Failure will never overtake you if your determination to succeed is strong enough. ~ Og Mandino

One of the greatest pieces of business advice is to know when to sacrifice something and when not to.

The actions you take even outside your business plan might go a long way to convince anyone that you are capable of being successful. ~ Og Mandino

“The first five scrolls read by Hafid show the importance of time and the value of belief. It explains why you must always make the best of the time you have and value yourself in all aspects of your life.

The first five scrolls are: “Today I begin a new life.”

This scroll tells the beauty of starting anew. It suggests a total reevaluation of your past and present, and how you want it to affect your future. Create a roadmap for yourself and apply it to achieve the goals you set for yourself, including sales goals.”

You must leave the past behind you and look towards the future. It’s never too late to start planning for a better future. ~ Og Mandino

Your primary focus should be on achieving your goals and following the plans laid before you. You must also enforce good habits in your life by constantly practicing on being a better person.

“I will greet this day with love in my heart.”

This scroll contains the key to success in sales and other aspects of your life. Wake up every day with love in your heart and happiness in your soul. Eliminate hate from your mind and treat everyone with respect. Let happiness lead each day you live and embrace the concept of love in all areas of your life. Avoid discrimination of any kind and make sure your heart is open and pure towards everyone.

Let your heart be the light that guides your day and the experience that guides your night. See any bad situation as an experience, and you’ll find it very easy to overcome any obstacle. ~ Og Mandino

“I will persist until I succeed.”

This scroll talks about the things you want in life. It explains that the success you seek will come at the end of your efforts, not at the beginning. Patience is a virtue that must be adopted by every salesman. A great salesman is never interested in quitting because he’s not scared to fail.

Failure is a stepping stone; you must see every situation as a unique experience. ~ Og Mandino

Take things one step at a time and celebrate your achievements no matter how small.

“I am nature’s greatest miracle.”

This scroll explains that you are special and unique in your way. It teaches you to be proud of who you are instead of feeling inferior about yourself. Don’t be scared to show yourself to the world. You’re a miracle that nature is lucky to have. See yourself as the world’s greatest salesman, and let nobody tell you otherwise.

You’re responsible for the level of confidence you exude. Never cower in fear because you’re extraordinary. ~ Og Mandino

“I will live this day as if it is my last.”

The scroll marked V teaches the importance of time. Start whatever you want to do today because time won’t wait for you. Don’t waste your time dwelling on the past because it’s only going to slow you down.

Time is a priceless gift, and you must utilize every minute you have. Tomorrow is never guaranteed, which is why you need to use your today very well. ~ Og Mandino

Today I will be master of my emotions.”

Your emotions determine how you approach a new day. Your mood determines how happy or unhappy you are — that’s why you must learn to control your emotions. To control your emotions, however, you need to master them. Learn what triggers your mood and learn to control how you react. You can develop mantras like: “If I feel depressed, I will sing.” “If I feel sad, I will laugh.” “If I feel complacent, I will remember my competition.”

Never let your emotions control the better part of you because your emotions can make or break you.

“I will laugh at the world.”

Don’t take life too seriously by thinking about the problems you have. If you can’t do anything about a situation, it’s best not to worry about it. ~ Og Mandino

Your problems won’t last forever as long as you’re determined. Keep a healthy mind, have fun, and enjoy your life as you work towards success.

“Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.”

You have limitless potential, and the sky is only the starting point if you’re dedicated towards your sales. Spread your tentacles all over the world and add value to yourself and your sales. Let people know that what you offer is of premium quality and content. This is not to say you should be proud — be humble and see everyone as someone with value.

“I will act now.”

Avoid procrastination and act now. Don’t defer your dreams by being inactive.

Having a plan is not enough: You must take action to act out the plan lest you waste your time. ~ Og Mandino

Seize upon the moment and make the best use of it. Your life is a reflection of your actions or inaction. Don’t waste precious time sitting idle without acting out your plans.

“I will pray for guidance.”

Above all, never forget to pray. Praying is an act of piety that you must embrace, whether you’re religious or not. It doesn’t matter what you believe in; praying is essential for guidance. Pray for guidance and added knowledge. Find peace in the words you say and call on God at all times.

Make the best use of every situation you find yourself. Being a great salesman is possible as long as you are committed to achieving your goals. ~ Og Mandino

There’s no limit to what you can achieve as long as you exhibit confidence and convince people through your actions that you’re capable of becoming the best. ~ Og Mandino

Never feel shame for trying and failing for he who has never failed is he who has never tried. ~ Og Mandino

Selling ideas or beliefs to people requires several principles that must not be ignored. The world’s greatest people know these principles, and they follow it very well. They know that the first step to being a successful salesman is to know what it takes to sell.

Being a great salesman requires a lot of commitment, and unless you are determined enough, you can’t be the world’s greatest salesman.

It doesn’t matter how many times you’ve failed; you must always get back up and push forward. A great salesman knows that failure is nothing but a pathway to success. A great salesman also knows that perseverance is the key to prosperity.

Og Mandino has used very popular stories in the Bible to illustrate the importance of patience, time, determination and selflessness.

This summary teaches morals and values that are essential to the growth of man and his environment, as well as the importance of spirituality and belief to the society.
