Work only on Mondays

Getting more in less time

How would you like to have more free time for family and friends and possibly increase your income? Most of us would give a resounding YES!!

Play along with me. Take the most amount of money you have made in your personal services sales career (or your income goal for the next 12 months) and write it down.

Now multiply that large number (I hope) by .8 (that is 80%). Now write that number down.

Here is the question. How would you like to earn that reduced amount if you could do it working only on Mondays? Most of the time when I have done this exercise with clients and in classes, every single person has indicated that they would certainly take less money if they can only work one day a week.

You can achieve this if you understand in your gut the 80/20 rule or the rule of disproportionate consequences. The trouble with most of the sales people I work with have no idea where there business really comes from.

More on the 80/20 rule later.
