Caring about people

 Hey Michael, 

Hope you are doing well. 

Today my branch manager Dajana asked me about XS Naranja as I always have that during lunch time. I told her about the XS and 15 cals and great taste and then gave her a sample. I'll meet her tomorrow and then she'll tell me whether she liked it or loved it. 😁 

What else?

Today, I had a short assessment at work about the 'Discovery stage'. As you know that in the sales process it is Introduction, Discovery, Recommendation, and Follow-up. Anyways, mine didn't go so well. In fact, it was terrible. I could blame my lack of preparation but still there were some basic things I missed so I felt miserable throughout the day because of that. 

I asked someone a question about their work. They tell me that work as an Engineer and are very stressed about their job. Now, obviously, I could ask - what makes your job so stressful?, etc. but I completely blanked out and went to the next topic. 

Same thing happened when I tried to spark a conversation with a person at Walmart. I was in the section where there's a whole bunch of moisturizers and I commented that hey, there's so many choices now. The other fellow smiled and jokingly said, yes there should be only 2. Then, I said maybe A and B. (followed by forced laughter). He kept looking at the moisturizers and I thought so hard to follow up in a conversation and then just left. 

I just feel so bad about this and can't stop my brain playing the tape constantly. 

Am I a bad person who does not care about people? Am I selfish and approach people with my own agenda?


What will Michael say?

Suck it up and move??
