Episode 223 – Mindset of a Sales Warrior with Jason Forrest
In this episode, there is gold when it comes to mindset no matter where you find yourself in life, leadership or your sales roles you will learn a ton from our special guest, Jason Forrest. Jason shares that when he wrote the book Leadership Sales Coaching many years ago, he took the philosophy that a salesperson is an athlete, and should be coached like an athlete not managed like an employee.
There are circumstances in life, and then there’s the meaning we give it. Whatever charge you have in your life that’s kind of holding you back, you’re putting too much meaning into it, we’ve got to let go of that charge.
A warrior always finds an advantage. And so what’s the advantage that I can do here? How can I leverage it? You know, how can I change my thinking around this? I think that’s the message everyone needs to hear is whatever, whatever charge you have in your life that’s kind of holding you back, you’re putting too much meaning to it, you know, we’ve got to let go of that charge.
Jason wrote The Mindset of Sales Warrior, the book has 42 different strategies on how to remove the self-image stories you’re locked into. The Mindset of a Sales Warrior will help you be a better husband, a better wife, a better teacher, a better speaker, a better coach, and just a better influencer overall, in your general life.
