If you wanna conquer your confidence when it comes to selling your stuff, there’s no need to turn to the experts.

Find a first grader instead.

Kids can teach us an awful lot about how to ignore what other people might think of us. They intuitively understand that if you don’t ask, you won’t get it.

And if they’re anything like my firstborn daughter, they’ll surprise you by how easily they take to selling their own stuff.

Where there’s a will, there’s a way.

But in my experience, where there’s a will, there’s a way to mess things up far worse than you ever thought possible.

If you thought you screwed anything up at work in the past few months, think again. (I really nailed it this time, too.)
