Crafted from the pen of George RR Martin, Game of Thrones was a sensation in itself. This series, telecasted from 2011 to 2019, was a saga that captured our attention for eight years. As a result, each character in the series is extremely familiar to most of us who have watched the show. The duration of show, which ran for eight seasons with a whopping number of 73 episodes, has made sure to include and involve each one of its viewers individually into the show. Unlike a three-hour film where characters progress and the story ends before we grow a strong attachment to them, the characters in Game of Thrones had ample time to grow on us. That’s how this question began to haunt me. Which character traits of Daenerys Targaryen can help you become a successful direct distributor or seller? Well, let’s find out.
If one asks whether direct selling and Game of thrones have anything to do with each other, one cannot give a definite yes or no. While Game of Thrones and Direct selling share certain aspects, they are somewhat different. Well, for instance, both of them are a kind of war, right? While direct selling goes into war for sales, the Game of thrones characters went into war for the Iron throne.
But, we usually don’t have much physical violence in direct selling like Game of thrones. But there is something both Game of Thrones and direct selling equally possess. Strong, resourceful and powerful leaders. So, today let’s examine the character traits of one of the most powerful leaders in Game of Thrones, Daenerys Targaryen and understand which among them we should pursue to become a successful direct distributor.
Let’s start with one of the greatest and most powerful leaders of Game of Thrones, Daenerys Targaryen. Daenerys would be one of the characters that suffered endless torment throughout the series. Even after being born as a princess, as the only daughter of King Aerys II Targaryen and Queen Rhaella, she had to pave her way through hell to find her place, to be the powerful leader she was.
At the beginning of the series, one can see a timid Daenerys who was “sold like a broodmare” to Drogo, the chieftain of Dothraki Khalasar. But as the story progresses, one can see Daenerys gathering courage and power, steadily rising as a phenomenal leader. Do you know the secret behind her success and ascent as a leader? She states that
“I’ve been chained and betrayed, raped and defiled. Do you know what kept me standing through all those years in exile? Faith. Not in any gods. Not in myths and legends. In myself. In Daenerys Targaryen.”
Yes, the personal trait every direct distributor should learn from Daenerys is her self-confidence. Even after meeting with continuous misfortunes and dead ends, she never gave up. She persisted by finding a way through every misfortune that presented before her. One can see that, after gaining self-confidence and finding the power she can wield, Daenerys never allowed anyone to belittle her.
She had immense confidence in her abilities and never lost sight of her ultimate goal and purpose in life, “I was born to rule the Seven Kingdoms, and I will.” One can state that her eternal devotion, determination towards her goal, and conviction in her abilities are two elements that lead her to success. Similarly, in the world of direct selling, every direct distributor should have an ultimate goal and a clear-cut vision about who they want to be and what they want to achieve by being a direct distributor.
You should have confidence in your mission and abilities. The day you start to doubt your abilities and skills as a direct distributor will be the day you lose the battle. Just like in the case of Daenerys, the world around you may belittle you. They may try to stomp over you and disregard your abilities. But if you want to become a powerful and successful direct distributor, you must root for yourself and believe in your capabilities.
Moreover, as a direct distributor, you should also have the power to influence the mass around you. “The world hadn’t seen a dragon in centuries until my children were born. The Dothraki hadn’t crossed the sea. Any sea. They did for me.” Yes, even when the world says your dreams are impossible, if you uphold a strong conviction, the world will start to see that.
So, as a direct distributor, if you strongly believe in the goal you want to achieve, the people around you who are working alongside you will also start believing in it. These are some character traits a direct distributor can imbibe from Daenerys to become a powerful leader and a successful individual. Remember, being an entrepreneur is about determination, conviction, self-confidence and hard work.
