On this day in 1912, American aviator Harriet Quimby became the first woman to fly across the English Channel, guiding her monoplane through heavy overcast from Dover, England, to Hardelot, France.
So why is this important to you, high-flying sales star?
One word: courage.
Flying a rickety plane built in 1912 across the English Channel took immense courage.
Getting out of bed each morning smiling and pushing your customers toward "yes" takes courage, too.
Neither is easy, but both are exhilarating!
