Nelson Mandela isn’t Nelson Mandela because he was president. He’s Nelson Mandela because he was imprisoned for decades and came out with love in his heart for his opponents as opposed to hatred and bitterness. Success is an inside job. You shouldn’t make a single sales call until you’ve spent a minimum of one hour working on you every morning.
