What Is Your Calling?
To be able to do what you are the best at …and enjoy it …is true freedom….
To many times we as REALTORS forget how much we enjoy what we do…the
last few years have pushed many into a “love/hate” relationship with their career. Then there are also those who wallow in their own misery for months and months until they are so covered in “misery mud” it becomes nearly impossible to come clean.
Tip: Take your eyes off your own problems and lift up to focus on others.
I can almost guarantee there is someone out there who has it far worse than you …go to this link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSAXYNIasxk&feature=related and you will see what I mean. When you think you have it bad …watch this video and thank GOD for what you do have.
Your calling? …everyone’s is different …Make a study of the successful associates in your office and discover the sequence of their success. What is their calling? What makes their business different from yours? What are they doing your aren’t?
Is your business or life in the survival mode?
There is only one way to get out of survival mode quickly …change your habits! It takes 30 days of effort to make a success activity a new habit, but only 7 days to break an old bad one! (Scientifically it only takes 21 consecutive days of the activity for it to be considered a habit, but most of us it will take at least 30).
To get to financial freedom you must first get to “STABILITY”…Forming new habits will make you stabile …but to get to financial freedom you will have to change your lifestyle …and what can’t be broken quickly is a lifestyle …
How many of you workout or train religiously 5-6 days a week? And if you didn’t get to go to the gym you would feel like you had “lost the day” or feel out of sorts all day long? That is a life style…
How many of you feel GOD in your life every day, and you pray daily and could not imagine your life without his presence? That is a lifestyle…
NOW …How many of you send hand written notes, make your calls and pop-bys every day? And when you don’t …you feel like you have lost the day, or out of sorts all day long? And you could not imagine your life without completing these success activities …This too is a lifestyle!
So get busy rediscovering your calling in real estate, break some old habits and form some new ones …all the while creating the lifestyle you desire!
