Meet Your Unhelpful Co-Worker
We all have one.
It lives in our head, never clocks out, and has an opinion on everything.
And most days, it’s whispering:
✅ “They’re not going to buy.”
✅ “Don’t call yet — you’ll sound desperate.”
✅ “It’s too slow today — nothing’s going to happen.”
That voice? It’s not looking out for you.
It’s keeping you safe, comfortable… and stuck.
Why That Voice Feels So Loud
That inner chatter is built to protect you from risk and rejection.
But in sales, playing it safe is a slow death.
Every time you listen to it, you:
Delay follow-up
Skip a walkaround
Lower your price too quickly
Avoid working the service lane
Miss an opportunity to set an appointment
Over time, this becomes your default.
And your paycheck shows it.
The Real Fix: A Plan You Actually Work
Here’s the thing:
You can’t just tell the voice to “be quiet” and expect it to listen.
The cure is consistency.
The more you work a proven daily plan, the less that voice controls you.
That’s why top performers:
Have a clear daily checklist
Work the checklist every day
Don’t leave their actions up to how they feel

Train Your Inner Voice
🛑 Catch it — Notice when the thought is negative or defeatist
🔄 Flip it — Replace it with a productive, action-driven thought
🏃 Act immediately — Don’t wait, take the next step now
📈 Track wins — Note every time you ignored the voice and it paid off
Final Thought
Mindset isn’t something you work on once and forget.
It’s daily. It’s in the moments you don’t feel like doing the work — and do it anyway.
Follow your plan every day and that inner voice gets quieter.
Ignore the plan and it runs the show.
The question is: Who’s in charge — you, or the voice?
