Actionable tips:

• Instead of focusing solely on the end goal, set goals around your daily actions (e.g., “Have five quality conversations each day”) to stay grounded.
• Don’t let the pressure to hit numbers control your well-being. Focus on mastering your skills and building strong client relationships instead of chasing every sale.

“Tantalus: The greatest power is—

Thyestes: No power at all, if you want for nothing." - Seneca

Desire can be a trap.

The chase for more, whether it’s deals, status, or recognition, can leave you unfulfilled. True power comes from needing less.

In The Lord of the Rings, Frodo’s strength isn’t in possessing the ring but in letting it go. The same applies to sales.

Obsessing over numbers can drain you, but focusing on mastery and meaningful connections brings lasting success.

Remember you will die.
