Are you stuck in your head? Many of us are left frustrated when deals don't go our way and we sometimes get into bad habits in our sales game. Dan explains that while it is normal to experience frustration once in a while, we run the risk of a prolonged slump if we don't get out of our heads and back onto the 'field.' Dan explains how the book, UnF*ck Yourself by Gary John Bishop was a game changer for him in 2018 and he takes us through some of the book's key points including:
- People spend their lives waiting for the cavalry all the while never realizing they are the cavalry
