Business is booming
Deadlines are looming
The thrill of the sale
The fear I could fail
Trade-offs for cash
To save up that stash
A time for all things
The season it brings
An influx of leads (all came)
Crashing with speed
Workload’s increased
There’s famines and feasts
So go! Start to run.
Go get all your work done.
At the end of the day
It’s all for the pay

“Be as candid about your questions as you need to be;
life is full of them on one subject or another.”
-Jeffrey R. Holland
…
Just admit the dissonance
Between the truth and narrative
It’s hardly ever comfortable
But say it, and it’s tolerable
…
Some things cannot be reconciled
At least not by the earthly mind
The answers don’t come easily
There’s still a chance to find some peace
…
All the ways your heart’s involved
All the puzzles you can’t solve
Save questions for another day
The soul can simply need a break
…
A worldview that’s been challenged
A hope that lies in balance
A crisis of the faith that you
Can’t explain away
…
Truth somehow will still endure
Even when you’re just not sure
Hold fast and stand your ground of the
Truth that you once found
…
Not saying do not question
Or close your eyes to reason
No perfect, tight solution (imperfect)
Peace amidst confusion

The sale is imperceptible
The close is undetectable
If value’s indispensable
It all will be so natural
Just lead them down the funnel
Just guide them down the channel
Avoid the use of pressure
(That helps exactly never)
Confident, assertive
Run from being coercive
Always be supportive

I struggle in the small things
They seem so hard for me
All the things that seem to come to
Others naturally
I’m challenged by the mundane
There’s fear, anxiety
The smallest undertaking seems a
Monumental feat
I’m overwhelmed by details
It all just gets to me
Like raising kids and just keeping
My stupid kitchen clean
…
I struggle in the small things
There’s not much more to say
Best I can do is keep on truckin’
Going day by day

When selling a service,
There’s no debt to eat
When selling a service,
No inventory
When selling a service
There’s almost no risk
When selling a service
The startup is quick
When selling a service
It’s all what you do
When selling a service
The product is YOU!
I don’t hate the tangibles
They don’t come for free
But selling a service is
What works for me 🙂

“Cry unto him over the crops of your fields, that ye may prosper in them.
Cry over the flocks of your fields, that they may increase.”
-Alma 34:24-25
Pray for your business
Pray for your scores
Pray for encounters to
Open up doors
Pray for your clients
Those that you serve
Pray to deliver the
Things they deserve
Pray in successes
Pray as your grow
Pray to remember from
Whom blessings flow
Pray in your failures
The lowest of lows
Pray to learn something
Then let the rest go
Pray for your business
Your work or career
Pray, get to WORK, and then
Good things appear
“The Lord would want you to be successful. He would.”
-President Gordon B. Hinckley

A paradox of peace
The method employed
The more you abide (the more)
“Business” destroyed
Assertive and confident
Not bossy, but bold
(And yes, you belong there
Despite what you’ve been told)
NEVER be violent
Always be kind
Trust precedes chances to
Change someone’s mind
The more that you’re “normal”
The more people talk
Miracles happen there
On the sidewalk
