The Greatest Salesman in the World, Part Three

Today we’re covering Scrolls Five, Six, and Seven. Remember, nothing great ever just happens. You have to make it happen. The results you want, excellent results, start with excellent thinking.

If you want to change your thinking and if you want to develop the thinking that drives excellent results, spend time daily reading and studying the principles in these scrolls.

Scroll Five: I Will Greet This Day As If It Is My Last

What should you do with today?

What do you want to accomplish today?

The Greatest Salesman in the World, Scroll Five


If you want to make the most of today,
keep moving forward.

Avoid those killers of time that you already know.

Take action.

Avoid people who are standing around talking about what they can’t accomplish
while you go out and accomplish it.

Scroll Six: I’ll Be The Master Of My Emotions

“How do I master my emotions so that each day I will be productive? For unless my mood is right the day will be a failure”

Og Mandino
The Greatest Salesman in the World, Scroll Six

Excellence is not perfection.
Excellence is the pursuit of perfection.

In the pursuit of excellence, you will stumble (sometimes often). Not every day will be perfect.

Make a decision every day to take control of your emotions. Daily preparation, planning, and learning something new will help you prepare your emotions for the day.

Scroll Seven: I Will Laugh At The World

Laughter is a powerful tool.
It helps you put things into
perspective.
Laughter is one of life’s best gifts.
It will make you feel better
and make you more of a
benefit to others.

Stay tuned. Next week we wrap up our series on Og Mandino’s The Greatest Salesman in the World.
