Fear Pushes, Vision Pulls By: Mike Brooks | - This saying really resonated with me the first time I heard it. At that time I was selling over the phone, and I knew all about being driven by fear.

I was afraid to cold call because no one seemed interested in what I was selling.
The Gratitude List By: Mike Brooks | - Years ago I was taught a tool that helps me whenever business or life isn't going my way.
