Haaaaaaaaaaaylp!!!!!

It's Tuesday at 1 p:m and I am hating the idea of cold calling....I just dont want to do it. My wife is home and I would rather spend time with her and even when she suggests that I have work to do I want to do everything BUT cold call.

Today was supposed to be 10 cold calls, to make up for yesterdays. But I remember from yesterday that I was keeping myself at work in the office doing everything but cold calling and then thought I would do it today.....and then today I was thinking that I would just piss the day away and make 15 tomorrow...maybe 20 as an added bonus to make up for today.

I really have to get control of this procrastination, and fast, or this will be the undoing of my job performance and ultimately my current job. What I really want is a nice middle management job that has no cold calling but that is a dream right now and focusing on the serious problem at had is essential.

I mean I was doing so well......but I want cold calling.....it's only Tuesday at 1p.m. so I could go out and cold call but I know I wont. I will probably just call my client list on the phone since cold calling on the phone is easier to do and easier to handle and easier to do volume in a short span of time.

So perhaps if my goal is to call each om my current call list, which I have to do anyways, I will get good work done, work that does have to be done and stay home today....it still doesnt change the fact that I hate cold calling in person.

I had this talk with myself a week or so ago and came to the conclusion that I could still cold call all of the names I have in my establishment list and still be successful without having to cold call face to face. If I do avoid cold calling door to door then I had better, at the very least, follow up on this idea of calling everyone on my list.

This is not good though as I am expected to cold call in person as well......the only chance I have of surviving is if I am successful with my call. The goal of which will be to get an appointment to begin the sales cycle. Also I need to get the email address......always ask for an email address since its a good sytem and teh boss gets a copy of my activity which makes him happy.

I am also going to have a heart to heart with Ben about person to person cold calling vs. on the phone.......I'll also call on Dave Grady in Thunder Bay who is half my age and way way way more successful at this than I am.
