Skill + Do
Monday through Friday, you compete. AND YOU LOVE IT. (Good!)
One of the reasons you’re in sales is the fulfillment you get from being in the game.
So how do you reconcile the need to maintain a competitive edge M-F while relaxing and being mindful on the weekends?
Simple: you just do. You work on switching ’em on and off as needed.
Take Steph Curry for example. Whether you actively follow the NBA or not, you know he’s a hyper-competitive baller. And yet, when you watch him play, you see he’s having fun too.
It’s hard to turn off the flow of your competitive juices on the weekend. You run hot in the red-zone Monday through Friday which means it’s sometimes hard to get your body and mind to chill on days of the week that start with an "S."
That’s okay.
Asking a fighter to not fight is a lot to ask.
But you can have it all ways you want: decide to relax and chill this weekend. You’ll switch it back on Monday.
