The Business of Keeping Physically Fit and Mentally Capable

It\'s important for a salesman to have mental clarity and a

healthy body to perform at the best of his, or her

abilities. Our mind and body feed off each other. They go

hand and hand. One affects the otherlike a seesaw.

If you have a body complaint it will constantly be on your

mind. It may keep you from getting the proper sleep and rest.

Nagging at you. If you have some type of mental disturbance

it will be reflected in your body posture and demeanor.

If you approach a prospect when you\'re feeling ill, or going

through mental turmoil, you won\'t be able to give your sales

presentation the gusto and conviction it deserves. Your sales

will suffer.

By approaching your prospect in a sluggish manner with a

hangdog look on your face you will prevent your prospect from

seeing you as someone who is capable of rendering them any

kind of service.

But if you approach your prospect with full mental capacities,

feeling strong and healthy and deliver a sales talk that

encompasses the five fundamental elements of selling, you will

impress them as someone they would be pleased to do business

with.

So what can you do to stay healthy?

Put down that mousestep a-w-a-y from the computer. Get plenty

of exercise and the proper amount of sleepat least 7 to 8 hours

each night. Eat in moderation and make sure you\'re giving

yourself a well balanced diet. Drink plenty of water. See your

doctor annually and at the first sign there could be a problem.

Some things, when treated early can be managed without

further complications.

Then too, some of us have a tendency to blow things out of

proportion. We may imagine a simple sinus headache to be a brain

tumor. I\'m sure you probably have known someone who meets this

description. Don\'t magnify small things into insurmountable

obstacles.

If you have some bad habits that are contributing to your poor

mental state, or physical ailments, break yourself from them,

or they\'ll break you.

Staying healthy is an important aspect of any undertaking. If

you don\'t feel your best, you won\'t do your best. So while you\'re

working to improve your business, use that same energy to improve

your health. It may help you land the sale.
