Consider the Possibilities
Ever now and again, I make a post just to make us think and call it “Today’s One Minute Wisdom” because that is about all the time it takes to read. As we approach the 4th quarter–our busiest season–here is something to think about.
1. Never reject an idea because it is impossible.
2. Never reject an idea because you won’t get credit.
3. Never reject a possibility because you see something wrong with it. Separate the problems from the possibilities.
4. Never reject an idea because it’s not your way of doing things.
5. Never reject an idea because it will create conflict. Attempt to do something great and fail rather than attempting to do nothing and succeed.
6. Never reject a possibility because you don’t want to let go of your frustrations.
7. Never reject a possibility because your mind is already made up.
8. Never reject an idea because you don’t have the money, the manpower, muscle or time to achieve it.
9. Never reject an idea because it is sure to succeed.
10. Never reject a possibility because you’ve rejected all hope.

Hi Joyce,
I stumbled upon your blog a few months ago and have been faithfully reading it since then. My name is Sandy, but I usually go by ‘GiftRepSandy’ as I am a semi-retired independent sales rep to the gift industry.
Since I have ’semi-retired’ (which means I am still a sales rep, but am moving more and more of my business on line to avoid the non-stop traveling!!), I have started a couple blogs, Selling to Gift Shops (www.sellingtogiftshops.com) being the one that relates to your blog and posts.
Anyway, I am expanding my blog to include some resources such as e-books, on-line trainings etc. I would love to network with you — although I am not sure what that would look like!
For starters, I will add you to My Favorite Links on the blog and go from there.
Feel free to ‘visit’ me and let me know what you think!
PS. Your giftretailersnetwork@yahoo.com listed on your contact page is filing to take emails!
Best,
Sandy Dell
