Sales energy is the most important part of your sales (and marketing!) strategy. Any strategy in the world is going to work if your energy is aligned. No strategy in the world will work if your energy is not aligned.

America has long been facing a healthcare crisis. The loss of a job can mean the difference between having superior healthcare coverage for you and your family and having none. But millions of Americans don’t benefit from employer-sponsored healthcare and struggle to receive even the most basic care. Yet no one can afford to take access to high-quality healthcare for granted. No one knows what tomorrow will bring. In many other countries, the relative lack of affordable and accessible health care is even more profound. The World Health Organization notes a shortage of millions of medical providers worldwide.

According to data published by the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC), America could face a shortage of between 54,100 and 139,000 physicians by the year 2033. Sadly, this alarming number does not even refle…

The average adult takes around 15 breaths every minute. That’s a whopping 21,600 breaths every day. Each inhale brings in precious oxygen to nourish our cells. But it can also bring in a slew of toxic chemicals commonly found in the air we breathe.

Industrial manufacturing, the burning of fossil fuels, raging wildfires, car emissions, and even household products have tainted the air with hundreds, if not thousands, of tiny toxic particles.

In fact, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has classified over 180 different air pollutants as significant hazards to human health (1). Many of these air pollutants are suspected by the American Lung Association to increase the risk of cancer, birth defects, bring about cardiovascular harm, and even reduce fertility (2).

More than 4 in 10 Americans are…

And finally, after months of hard work, he gets to enjoy the results.

Your speaking gig business works the same way, and if you take a page from the farmer’s playbook, you’ll soon be reaping the rewards, too.
