In the January 1918 edition of Business Philosopher Magazine, a story by William W. Woodbridge was printed. It's the story of a down-and-out salesperson, John Bradford, who essentially fired himself! 

It’s a story of getting right with yourself. I fell in love with it, and wanted to share it with you.
