One of the great challenges in selling is keeping motivated.

Many top salespeople use motivational books and tapes to keep themselves in the right attitude for success.  However, I believe that motivational videos are  more effective because they communicate through both your eyes and your ears.

Here are the six best motivational videos that were posted on the Internet over the past year.  Watch all six and I guarantee that you’ll be massively more motivated to succeed than you were before you started watching.

REQUEST: After you’ve watched the six videos, be sure to click on the final link of this post.
