Sales Tweet #163 Ernest Seller jumps to so many conclusions his legs get sore.
 
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
That’s a metaphor. I mean – it isn’t exactly true. However, Ernest does have a strong pair of legs on him…if he jumps to many more conclusions he could become a frogman.

Sales Tweet #162 Some ancient wisdom for Success: Have bone in back, not bone in head.
 
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
Probably no ancient person ever said that. But, we will never know for sure. On the other hand, I did write “people should work at having thick skin and thin skulls”. Thick skin will help people be less influenced by the criticism of others. A thin skull will ensure important stuff gets in easier.

Sales Tweet #161 Ernest Seller is a self-made man…so his arms are long enough to pat himself on the back.
 
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
That is not to say Ernest doesn’t appreciate greatness in others. Just the other day he said he met a fellow with a terrific personality…Ernest noticed immediately this fellow had some of the amazing traits owned by Ernest himself.

Sales Tweet #160

Sales Tweet #160 Ernest Seller shoots the bull so his Boss will think he’s a hunter not a farmer.
 
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
Actually, that’s an effort a cracking a joke. Sales people are sometimes classed as hunters and farmers. Farmers have cattle. Hunters shoot things. Aw…never mind.

Sales Tweet #159 The Boss thinks Ernest Seller knows how to do one thing well - repeat mistakes.
 
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
And, would you believe it…the Boss put that into one of Ernest’s performance reviews. When the Human Resource Department saw it they shook their heads.

Sales Tweet #158

Sales Tweet #158 Ancient advice: better to have broad mind than long face.
 
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
Body language is a powerful source of communication. While none of us wants to be robotic or unnatural, there are times when we should refrain from wearing our feelings on our faces.
