Premise
*As sales people, we already know (most of )the things we need to do to be
successful
*We just don’t do them (enough)
*Repetition and Reminders are key to our success
*no ‘brain surgery’ or ‘rocket science’ or ‘theories of relativity’ from me
![Page 9: Creative Procrastination (a la Brian Tracy)](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061112/54565117b1af9f39378b4e68/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
HABITS FOR SUCCESS1. Our success in work (and life) is tied directly to the habits (good and bad)
we develop.
2. Habits (good and bad) are learnable through practice and repetition, practice and repetition, practice and repetition (28 consecutive days to develop a good one).
3. Once a skill/habit locks into your subconscious mind it becomes a permanent part of your behavior.
4. Once it becomes a habit, it becomes both automatic and easy to do.
5. Since all of us already know much of what we need to do to be successful, the challenge is: ‘talking the talk’ and ‘walking the walk’, ‘gittin ‘r dun’, just doing it, or just forcing ourselves out of our personal comfort zones

You can learn and master how to overcome the habit of
procrastination. It is a physical and mental skill that can be
learned.

Procrastinate On Purpose
Most people practice ‘unconscious’ procrastination. They procrastinate
without thinking about it and they end up procrastinating on the big, valuable, important tasks that can impact their
career and their lives.

time for the tasks that can make a difference in your life.
