I've never been good at asking for help. I'm sure that stems from all sorts of reasons that professionals in white labs coats can figure out one day. I can tell you that there have been many times in my life when I have cried out for help, and there was no one able or available. (I stop short of
saying interested.) Other times, the help I needed was just too much for mere humans to step into.
But God! He has always stepped up and into my cries for help. I learned that if I cry out to Him, He will send the help, in whatever form is needed, at just the
right time. I'm wondering if this is the right time? So I'm crying out to Him and asking Him for help. Right in front of your eyes. Here goes...
"Lord, I believe it was you who gave me the desire to radically transform the sales profession one salesperson and
one sales team and one sales leader and one business owner and one organization at a time. You know how many times I have wanted to quit, but we both know that I am not allowed to quit until you release me. So I'm asking you for help, Lord. I have this book that I am writing (reluctantly as you already know as we have discussed for years) about The Greatest Sales Question Ever Asked™. We both know where it comes from, and the impact it has had on so many. Would you send people who want to join in helping this question penetrate the Marketplace? Would you work in the hearts of others who want to join this effort? Would you identify them and work in their hearts to prepare them for this assignment? Would you send them this way? Would you have them
contact me (from wherever they are) and express their God-led desire to join this effort? Not for my glory or their glory, but for your glory... Amen!"
There, I did it... I just cried out for help! I wonder what else is on my to-do list today?
