Distractions
For more than fifty years, Og Mandino’s The Greatest Salesman in the World has inspired millions with timeless lessons on persistence, discipline, and faith. But today’s salespeople face a new enemy Mandino never had to fight: distraction.
In Distractions: The Salesperson’s Guide to Staying Focused and Closing the Deal, Michael Cesena — a top-performing finance manager and sales trainer — delivers a modern blueprint for thriving in one of the toughest, noisiest business environments ever.
With more than a decade on the showroom floor and in the finance office, Cesena knows exactly what derails salespeople: jealousy of coworkers, endless phone notifications, gossip, ego, and the everyday noise that kills momentum. Distractions is not theory — it’s a practical, no-fluff playbook built from real-world experience in the highest-volume dealerships in the country.
Where Mandino offered philosophy, Cesena offers fire: direct stories, sharp lessons, and strategies you can use today to cut the noise, sharpen your focus, and close more deals.
If you’ve ever lost a sale because your head wasn’t in the game, this book will get you back on track. Short enough to read in a single sitting, powerful enough to change the way you work forever — Distractions is the modern classic every salesperson needs.
No fluff. Just fire.
