You’re Not Lazy, You’re Probably Burnt Out from Performing All the Time
Push, push, push. That’s what we do in sales.
Run all over. Pack an already jammed schedule.
Make another call. Send another email. Squeeze in another lunch.
And then one day, you wake up with zero motivation to do anything on the list.
What most people don’t realize is that salespeople are always on.
Every day, we bring energy and presence because we’re not just selling a product; we're selling a way of life. We’re selling trust. Confidence. Ourselves.
And if we’re even just a little off, it can cost us the opportunity or the deal.
Have you ever finished your day and thought,
“I cannot talk to one more person.”
I used to hate admitting when I needed a break.
It felt like: Why can’t I keep pushing through?
But now I realize stepping away for a reset is the best thing I can do.
Because when I come back, my energy isn’t forced. It’s authentically me.
That’s not laziness. That’s performance fatigue.
You’ve probably been in overdrive too many days in a row without giving anything back to yourself.
Recognize it. Take the break.
Even better if you can book a trip or a fun getaway for a few days.
And then live to sell another day.
