Before anyone jumps on this!
Iโm not anti positive thinking.
In fact, when Iain and I train new sales staff, we absolutely work on mindset.
But not in the fluffy โpma the dealโ way.
We frame it like thisโฆ
Glass half full. Not half empty.
Because when someone is new, we want them hitting the ground running as quick as possible.
We want them earning fast.
We want them getting results for clients fast.
We want momentum.
And the state we coach into them is simple.
Opportunity.
Not fantasy.
Not delusion.
Just thisโฆ
There is a 50% chance of a yes.
And a 50% chance of a no.
Thatโs it.
But hereโs where it goes wrong for most people.
If you focus on the 50% โnoโ, your body follows it.
Your tone shifts.
Your pace changes.
Your shoulders tighten.
Your breathing shortens.
Your questions soften.
You start preparing for rejection before it even happens.
And guess what?
Your physiology broadcasts it.
New Salespeople donโt realise this.
Buyers can feel hesitation before they can articulate it.
So yes, mindset matters.
But PMA alone is overrated.
Because optimism without skill is just fragile confidence.
What actually makes you calm?
That is the question you need to ask yourself.
When skill is strong, your โpositive attitudeโ becomes quiet certainty.
And thatโs very different from hype.
We donโt train people to believe every deal will close.
We train them to believe every conversation is an opportunity.
Thereโs a difference.
And that difference is what earns money.
To Your Success Always! ๐
