MKE Week 10 – I Love Persistence

Ah, we started a new scroll today in The Greatest Salesman in the World. Scroll III, persistence.

This I relate to completely and I was immediately happy when I started reading it. I am, without a doubt, persistent.

I believe reading this scroll daily will help me become persistent in other areas of my life where I have not applied this, for whatever reason.

I have seen seemingly small, but very impactful changes while applying the exercises in this course. I am much nicer to people I do not know — the customer service rep on the phone, the person I ask for help in the store, the people I realize I’ve taken out my daily frustrations on for so long.

Such a small change in my thought process has brought about such an impactful change in my life. And it impacts them and me. I am much happier when I don’t take my frustrations out on other people.

An example – yesterday morning did not go well for me. I could tell I was about to overreact. I knew I needed a mental break. I took a break and took a short walk with my dogs to clear my mind. I was able to get back to work without disrupting things because of my perceived mistreatment.

I look forward to seeing how applying persistence in all areas of my life impacts me.
