\nWhatever the method may be, the successful don\\’t think in terms of hard work (even though they are, of course, willing to work hard). Instead, they figure out how to work \u201csmart\u201d and handle the situation by finding and using the right approach until they succeed. The unsuccessful always find work to be difficult because they never take enough time to improve their approach and make it easier on themselves. The first three years of my life as a salesperson was hard work and gave me sporadic results at best.
