In any endeavor every hand is a winner and every hand is a loser. The art is how you play it.
More than half the time I am hiding out in my car, looking busy, doing eye wash to look good. That is fine for most jobs but if you are a business owner or a sales person, someone trying to achieve a specific objective it is poison and a waste of time.
I have done it. I have been fired, laid off, chased off jobs as an executive and a front line person because I couldn’t break the habit. I didn’t want to fail, I didn’t want to be embarrassed, explain to my family why I am switching jobs again, why I had to dip into my retirement, run up the credit cards, take out a loan. All because the job was so adverse all that shit was easier than actually working.
Juxtaposition that against the times I made a sale or was in the done, connecting with people. I loved those. But getting myself into the zone, trucking my mind, making the bed, self starting etc. getting the engine started and into gear. If only I could find that mindset on a consistent basis.
