Back in around 1972 i talked to a guy who did cold calling "door to door" which is about the hardest kind of sales;

And he was happy, and he had a 1966 Cadillac convertible with red leather seats;

And while we rode in it, he was asked: "How can you DO such a hard job"?

And he told us this:


"The way I see it, is that each rejection takes me that much closer to the next sale."


~~~

I never forgot that. I think it was a great life lesson to hear..
