"What is bad luck? Opinion. 

What are conflict, dispute, blame, accusation, irrelevance, and frivolity? They are all opinions, and more than that, they are opinions that lie outside of our own reasoned choice, presented as if they were good or evil.

Let a person shift their opinions only to what belongs in the field of their own choice, and I guarantee that person will have peace of mind, whatever is happening around them!"

The above was written a long time ago by Epictetus in Discourses, 3.3.18b-19 (100CE)

What opinions as a salesperson are holding you back? 

Harming you? 

Who are you blaming for your performance to date?

What is your opinion of the weather today? 

The current government policies, so and so, their religion or race?

Is our opinion based on knowledge, emotions, old habits, or unverified beliefs? 

Remember, opinions can harm you! 

Unqualified, biased, and egoistic opinions are your enemy.
