Go for it!

Today we inspired two more people to become sponsors! I want to say that today we fought hard to save these two children. I showed up 5 minutes before my shift at 1:30pm and Sean and Mel had been fighting all morning but nothing had happened. Mel left the booth with that "bad taste," of not getting at least one sponsor after battling so hard. I totally understand that, I think every single FR at Donorworx feels the same way when you have a tough day, it is not a number, it is the fact that you really put in the effort to help change a child's life.

Sean and I set up a plan: we are not going home with a zero. I think this has become our team motto. I am impressed that we are always aiming high. Since we started the campaign our goals have been 6, 8 and even 10 sponsors! I have to admit, and I have said this before, I was not like this before starting working with Donorworx. I had many goals in my life but I found that setting up these mini daily goals was a really great way to help a team get as many sponsors as possible.

Not having a goal when you go to work is like expecting to get abs while sitting on your couch with a bag of chips in one hand and a 'diet coke' in the other. Get it? You have to aim for something and go for it. Tomorrow we want to get 8 sponsors. It will be difficult only if we make it so. We are aiming and going for it, full force.
