Eye of the Tiger

Datemaandag, juli 30, 2007 at 10:29PM | Comment3 Comments

Neem een kijkje in de wereld van Tiger Woods: lees zijn onderstaande quotes en verbeeld je dat de golfsport een analogie is voor het verkoopvak. Ik neem daarna de vrijheid je een persoonlijke vraag te stellen...

  • Amazing thing is, I love golf more than ever.
  • Because you never lose that - that fun, that passion to compete and live a dream.
  • I could never deal with the fact that, as hard as I've prepared, as hard as I concentrate and as hard as I play, I played my best and it's not good enough any more.
  • I get to play golf for a living. What more can you ask for - getting paid for doing what you love.
  • I love to play golf, and that's my arena. And you can characterize it and describe it however you want, but I have a love and a passion for getting that ball in the hole and beating those guys.
  • I mean, as an athlete, as a competitor, you have to have that belief in yourself.
  • I'm aware if I'm playing at my best I'm tough to beat. And I enjoy that.
  • My main focus is on my game.
  • The only thing you can do is take a learning experience from it, positives and negatives, and apply them to the future.
  • Well, I enjoy creating. I enjoy creating shots.
  • No matter how good you get, you can always get better and that's the exciting part.
  • You should live your own life and live up to your own expectations, and those are the only things I really care about.

Wat zijn jouw meest karakteristieke quotes over je rol in de 'verkoopsport'?

Zijn die congruent met je prestaties?

Kijk naar een videofragment waarin Tiger Woods een onwaarschijnlijke birdie maakt op de 16e hole van het Masters in 2005 (2:17 minuten).

Hoi Arno,

Mooie titel voor een post ;-)
Ik gebruik dezelfde term, maar vanuit een andere invalshoek:

Hoi Rikkert,

Ik heb je artikel gelezen.
Bedoel je http://www.salesiseenvak.nl/eye-of-the-tiger/?

In dat geval hebben we het volgens mij over hetzelfde: winnen.
Iets wat Tiger in zijn genen lijkt te hebben.

Thanks!
