Every sales and motivational book, tape series, and article says that you need to have a great strong mindset.  The Ocala Florida real estate market has apprx a 3 year supply of available homes for sale, prices have declined 16% in the last 12 months, and sales are down 40%-50% from last year which was down 30% from the previous year, so as you can imagine that dealing with those numbers everyday, sometimes I want to buy into them it is hard to keep a positive mindset. 

I know that my job is to understand those facts so that I can give my clients the best advice, and at the same time not let my business get influenced or distracted by them.  

I also work daily on reviewing the positive information, such as todays closed & pending sales, I say affirmations with my kids on the drive to drop them off at school and listen to positive sales info all day long, like Mike Ferry, Brian Tracey, & Tony Robbins.

I was just wondering what you guys are doing to keep your mindset strong while being bombarded with so much negative info each day?

Michael - Through all that info...there is positive info that you can dispense.  I try to stay with the positive - the information the media won't publish - because it's good and they are looking to dwell on the negative.

Don't listen to all the media.  I can see some positive things happening in our market and as Joe states above, they don't HYPE it up.  Even before the "market meltdown" I had seen a slowing in sales, showings and a big rise in inventory.  We are out there selling homes and we can usually see trends before they happen and before the media reports on it.  Every day write down atleast one positive thing that happened (no matter what it is) and focus on that!!!!

Stay away from the water cooler in your office where all of the naysayers hang out discussing how bad the market is doing. Focus on what you are doing. You're doing the right things. Thanks for sharing.

Good Post!
