Selling AIN'T easy right now

In sales, of course you have ups and downs, but GOSH, lately, it has been brutal. This economy is making everyone so scared of what lies around the corner, and they FLAT, just don't want to buy. My confidence level has really taken a turn downward, as the enemy keeps telling me that I cannot sell...That I'm a failure. I feel like I'm working harder than I ever have, but cannot get anything accomplished. Well, that's all for now..I'm going to keep trucking along, and praying for the guidance I need to succeed...
