- Guest blogger – The Power of Slow
Christine Hohlbaum (shown above) lives in Germany and is just releasing a book called, “The Power of Slow.” It’s such a contrarian idea, I asked her to write a quick guest post.
Sales people are more susceptible to burn-out than most other professionals. Engaging in clock combat to ‘seal the deal’ can even add to the problem.
That is why it is particularly important to embrace a more positive relationship with time. As you step back to look at the Big Picture, you are more readily able to determine what is truly important in your job. That leads to better decisions, which saves you loads of time in the long run. Sustaining a healthy pace through the power of slow and its underlying principles can help you stay the course to success.~~
