Motivational Speaker - Terry Watson

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Retired Associate RE Broker

 

 

Yesterday I had the good fortune to see Terry Watson present at our Board of Realtors Luncheon and he was amazing!  We only had 20 minutes with him but he had everyone in the audience standing at the end!   He was at the end of a very long list of awards for those that participated in committees, GRI Certificates being awarded and new inductees to the Board.   The only reason people were sticking around was because the sponsor was giving away a cruise at the end.  Most times our lunches this is the longest 20 minutes of our our lives - yesterday was different!  He had everyone laughing within the first minute and I am still smiling a day later.

Terry really forced us to look at things differently and definately gave us a lot to think about!  What a great boost in motivation for all that were in the room!  I ran into a Realtor that did not attend and I was the third person that told him he missed something special.  To check his unique motivational style, check out his website at: http://www.terrywatson.com/ and if you have the good fortune to see him in person you should go!    His site is full of information, quotes, and resources for you!  You can actually watch some video of him presenting material from New Zeland.

There are several hundred pumped up Real Estate Practitioners on Marco Island as a result of the brief 20 minutes we spent with this amazing man!

Have a Great Day!  See the Article in December 7th in the Marco Island Sun Times, I am pictured in the far right front in the teal dress.....

Terry spoke at our annual membership meeting last month.  He was FANTASTIC.  His speech was on my list of things to blog about, and I am so glad you did it.  I hope more people get the chance to hear Terry.  He is informative and entertaining.

So what do you put in a Toaster?

And more importantly did he tell you how to respond to an extreamly low ball offer?   I thought I was going to fall on the floor laughing with him.   And then you go to his site and there is all of this great stuff...  I spent most of my BLOGGING time there instead!!!!

Terry Watson is one of my all time favorites.  He's truly motivational, funny as hell and it all comes from a place where he truly appreciates all the great things in his life. 

I would go out of my way to see him -- again.

Colleen ~ Terry gets around.  He was in my backyard last Friday, touting the Color me successful tour...

He certainly has a lot of energy.  I can't hear as fast as he talks!

Great way to keep motivated between "live" events is to listen to CDs of these motivational speakers while driving to your next appointment!

Happy Thanksgiving from The Marriott Group at Keller Williams Realty Professional Partners!

Terry taught the ABR e-Buyer class in Las Vegas in 2005. His energy and charisma started out high from the first minute and stayed there for the entire day. He's a great speaker and motivator - if you get a chance to see him it's definitely worth the time and money.

You mentioned Terry Watson at your meeting. I wonder if he told you his story about "perception is everything" where he gets on an empty elevator to go meet his colleagues and mentors. At the next floor a stranger gets on the elevator. Terry then notices a terrificly wicked smell which he knows did not come from himself. The stranger gets off at the next floor leaving Terry almost in tears from the smell. Terry's destination is the next floor to his relief. The elevator door opens and all the people Terry was going to meet get in the elevator. OMG! LOL! Perception is everything!

I saw Terry at a annual California Association of Realtors convention in Long Beach, California, it was one of the best luncheon that I have ever gone to, he was funny and at the same time educational. The food even tasted good.
