Obstacles are necessary for success because in selling, as in all careers of importance, victory comes only after many struggles and countless defeats. Yet each struggle, each defeat, sharpens your skills and strengths, your courage and your endurance, your ability and your confidence and thus each obstacle is a comrade-in-arms forcing you to become better… or quit. Each rebuff is an opportunity to move forward; turn away from them, avoid them, and you throw away your future.

The way you activate the seeds of your creation is by making choices
about results you want to create. When you make a choice, you mobilize
vast human energies and resources which otherwise go untapped. All too
often people fail to focus their choices upon results and therefore their
choices are ineffective. If you limit your choices only to what seems
possible or reasonable, you disconnect yourself from what you truly want,
and all that is left is a compromise.
