The Greatest Cure for a Bad Mood...

I was in a terrible mood this morning. I was thinking about how coffee no longer tastes good, how halloween candy is only going to give me a cavity, and I was wondering if purchasing property on the Salton Sea might actually improve my life. Instead, I picked up the phone and made some calls and all of a sudden I didn't feel like a waste of space.


Outbound work always makes me feel like I've done something, even if nothing happens. For any new SDRs on here, that's my one piece of advice from a guy who's been in the grind for a while. No matter how you feel, make those calls every day.


Also, maybe be good at selling your product. That's important too.

I prefer fluffy mountains of Columbian fun powder and a shopping spree at Saks using someone else's credit card but I suppose this works too.

Thinking about how everyone in your family died and using that as a motivator can work too. Thank Lord Gary V for that one.ย
