I have great genes... one of the best traits my family has passed on to me is that of the bargain-hunger.  I swear its practically genetic, how intense my desire is to find good deals, and then buy them.  One of my favorite sites for bargains (for both the deals, and the entertaining writing) is Woot.com,  I've been an avid follower for a few years now, and I even have attempted to market some products to Woot in the past for sale on their site.  Nothings ever worked out, but I've appreciated having some knowledge of the inner workings of Woot.

What sets Woot apart from every other shopping site on the net is its writing, which I've admired for some time.  Now, thanks to a post on Gizmodo, by Woot's head writer, we get a chance to learn more about what its like to write for Woot... and about how hard work, can be both motivating and fulfilling.

My take-away from the article was that NOTHING replaces hard work.  When I have to sell, nothing will replace the effort that it takes to pick up the phone, and call 25 customers today.  And, at the end of today, even if I wasn't successful in selling, at least I can be confident that I made the attempt.  An attempt today, despite failure, is still motivating, because there's always tomorrow.
