The Art of Selling idea

I like to study "The Art of War" by Sun-Tzu. Even though its about war, strategy, and tactics; many life lessons can be drawn from it. And while many people have read "The Art of War", few people have read it. Everyone I know who has "read" it went through it in an hour or so, reading every line, and saying they understood it. I'm not of the opinion that this is the way its intended to be read. To truly read the art of war, I recommend reading a single page, then thinking about it for the next 2 or 3 days in your free time. After you've meditated on it for a couple days, read another page. Its like condensed fruit juice, there is a whole pitcher of wisdom to be had in a small container, but you'll only get benefit from it if you take the time to prepare it.

So in that vein I'm doing a little thing on here called "The Art of Selling" The man I work for is truly a genius, and he's doing his best to teach us about being a salesperson, but he gives it to us all at once and I simply do not learn like that. So I'm going to put it in the format set down by Sun-Tzu. I'm writing down stuff he says then every few days I will add something to the blog. A single line of wisdom that he has given us so that I can think about it and think about how to apply it to my life. I realize that I doubt anyone even knows about the existence of this little blog, but you never know, maybe someday I will get a reaction to one of them and it will help move my train of thought into a direction I wouldn't have seen on my own. Yeah, I'm being optimistic again, I should really stop that shit.
