“Stop for a few seconds and create a clear mental picture of yourself as completely relaxed, calm, positive, smiling, and in complete control of the interview.

While you are breathing deeply, continue to hold a picture of yourself as the very best salesperson you could possibly be.”

At a certain point, you can reach “the wall” and simply be unable to continue, like a battery that is run down.”
