Are Top Salespeople Champions?

Is there a difference between a Winner and a Champion? Why do some people achieve their goals and others do not? Are the Top Salespeople Champions? Let me answer these questions for you by offering my personal observation.

There is a reality show in the United States titled; 'Dancing with the Stars'. Celebrities learn to dance many ballroom dances in unreasonably short time frames and then perform weekly on stage in front of millions. They are all winners for overcoming their fears and succeeding to complete their dances regardless if the judges gave them high or low marks or the viewing audience voted them back for another week or not. The champion is the one left standing after all the eliminations are completed.

My observation is that each of the celebrities are paired up with a Professional and Champion ballroom dancer who teaches them the dance and performs it with them on stage. From Champion to Champion when they worked with the frustrated celebrity they have all continued to provide words of inspiration with positive motivation. Defeat or not winning is not even considered by the Champion. They focus only on keeping the celebrity focused and remind them that they can and will do it. No matter how difficult the routine or short the availability of time they always get it done. This is the true nature of a Champion.

Top Salespeople I have found will share this in common with the Champion. Defeat is not an option. Optimistic and positive inspiration is their life. Setting goals and then creating a plan for execution is their routine. I believe that Top Salespeople are the Gold Medalists in business. What are you doing to be a Gold Medalist Champion in your career, in your organization and in your personal life?

Be mindful of your attitude. Help are others to succeed with your insights and positive words. Set Goals and then create a plan which you are prepared to follow. Be a Champion.
