A few months ago I was at home thinking about all sorts of ways to make more money. I had written them down and began to make a list of contact numbers, etc. Then one day I was talking to one of the trainers in our office about how he had become so successful in just a few short years. This guy could easily be the next in line to our Broker-in-charge. He had lots of clients, an assistant, and a great personality. Real easy to talk to. He later told me that a trainer/teacher in our Real Estate School had sat down with him a few years ago and helped him have a clear vision about where he wanted to go and how to get there. So I called her up, made an appointment to talk with me for about an hour, and brought all of my ideas on how to make more money.
I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to sit with her because she travels heavily and meets with some high profile real estate figures in our industry. Now I don't necessarily mean real estate agents, but other business owner, authors, prolific industry coaches that are exclusive to certain parts of the country, etc.
Well, I would like to share a few of those valuable lessons with you. If you are like me and want to learn all that you can, so that you will be all that you can be, then this can help you along the way.
- Have written goals. Review them every day and do something, no matter how small, to advance your position.
- Focus on one or two things that you like to do and that you are willing to do. Do not go hunting with a shotgun if you are trying to hit one target - or in this case, possibly two targets.
- Learn all that you can about your focus areas. Go to classes, meet people that are relevant to these goals, take good notes - even if they are only mentally.
- Eliminate problems or situations that may cause you to wander off into another realm. Let me be more specific about this: There is nothing wrong with opportunities, but be clear that is is important, if not urgent. You must stay on track and not waste time on things that are not for you.
- Again, stick to one or two things and no more. You must go through the ups and downs, learn from the good and bad, and then put what you have learned from these trials to good use. It is better to be the master of one or possibly two, then to be average at 5 or 6.
- Most importantly of all.........Give back. Remember that you too needed help from someone, a group, etc. Your greatest reward will be knowing that you helped someone else along the way.
Just a little FYI - FACT: 97% of the U.S. wealth is owned by 3% of the population. The Reason Why: The three percent has written goals.
It is good to have written goals!
