Liz....I wonder if sales is really your thing? I know lots of brilliant people who just aren't in love with sales....And, for those people...there is no si n or criticism in that. It is just that it isn't their particular strong suit. Nothing more than that.
And, I know some successful sales people who really can't do much of anything else....
Apparently...at least from what I have seen...sales super stars are born...not made. Ya either got it or not....at baseline....
I predict that you will use your current education and skills in another area that you really shine in....and, you will look back and be glad for this temporary bump in the road....
This happens to the best of us....
