You require no more to assure your success.
[Sidenote: Selling the Truth About Your Best Self] Every individual has distinct characteristics, and is capable of doing particular things, of which he may be genuinely proud if he fully develops and uses his personal qualifications. _When all the truth about his best possible self is skillfully made known to others_, chances for success are certain to be opened to the ambitious man. If he lacks the salesmanship key, the doors of opportunity may always remain closed, however well he deserves to be welcomed. _You_ possess "goods of sale" that have real _quality_, that are _durable_, that will render _service_ and afford pleasurable satisfaction to others. _Your_ goods can be sold as _surely_ as quality phonographs, durable automobile tires, serviceable clothes, or pleasing books. Maybe you can "deliver the goods" with smiles, or hearty tones, or ready acts of kindness. Any one can easily be friendly. But have you developed _all your ability_ to smile genuinely? Have you cultivated the hearty tone of real kindness so that now it is _unnatural_ for you ever to speak in any other way? Do you perform friendly acts of consideration for others on _every_ occasion, as second nature? If your honest answers to such questions must be negative, you are not a good salesman of your best self all the time. [Sidenote: Your Salable Qualities] |
