The place is buzzing with excitement. Kids and adults are talking and preparing for yet another session; however this session is special. HE will be there. HE will be conducting the session himself. And they can’t believe they’re going to receive instruction from one of the country’s most advanced Martial Arts experts.
Will he be quiet? Mean? Aggressive? Will he be tall, short, thin or heavy? They all wonder. They’ve heard countless stories of his victories.
He’s a 5th Degree Black Belt
Only four of them exist in the entire country.
And then, he arrives
Can you sense the anticipation? Can you imagine the respect, excitement, fear? Have you EVER had the privilege to compete against one of the BEST of the BEST? The BEST in his or her field? And there are 5th Degree Black-Belts in all types of sports and areas. The best. Period. Of the BEST.
What would it have been like to play your VERY first pro basketball game against a guy named Michael Jordan? Or how would you have liked the opportunity to fight against Mohammed Ali? Or how about playing nine holes with Tiger Woods? Or playing some ball with Babe Ruth?
Or what about brain storming book ideas with Stephen King, or talking art with Van Gough? Or discussing sculpting with Leonardo Davinci?
There are good athletes, great athletes, and then there’s Michael, Tiger, Mohammed, and The Babe….
Good authors and artists, great authors and artists, and then there’s Stephen, Van, and Leonardo.
You can’t really use a word to describe them. People try by saying things like The World’s GREATEST or The BEST of all time. Once in a GREAT while, a person comes along who reaches a level that’s incomprehensible to the masses. They have NO clue HOW he does it. In fact, he or she makes it look easy. But he’s literally leaps and bounds above the rest. No contest, game over.
EVERY profession has its Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, and Babe Ruth. You just never hear about the World’s GREATEST Accountant, Doctor or Plumber. But he or she’s out there. They just don’t receive the press or attention. But they’re there. They know who they are, and their associates and competitors know who they are.
And in sales, we’ve seen a few individuals perform at this level.
And let me tell you, it’s unreal.
These are the sales people who ALWAYS finish number one. They usually out-produce their associates by a factor of five to ten- every day and week.
They’re machines. They’re LETHAL Black-Belt Sales People.
