Today will be better than yesterday

The first thought of many successful CEOs at the beginning of every day is:"I will work today to be better than yesterday."  This underpins everything and needs to be our daily mantra.  Emile Coue', a French philosopher who lived a Century ago, was a proponent of "auto-suggestion"--using your own mind to convince yourself how good and important you are.  He started every day with the thought: "every day in every way I'm getting better and better."

In a couple of earlier posts, I discussed the importance of posture--good posture gives you confidence--posing like a super hero makes you feel like a super hero.  Well, constantly talking in positive terms to yourself--"auto-suggestion"--and telling yourself that you are good and you are smart and you can do good is just as important as good posture.  All of these components go to making up a good salesperson and a good sales call. Any successful professional sports figure has to have two essential components: positive mental attitude and excellent physical capabilities.  Mental attitude is critical to success in sales.  Start your day:

Every Day in Every Way I'm Getting Better and Better; and I Will Work Today to be Better Than Yesterday.
