The key to success isn’t intelligence. It’s sales. If you can get uncomfortable and put yourself out there you’re half way there. If you can be compelling and attract others to your way of thinking you’ll get rich and live happy. LIFE is all about sales.

A football team will spend thousands of hours reviewing game tape to improve execution. But very few salespeople have ever reviewed a single one of their calls to see where they could have improved. Serious alpha there if you're willing to hone your craft.

You need to stand out to win. If you sell a commodity or work in a company with multiple sellers, it’s important to differentiate yourself. Have a unique perspective on the product, industry, or problem you’re solving. Without this, you’ll fail.

The “why should you trust me” part of sales is the hardest part of sales. Because you can’t answer it directly. You have to answer it indirectly and give the buyer the answer they find for themselves. And there are thousands of nuanced ways to make or break the trust.
