Dealing with Stress as a Sales Professional

Notes:

You cannot eliminate all sources of stress. Also, some stress is good to push us forward. I want to talk about how I “Handle” my stress. As in I’m still stressed if you will, but here’s how I handle it.

Sources of Stress:

  1. Too many items on the plate
  2. Surprises while there are too many things on the plate
  3. Health scares
  4. Lack of sleep
  5. Uncertainty
  6. Not hitting set goals

How I Deal With It:

  • Understand that some things are going to slip – I stopped sending out my 4/1/1 newsletter, slowed down on YouTube
  • Prioritize and execute
  • Don’t things linger
  • Say no.
  • Dig your well
  • Find something you enjoy outside of work.
