At the Sales 2.0 Conference in Boston on Monday, Heartland Payment Systems CEO and Chairman Bob Carr (on the left) said that there is no stress.
Well, okay, maybe if a tiger is chasing you you should be stressed.
But if you have 150 emails to open…
or your stock price declines by 90% (as his did a few years ago)…
or your lake house…
gets hit by lightning and burns to the ground (as his did a couple weeks ago)…
those should not be causes for stress. You just need to deal with them, and stressing won’t help you read the emails…
or do the work to rebuild your stock value…
and you could even donate the insurance from your lake house to help put students through college (as he did.)
So chill. What happens to us may not always be in our control, but how we deal with it is.
