Summary
On Coronavirus Talk #5, I’m not going to presume to tell you that the fear of losing your health, job, house, income, or retirement account is unfounded because it is not.
This is not an empty message telling you that if you just manage your attitude everything else will work out. Though attitude is very important, attitude without direction will hurt you in this environment.
What I am going to tell you is if you want to come out of this crisis swinging, you have got to take action, now. Worry changes nothing. Action, though, changes everything.

| 0:00.0 | This is the Sales Gravy Podcast. |
| 0:04.0 | I'm Jeb Blunt, best-selling author of Fanatical Prospecting Cells EQ, |
| 0:08.0 | objections and inked, and I'm here to help you fill up your pipeline, close bigger deals, |
| 0:13.0 | and rock your commission check. |
| 0:17.0 | This is my fifth talk on the coronavirus outbreak crisis shutdown. And I'm going to spend some time talking about fear and worry. But I'm not going to presume to tell you that the fear of losing your health or your job or your house or your income or your retirement account is unfounded because it's not. This is not |
| 0:40.4 | an empty message telling you that if you just manage your attitude, everything else will work out for you. |
| 0:46.4 | There's no doubt that attitude and mindset are very important, but a great attitude without any |

| 0:57.2 | what I'm going to tell you is that if you want to come out of this crisis swinging, you've got to take action right now. |
| 1:04.6 | We're talking about on the other side of the crisis, what's going to happen when we're through this, |
| 1:09.9 | and we will get through this. |
| 1:11.6 | The reality, though, is that this crisis is unprecedented. And it is going to get worse before |
| 1:17.7 | it's going to get better. There's depressing news coming out every single day. Some people are going |
| 1:22.5 | to lose their jobs. Some people will lose their businesses. Some people are going to take pay cuts. Some people are going to lose their homes. Some people will lose their savings. Some people will have to start all over again. And some people in the midst of this crisis will thrive. And at some point in the future, our society, the world will climb out of this crisis and will recover. |
| 1:46.5 | And some people in that recovery will rise from the ashes like a phoenix. |
| 1:52.1 | These are the facts and nothing is going to change these facts. |
| 1:56.0 | But to sit around all day long, wringing your hands, watching the news, and reacting to rumors on social |
| 2:02.1 | media is a terrible existence, no matter if your fears are founded or if they're not. |
| 2:08.8 | See, worry is miserable. |
