Studies have proven that attitude is one of the traits that separate
average sales people from their highly-successful colleagues. I have
to believe that it's true in life in general, not just sales. Think
about the happiest, most successful people you know. How do you
usually find them? Are they depressed, negative, or even apathetic? I
doubt it. They're probably upbeat, smiling, and positive about life.
Why not take the same positive interested attitude you have toward
your hobbies and transfer your passion to your ability to sell
yourself, your ideas, or the end results of your hobby?
Instead of turning your selling job into a hobby, why not take the
hobby you love so much and figure out how to market it or yourself?
I'm not saying this change will make you a millionaire, but money
isn't the only measure of success. If you could support yourself
comfortably on the earnings from your hobby, I would deem you as
having a successful life.
Think about it! You already have the built-in enthusiasm, excitement,
and knowledge of your hobby. Now all you need to do is show others why
they need to feel the same way. If you do a little research, you'll
find that many successful business people started out by selling their
hobbies. Determine what you love to do, and then figure out a way to
get paid for it. What could be better?
