Today was an extremely challenging day regarding work. This past weekend we had a great time visiting with our friends and doing our basic chores around the house that I neglected to pre-plan work for this next week. I'm having such a challenging time staying motivated selling Protopic but more so with Amevive. This all does lead into my day, trust me.
As I wake up around 5:00 am, I begin to wonder, where am I working today? I eventually drag myself out of bed to look at my daytimer. (Yes, I'm still utilizing paper because with the size of my territory its easier to keep things straight as opposed to fully utilizing my PDA.) I see that I do need to look at February and not only that but I realize I have a lunch in Champain, IL at 11:30 am with my number one target who prescribes my main competing medication.
I order food for delivery by 6:30 am and because I'm taking care of work stuff, I get a much later start for the day. Logan missed his bus because of me so I take him to school and continue to drive in the FOG!
Let me tell you the fog was from the Chicago western suburbs past Champaign, IL. There were times when I literally could not see more than 10' in front of my car. People were driving with their hazard lights on, some were driving very slow and some were driving like idiots. It took me over three hours to get from Champaign to Oswego which normally takes 2.5 hrs at the most.
As I write the fog has not lifted. I just hope tomorrow will be a better day because driving in this was horrible!
So my luncheon with Dr. Neitzel was ok, for every objection he threw out, I responded with an appropriate answer. As I am trying to provide an alternative for his psoriasis patients, he has an objection for everything. One would like to think he is in the buying stage but just hasn't committed. I just want to hit my head on a brick wall!
As for Protopic, I love this product as it has positively affected so many people and changed their lives! The label change has made the last several years so challenging to stay positive and continue to promote it. All in all, I need some motivation or a good vacation.
Maybe this has been a longer winter than I realize and we've just had too, too many gray days. I wonder if I'm not affected with SAD, I need to read up on that. Maybe I need some happy pills! :)
