You know what the sales party is right? When we all get together at the end of the year to celebrate our success. One month is already in the books for 2012. Where are your sales results? Are you tracking ahead or behind? If you are at all like me, then sometimes you procrastinate. "I have 11 more months to get my results," "I'll make those phone calls later" "Nobody is in this week"
Don't you just hate it when you call on someone and they tell you "we just made a change" or "you should have called last month" Too late! We all know what happens, tomorrow becomes the day after tomorrow, next week becomes next month and before we now it another year has passed. As Dr. Martin Luther King said many years ago:
"We are now faced with the fact, my friends, that tomorrow is today. We are confronted with the fierce urgency of now. In this unfolding conundrum of life and history, there is such a thing as being too late. Procrastination is still the thief of time. Life often leaves us standing bare, naked, and dejected with a lost opportunity. The tide in the affairs of men does not remain at flood -- it ebbs. We may cry out desperately for time to pause in her passage, but time is adamant to every plea and rushes on. Over the bleached bones and jumbled residues of numerous civilizations are written the pathetic words, "Too late."
Words that were true then and are still true today. Whatever you are waiting to do, do it today! Let's get the party started, before it's too late.
