Successful people never give up, read books on finding success, and set high goals.
In real estate, agents often say, "If only ____________________." Fill in the blank! They blame the market, lenders, the government, their broker, and everyone else for their lack of success. Whether you are a success or not it totally up to you.
You set your goals and make your action plan. You put your plan into place. You work and monitor the plan.
No one can keep you from finding the success you want! Onward and upward!

Some folks seem to have a talent for self-sabotage and many make blame-lessening excuses for their inability to act. It's not that the excuses aren't ever valid. It just sometimes the excuses come whether they are valid or not.
I believe that everything in life starts with the right opportunity. It is the one that can take you to that next level of success. The one that when you see it, you want to grab it and run.
Over the past several months, I have been reading a lot about success and doing a lot of deep introspection of self and the business. I was stagnat and needed to understand the reason. Below are some of what I have gleaned from my studies.
1. Be disciplined. I am in competition with others who are talented. I can't be sloppy.
2. Be confident. Overcome insecurities. Tap into the latent “other self”. The one that knows what it wants and will do what it takes to obtain it.
3. Be bold. Make a decision and do it. I can’t win the game sitting on the sidelines.
4. Be humble. I realized I was lost. I swallowed my pride and asked others for help.
5. Revel in others success. When I applauded the growth, happiness and success of others, they celebrated mine.
In short, I needed to learn to get out of my own way. When I do that, growth happens.It is a GREAT day at Complete Home Inspections!
