports to become a better writer. In writing of course, it is the easier path to hire a copyrighter, editor or an expert (safer too), but for those who take the path less traveled, well lets just say it is a very bumpy road, so beware. But I do believe the inner critic if you give it strength of character and consideration will follow you thru.

The good thing about training yourself is that you will find new innovative ways of doing things, which can hyperspace you past the norm. The bad thing is that when you hyperspace you anger your opponents, make bigger corrections, create change and cause severe disruption while making yourself a target, highlighting your mistakes and of course causing chaos and controversy along the way! I have accepted all these, have you? And do not answer so fast, but consider this in your sales career.

If you are going to train yourself you need discipline and stick-to-it-ness, as well as committing yourself to doing it right. Can you train yourself to be a better salesperson? Indeed anyone can, as there are more than enough books, tapes and videos out there, but no matter how you do it, you must be dedicated to the cause. So, consider all this in 2006.
