- Above all the tips and tricks I give you throughout this course. My biggest is simple and stands alone from the rest of the course. Try to enjoy yourself. That applies to life as well as to your sales career. If you change your mindset to be positive, then you're far more likely to experience positive things. If you're expecting things to go wrong, then they will. The old theory of, if you ask the universe for something it will deliver, is true. It's not magic, it's simply your own mental affirmation which will subconsciously set you on the path to find the happiness or success that you seek. When you're expecting bad things to happen. Your blinkers are on to all the good things around you. So you won't experience them. Plus when a bad thing does happen, as it does to all of us, then you'll think to yourself, of course, it happened. I knew it would, mentally affirming that bad things only happen to you. If you're looking for the good and you believe that those things can happen, then your eyes are open and you'll subconsciously accept the good opportunities. And if you're a happy and positive person, then you attract happy and positive people. I mean that in terms of friends, business partners, acquaintances, the lot. So if you're in a good positive mood and you're enjoying it, then two things will happen. Firstly, you will attract good things, friendly people, basis opportunities, good advice, and generally good things like discounts or free stuff or Q-jumps, whatever. Secondly, you will internally be open to these things. When these opportunities present themselves, you'll actually see them and you'd be mad to not accept them. Which will in turn make you happier and more positive again, a double hit. So enjoy yourself whenever you can, sit in the sun, listen to (indistinct) play with a dog, have a laugh with your customers. Just generally make a conscious effort to have more fun in your life. So with that aside, let's move on to your first subject. Building resilience to rejection.
