We are nothing more than a compilation of habits, acted upon day after day. 👻My worst habit: too much screen time before bed 🌟My best: reading every single day.
Start your day with a plan. Know where you want to go and how you want to get there. Remember that though your route and maybe even your destination might change, your principles will stay the same.
I'm always amazed how so many business prioritize potential new customers over loyal, sometimes long term existing customers with special deals, attention and personal care. NEWSFLASH - that is the WRONG WAY around!

Different personality types bring different benefits to every team. Make sure you hire a diverse set of thinkers–the extrovert and the introvert can make great leaders for totally different reasons.
Unpopular (& unsolicited) opinion #1: Don't join a rocketship if you don't love the work and aren't prepared to give it your all, 100% of the time.
If you aren't adding value or passionate about what you are building–get out. You shouldn't be there. #quietquitting
Being a skilled negotiator isn't relying on tactics to help you win. It's about being organized and KNOWING the history of the back and forth with a prospect–it's about reasonable compromise.
Here's why: No one wants to lose. Knowing will help you best position your offer.
And DYK: 67% of the answers to those basic questions can be answered by reviewing data gathered earlier in the buying journey. No longer do salespeople need to play the old game of 20 questions with their prospects.
3) To be aware. The best salespeople are far more aware of their customers’ context than ever before, and they’re proactive about learning everything they can from Day 1 – a discipline we call “digital pre-discovery.”
