Vol III: #82 Two Weeks Ago


Two weeks ago, I was mired in a long losing streak. It was terrible. And as I wrote in my previous post, I hated feeling like a failure, but instead of running, instead of cutting my losses for safer ground, I dug in and went to work. After 43 years of life, I’d finally learned to run toward my flaws, not away from them. And yesterday, I closed my first sale. I texted a handful of my faithful supporters, and went out for noodles and ice cream to celebrate.

And then today, I received two more verbals commitments, meaning I’m signed paperwork away from closing two more sales. That’s makes three in two days. My hope is this new streak- a winning streak- is the beginning of something special, for me and our company. But mostly, I want to let myself enjoy the accomplishment, of fighting through fear and failure to do something I didn’t believe I could.
