On June 3rd, 2016, Muhammad Ali “Cassius Clay” “The Greatest of All Time” Boxer passed away at the age of 74 years old.
The boxing legend was well known for his fast boxing move and power punches as well as his inspiring & controversial both outside & inside of the ring!
The heavyweight champion never gave up and believed that he could do what he would be the best in boxing even before he knew he could do it! His motivation is on point and because he believed in himself, he never seems to fail!
Even after he was pushed down i.e getting stripped from his title & his boxing license, he got back up and went back to a boxing match with Jerry Quarry, Joe Frazier II, and ultimately won.
In all instances, he was knocked out one way or another but he never blames anyone or anything. He worked hard and trained even harder, never give up and persist further.
“I AM THE GREATEST, I SAID IT BEFORE I KNEW I WAS.”
At that time Muhammad Ali didn’t know how great he was going to be but he believed that he will be the greatest, he reminded himself every single day that one day he will be the greatest and because of that, HE WAS!
56 WINS, 5 LOSS, and 37 KOs
In sales, when you don’t think you can do it, you will most likely fail, because you set your mind to believe that you will fail. For example, you think that tough times cannot sell luxury items and you blame the bad economy. WRONG, throw away that “blaming mindset” and start believing you can sell!
“SILENCE IS GOLDEN WHEN YOU CAN’T THINK OF A GOOD ANSWER”
Silence is crucial in the sales world. You need to know when to talk, how to talk, and when to have that golden silence where the buyers will consciously make their decision and choice on whether they want to purchase, give it about 3 minutes before asking them & close that sales!
“HE WHO IS NOT COURAGEOUS ENOUGH TO RISKS WILL ACCOMPLISH NOTHING IN LIFE.”
