It is an amazing thing to have the ability to choose things, whether that is the college you attend, the people you spend time with, or small things like what you&#8217;re having for lunch that day. There are a lot of places in the world where choices in life are either limited or non-existent. It is such a blessing to live in America and be pursuing education at a collegiate level, primarily what this gives us is choices. I challenge you to choose to do what you love, and in sales to sell what you are passionate about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I think that finding and pursuing what you love can be a difficult thing, especially in the context of business we have a natural tendency to err on the side of making money rather than genuinely supporting and enjoying the brand or company we work for. It can be a hard line to draw between being practical and simply taking the easiest route. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With all the choices that are afforded to us it can be hard to be decisive, it&#8217;s even harder to check our hearts along the way as we try to find personal fulfillment but also honor God with our lives. It&#8217;s definitely not easy to sort through all the factors that go into choosing a job, setting high standards may force us to wait or to take a lesser paying job that we believe in more. It is worth the wait, believe me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You will sell something that you love and support much more easily than something that you don&#8217;t care about, even if it makes you more money on the sale. This is a radical principle to the world at times because of how much our culture values money and success. Ultimately nothing of this world will last anyway so pursue the Lord&#8217;s call in your life at all costs. Accept a job selling something that honors the Lord before you would accept a job selling something that doesn&#8217;t make a positive impact on the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" data-src=\"http:\/\/gccwebsites.com\/startupsales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/cross.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6063 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/gccwebsites.com\/startupsales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/cross.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gccwebsites.com\/startupsales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/cross-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gccwebsites.com\/startupsales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/cross-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gccwebsites.com\/startupsales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/cross-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gccwebsites.com\/startupsales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/cross-624x624.jpg 624w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/1024;\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the most amazing things about life are the choices that we get to make.
