People Don’t Rise To The Occasion; They Rise To The Level Of Their Training

Sales Tip #503 From The Sales Doctor
People Don’t Rise To The Occasion; They Rise To The Level Of Their Training
When I saw this quote I immediately thought about Captain Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger, the pilot that safely landed his disabled plane in the Hudson River. Sully says that his training prepared him for that unfortunate situation.
He didn’t rise to the occasion; he rose to the level of his training.
How about you? Preparation & practice provides peak performance!
