Part of the beauty about what I do as Colorado Springs CO Realtor, as well as any other Realtor® in this profession, is that I get to develop my business model as I see fit.
That’s right. I set the rules, if rules are important to me. I create the definitions regarding core values and consumer service, if this is relative to my plan. I determine the rhythm and pace of the workload by my own select choices. Don’t I? It seems like nine out of ten times, the answer is no, not really.
The truth of the matter is that if you want to be successful in this profession, then it’s really not about what “I” want. Sure, having tremendous leadership abilities are very important about running your overall business operations. Nonetheless, self-assertion and self-sufficiency and being top-heavy with advanced systems actually generate more resistance than allowing for skillful development in this business.
Through the years, I’ve found that the spirit of cooperation has torn down many walls of resistance in our particular business, whether systems or negotiations or relationships or self-limited beliefs or whatever else are involved. The spirit of cooperation has propelled some of our most creative thoughts into action, followed by tangible results.
For example, our brokerage is relocating a large company from California to Colorado Springs over this next year. And through the spirit of cooperation, we have confronted the brick wall of resistance (unnecessary fear and unhealthy competition between other professionals) in the relocation process.
Instead of trying to accumulate all the business for our own benefit, we’ve taken a different course of action. We’ve rounded up some of the best in the area to participate in this adventurous endeavor. We’ve basically torn down the walls of competition between fellow Colorado Springs Realtors, property management companies, lenders, hospitality companies and such. Gracefully, we’ve made them part of our team approach.
The end result is that less resistance has now become part of this huge undertaking.
Seth Godin asserts that resistance is that voice that deters you from your creative genius and tries to make you to fit into the status quo. If you’re a dreamer, an innovator, or a high achiever, then I encourage you to lessen your resistance instead of trying to add extra tools to your business tool bag that you probably won’t use in the future anyway. The extra poundage of hammers might make you look good, but it will not make you feel better nor perform to your optimal potential.
Sometimes not having it all translates into really having it all. I propose better living involves nourishment, not just having the focus on accumulation. What are your thoughts?
