bissett bullet: to serve is glorious

today’s bissett bullet: “you have significant worth to those who believe in you. show them why they should.”

by martin bissett

st. nicholas was a rich man who gifted money to those in greater need. he morphed into santa claus and became legend as his story was told over time, because of his incomparable achievements and his altruistic nature of service to others.

now, i’m not suggesting for a moment that you start giving money away. simply bear in mind that a disposition to serve trumps a desire to sell in terms of how attractive your proposition is to potential clients.

today’s to-do:

think about how you treat your clients. as cash cows, or as those for whom you make dreams come true and your fees come as a result? if you can honestly say the latter, they will believe in your worth.

i have a few ideas—some might seem unconventional, but we must get creative to avoid the same burnout cycles. hear me out, in no particular order: read more →
