3 Life Tips to Get Ahead in Life Are you not as happy as you should be? Are you having money problems? Are you having trouble just getting ahead in life? Confront these 3 fundamental things and you will start winning more: #1 You are a salesperson. No matter how much you may hate sales, you must confront the fact that you are in sales. Every interaction you have with a person is a sale. Sales is simply about persuasion. To win in life, you have to get people to agree with you. #2 Commissions equal freedom. Being on commission means your compensation is based on the % of a volume of sales you make. But commissions are really receiving anything. Just because you’re on salary doesn’t mean you’re not on commission. If you don’t do your job well you’ll lose it. Health is a commission for eating healthy. #3 Salespeople are responsible for everything that happens in the world. Think about this, for anything to happen, somebody needs to be closed. Deals, agreements, and action all require a sale, otherwise, nothing happens!
