Selling
Like acting, sales works best when hidden –Peter Thiel
Menarik, sudah lama tidak menulis tentang sales (termasuk turunannya selling, jualan). Hari ini mulai lagi mengkonsep mengenai jualan.

Similar with “There is no path to greatness without great suffering”
The discipline of suffering, of great suffering- do you not know that only this discipline has created all enhancements of man so far? That tension of the soul in unhappiness which cultivates its strength, its shudders face to face with great ruin, its inventiveness and courage in enduring, preserving, interpreting, and exploiting suffering, and whatever has been granted to it of profundity, secret, mask, spirit, cunning, greatness- was it not granted to it through suffering, through the discipline of great suffering?

To Nietzsche, suffering provides the only test by which a person’s worth can be determined. In other words, the person who can endure the greatest suffering is the greatest of men.

Pelari yang kuat tidak hanya ditentukan dari otot kaki, tapi juga jari kaki atau sesederhana lecet pada telapak kaki. Kita tidak bisa memaksakan diri, apalagi organisasi untuk berlari sama seperti orang lain berlari. Don’t take it personally.
