Thought(s) for the Week

Posted on March 21, 2010 under Thoughts for the Week.

  

Perhaps the most valuable result of all education is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do, when it ought to be done, whether you like it or not; it is the first lesson that ought to be learned; and however early a man’s training begins, it is probably the last lesson that he learns thoroughly.       Thomas H. Huxley        English biologist (1825 – 1895)

 ”Our doubts are traitors, and make us lose the good we oft might win, by fearing to attempt.”  - William Shakespear

    Final Thoughts

    Keep in mind that nobody on his or her deathbed ever says “Back in 2008 -2010, I made my numbers 13 quarters in a row.’ 

    Thanks for being here and remember:   Reinvent yourself daily; life is sales (the rest is details); pay it forward; learn something new daily; when it comes to closing the deal, ‘nice try’ isn’t good enough; make it a great week and go sell  something.

      How are you??? When given the opportunity in between families visting, tennis programs, artshows and gallery time I do pay attention to your weekly thoughts and they are ALWAYS>>>>>>repeat>>>>>>ALWAYS uplifting, motivating and RIGHT ON!!!!!!!!!!

      I have been selling a lot of my art. One reason is because I am not that timid artist waiting for the right person to come along and like it to buy it. I talk with everyone who comes into the gallery/studio. I network through those who have purchased and go directly to the designers these people are using for the home interiors. I am working on developing a website…have not had enough time to get it done….but will.

      Thank You for giving me these weekly gifts of re-examining how to design and close the sale!!!!

      Hugs to both you and BJ!!!! Miss you more than you know!
      Deb
