New problems every day, and I keep finding a way through

I meant to listen to a few lessons from The Greatest Salesman in the World before work, but after three short sessions I still had not finished, and it was time to start. I wasted time and made my ears sore. Luckily the physical book arrives in two days. I can read it aloud, practice talking to myself, and see whether that kind of self-suggestion helps.

Compared with the day before yesterday, I resisted work much less today. Still, I held back from adding more contacts. I worried that the pool of customers was limited: after this school, would I have to move to another, and after this city to another city? What if I ran out and could not meet my target? Instead of keeping the worry inside, I wrote it down to ask AI.

The day went so smoothly that I almost did not know what to write. I still fear tomorrow’s sales work most evenings, even though I manage to do it well each day. I know my sense of responsibility helps, but I also wonder whether this way of thinking is healthy or sustainable.

After asking AI, I began to see my fear of a finite customer pool as a scarcity mindset I should challenge. More useful is believing that I can find and build new relationships. I want to bring my best self to each person I meet and trust that I can build a network wherever I go. That is the belief I want to practice. Perhaps it will help you too!
