Stand Up!
I had quite the epiphany a few weeks ago. I was getting less and less motivated as the day went on. I spend the majority of the day on the phone and I found by about 2pm, I may as well have called it quits for the day. Everytime the phone rang I would get more and more resentful, which is a terrible thing since I, more or less, make money on every phone call I take (not really, its more of a numbers game, but you get the idea). I wanted to find a way to stay on my game all day and make every minute count. Then I remembered a line in the movie ‘Boiler Room’ when Ben Affleck says “stand up, move around, motion creates emotion”; he is in reference to making sales calls in this scene. So I decided to put it to the test. I banned myself from sitting for a good 2 or 3 hours one afternoon and my productivity went through the roof! Everyday since then I have blocked off 2.5 hours in the morning and 2.5 hours in the afternoon to stand up, dial, and smile! I have had the most productive few weeks than I have had in a while!
