real estate: Whiskey's Wisdom: Do Your Best - 01/06/24 12:14 PM
"I do the very best I know how — the very best I can;
and I mean to keep doing so until the end.
If the end brings me out all right,
what is said against me won’t amount to anything.
If the end brings me out wrong,
ten angels swearing I was right would make no difference."
~ President Abraham Lincoln
Your action for today is to realize: 
The person in the mirror matters more
than the critics in the cheap seats.
If you're doing your best,

real estate: The Clock ⌚ and The Compass 🧭 - 01/01/24 07:37 AM
The Clock and The Compass

In the journey of life, we are often faced with a choice: do we follow the ticking of the clock or the guiding direction of the compass? Many of us, knowingly or unknowingly, choose the former, allowing the relentless march of time to dictate our actions and decisions. We become slaves to the daily grind, measuring our worth by the number of tasks we accomplish and the hours we put in at work.
In the realm of real estate, this tendency is especially pronounced. Agents and brokers, driven by the pressure to succeed and the allure of financial … (10 comments)

real estate: Are REALTORS® Over Paid? - 12/11/23 12:37 PM
I missed this when it was originally posted, but it's recirculating at our office today. Shared with permission and encouragement from the author:
Facebook
Friends, before you go and ask for a discount on your commission from a REALTOR® for helping you sell your home, please understand what you're truly asking for them to do ... and ask yourself this question: If your boss came to you and asked you to work overtime, but wasn't going to compensate you for doing so, would you still do it?
Another day, another person who says REALTORS®  are overpaid and an unnecessary part of a transaction. I’m … (13 comments)

real estate: Thankful Thought in Active Rain’s Gratitude Challenge (Entry 3 of 4) - 11/18/23 03:26 AM
Thankful Thought in Active Rain’s Gratitude Challenge (Entry 3 of 4)
In this post I'll share my gratitude for a very specific coach; Coach Cami. While I am grateful for all my coaches at Buffini & Company I've had over the years, at Ninja Selling, Darren Hardy Insane Workshop, Michael E. Gerber's E-Myth Academy & Dreaming Room, CRS, RCS-D, Mentors and angels along the way, the coach that means the most to me, despite being retired now, is still Coach Cami.

real estate: Work With An Expert Not A Salesperson - 11/16/23 10:00 AM
Times are changing and the skillsets you posses (and more importantly convey) are going to be your bridge from surviving 2023 to thriving in 2024 as we move through the 2023-2024 era of inflation, recession, bank failures, the interest rates rollercoaster and a billion dollar+ NAR lawsuit that will be ultimately be challenging if not changing how you get paid-at least as a selling agent.

We are salespeople and we should be proud of that. Nothing happens economically in this world until a sale happens. We move money, create jobs, resolve problems, serve people, and connect needs & wants with solutions and … (21 comments)

real estate: Whiskey's Wisdom: No! Not Yet! - 11/14/23 05:28 PM
"It is always too soon to quit."
~ Author, Norman Vincent Peale

Throwback to April 2022
Your action for today
is to see if there is something
you are considering quitting
and put in double the effort instead.
I almost quit something in 2019
that would have changed my life forever.
I hung in there, even though it was harder to do so
and because I did...
I changed my life forever -
for the so, so much better!
Never Quit.

real estate: EASY MONEY? - 11/06/23 05:37 PM
Easy Money?
Opportunity Is Missed By Most People Because
It Is Dressed in Overalls and Looks Like Work 
- Thomas Edison
I’ve been a paper boy, a caddy, a grocery clerk, a delivery man, a sheet metal worker, a bookstore clerk, a DJ, a house painter, a handy man, a property manager and a REALTOR®. I enjoyed parts of each job or career, and I hated certain parts of each too. One thing I’ll share, is none of it, from minimum wage to no-income-ceiling was easy money but some of it was fun money. I had fun at all of these jobs and businesses … (22 comments)
