07:27. Saturday. Early start and working all weekend. One project – Sales Heights U/Sonic U.
All the methods and conversations. The principles, both those sales-honed and the universal. Getting in a run today, before noon. Aims mapped. And they will materialize. Still have some pieces to post from yesterday. May save for a book idea that wrapped itself around me this morning, after taking the Nurse to work, for her…
14:55 —> Up from a quick rest. Still fucking drained from yesterday and with this new project, I need to allocate energy where most optimal.
Find myself second-guessing. What else can I do, when all I have are my own thoughts. Well, a simple answer, DON’T FUCKING DO THAT. Doubt yourself why. What does that accomplish? And all the fucking time you spent doing that, gone. You’re not getting it back. So, restart. TOPIC.NEXT. The Sales Heights idea started by…

Meeting in 9.
Putting self in a sales mode and mood. Techniques… examining my value, what I contribute to this company and its curriculum. Curriculum for today, a return to Strength. What the Nurse has taught me. Holding resources and funds where they are, there could be a shift. This writer, moving quick this morning. Someone I know,…
Changing my attitude and assessment, how I sell and convince myself.
On the Leadership meeting call right now, Field Sales. Thinking on the drive over here, about the words sales and the most common reactions to hearing or seeing, or READING the word. Playing with that ick reaction, taunting it. Educating from it… conviction, Storytelling, sharing, human connectivity. Notes, not sentences. Force your own smile… Meeting…
At the desk. Chipping away at latte. Lots on mind, but taking each echo with a slow and more moderated meaning.
No trainees today, or the rest of the week I found. But, going into office tomorrow. Trainee, one, based in SoCal, next week. I of course teaching over Teams, no travel needed thank the Universe, with the holiday. Not in the mood for any crowds. How to manage the day. Start with attitude, mood. What…

09:20 in office, moving more than just a single mile a minute. Refusing to let the morning or day or anyone or anything slow me. Four blogs, no…. Sticking to this one and making it work. Overhead, ZERO. Prepping for a 30-day check-in with a Rep. Field Sales. Writing more curriculum as the day stretches…

This week. A project. Simplicity, Mental Health, STRENGTH. Vacaville, 10:27. The weekend has passed me like it wanted everything and nothing to do with me. Diet Coke, music with the Nurse in our Vacaville home. Nothing about me is registered in complaint. All celebratory, all MINDFUL of where I am, what I am, all the…
Meditation.
Yesterday, before checking out… Bodega Bay, CA. 1114/25

08:27 Bodega Bay. Getting ready to leave our room for a bit, get coffee. The fireplace relaxes me. Need to write with the little time before me. Sun breaking though fog, low clouds. News on but low volume. The need to travel is in every thought, breaking my concentration from where I guess you could…
Never tire of the vineyards
And all the Peace they share.
