I Can't Believe This is Happening to Me!

August 21 2015

ixact cant believe happeningEver have one of those weeks where "the sky is falling" and nothing seems to go right? Sometimes, no matter what you do, the chips don't fall your way. That hot new listing you were hoping for signs up with a competitor, your best buyer lead decides to put things off for six months, even your car turns against you and breaks down on the way to work!

Bill McDermott is the CEO of SAP, the world's business software leader (291,000 customers). He presents himself as a very inspirational leader who understands the necessity for mental toughness. In a recent interview, he shared some very insightful wisdom:

Mr. McDermott makes a lot of sense. He went on to say that you must always "Stay with your big purpose."

The main thing is to stay motivated.
