You can find the full transcript of today’s episode at crazybigdreams.biz/60.
I love serving leaders in direct sales because it’s such a unique role. I chose you because I find the sacrifice and opportunity that you navigate remarkable. Opportunity is endless. The perks are huge for you and your family.
The uniqueness of your role can also come with challenges. Working from home, working from home with kids, open parameters on your time, buckling down to do the work when you wear so many hats, the ups and downs of compensation, and how you lead… just to name a few.
Being The Best Leader For Your Direct Sales Team
So what does the best version of you look and feel like as you navigate this unique success journey as a direct sales leader?
Let’s explore this today by looking at your health and fitness! Yes, your health and fitness. Now, some of you work directly in health and fitness for your direct sales business. I love it!
When Your Direct Sales Focus Is On Health And Fitness
It doesn’t mean that you don’t have your own personal challenges around health and fitness. I know! Sometimes when you work closely with this it can highlight different challenges.
Maybe you feel pressure at times to look, eat, dress, or live a certain way because of your business focus.
Maybe an injury or big life stressor has made it difficult for you to be at what you feel others expect for your health and fitness.
There are so many layers to this even when your business focus is on health and fitness.
I get it. My corporate background for over a decade was in the fitness industry. And my educational background also includes a degree in Exercise Science. And I still teach and practice yoga.
Health and fitness have always been a personal passion of mine and always will be.
So I’m coming to you with that breadth of experience and personal interest.
For some of you, your direct sales business has nothing at all to do with health and fitness. That’s a.o.k. Stick around.
The Benefits Of A Health And Fitness Focus For Your Direct Sales Success Journey
Either way, I would argue that living as your best self, regardless of your business focus, includes attention to your personal health and fitness.
There is a positive side effect that spills over into every area of your life when your health and fitness are closer to their best. Your relationships, your energy, your productivity, your sleep, more even moods, and fewer sick days, are just a few of the key areas that are positively influenced by your focus on health and fitness.
Let’s check in with how you feel about it today. We’ll rate health and fitness separately.
By health I’m referring to things like, are you avoiding the doctor? Have you put off your mammogram? Colonoscopy? Lab Work? Dental Check-up? Is your blood pressure, thyroid, cholesterol, and blood sugar in check? Do you know if they’re in check? How are you sleeping?
So, on a scale of 1 to 10 are you your best self in regard to your health? 10 is high, I am living as my best self with my health. 1 is low, my health has taken a back seat and there are areas that could be so much better.
Now let’s rate your fitness. Fitness is basically strength, muscular strength, muscular endurance, flexibility, cardiovascular fitness, and core strength. Are you active? Do you move in some way? Walk, run, bike, swim. Do you practice yoga or Pilates? Are you stretching? Are you living your best life when it comes to your fitness?
It’s important to check in with your personal health and fitness when considering the best version of you. The positive side effects to every other area of your life are significant. Your role as a direct sales leader can be enhanced when you take care of your personal health and your level of fitness.
