One of my regular stops each week, is to the Post Office.

One day, after traveling the same route I had been traveling for years, I had a "light bulb moment".

I realized that the route I was traveling was a bit crazy and actually took longer.

Feeling like an idiot, I had to ask myself why I would travel a route that wasn't efficient.

Then it hit me . . .

When I first started going to the Post Office I would often stop at the bank first. So that's how I initially created that route but;

Over the years I started to do my banking online and I never adapted to that change. I simply kept doing what I had always done;

Long after it made sense for me to do it that way!

To make matters worse, the Post Office moved two blocks over and the change was so subtle that I never adapted.

Habits are a real bitch because oftentimes we forget to challenge their relevance!

This week we're going to change that.

I'm going to show you 5 ways to challenge your prospecting habits and as a bonus;

Show you how you can seriously develop your phone chops!

So go ahead and give this FREE audio sales lesson a listen. I triple dog dare ya!
