The key to success in real estate is very simple.
It is all about attitude.
You must believe in yourself.
You must believe that you can do what you put your mind to.
Then, you must do it - come hell or high water, as my grandmother would say.
If something isn’t working, try something else.
Look at rejection and/or problems as necessary obstacles that you must navigate your way through in order to accomplish your goal.
Before long, you will find that your definition of a problem or “challenge” will change the more successful that you become.
Initially, a problem might be that a prospective buyer doesn’t show up for an appointment or can’t qualify for financing. Later on, that is just part of the business.
A real problem might be when the house burns down the day before closing and the buyer has already sold their home. AND…. the seller was supposed to close on a different home the day after this closing.
Note: Pricing a home right is about having a "motivated to sell" attitude.
It is all about attitude.
Our lives are not determined by what happens to us, but by how we react to what happens; not by what life brings to us, but by the attitude we bring to life. A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events and outcomes. It is a catalyst...a spark that creates extraordinary results” -- Wade Boggs
It is all about attitude.
Note: The picture above is of the Incline in Manitou Springs, Colorado. The Incline is essentially one mile of steep stairs. The most challenging part is to keep going when you finally reach the halfway point. The halfway point is the one place that you can quit and go back down.
In order to continue on, you must have a positive, determined attitude. You have to truly want to make it to the top. To make it to the top, you climb one step at a time. Eventually, you will find yourself at the top. It takes a preserving attitude to make it to the top. Yet, the view at the top is the best.
A successful real estate career is the same way. You have to want it. You have to have a positive, determined attitude.
It is all about attitude.
