Sales mind…

"Work is born in us. We take to it kindly or unkindly. The terms may be simple or harsh, but the contract is binding."

Studs Terkel (1912–2008)
American writer, journalist, broadcaster
Pulitzer Prize winner

Everything starts with our mind-set toward our work – to how we say. We should be sure to guard and nurture that mind-set.

Terkel’s bestselling book Working was published 37 years ago as an oral history of "people talking about what they do all day and how they feel about what they do".

Outside the money hours, delight in 9 minutes of audio from NPR (you can download it for a run too) – the tale around the book and actual recordings from a few of Terkel’s interviews for the book. Particularly heartwarming:: Delores the waitress (at minute 2), Terry the newspaper boy (at minute 3.5) and Therese "just a housewife" (at minute 7).
