The Extraordinary Shines Through

By
Education & Training with Berman & Pollinger, LLC.

"A person who is successful has simply formed the habit of doing that unsuccessful people will not do."

 

The difference between those that achieve the average and those that achieve the exceptional many times comes down to the small differences in their daily activity.  It's going the extra mile when everyone else stops to rest.  It's going above and beyond when others decide they've done enough. 

The average agent this season mentally checks out from Thanksgiving to New Years, the exceptional have their best month working with those that are serious about getting into a home (after all, how many people are really out looking at houses or selling during the holiday season if they really don't have to?)  To be exceptional, we need to finish strong, to go the extra mile and be willing to do what others won't.  It's in the last final details that the extraordinary shines through.

Wonderful and true sentiments...there are lots of other groups in AR land that would welcome this blog...think about reposting to some of the others.

Definately true!  We have many agents that aren't really available this tie of year.  But it's way more important to spend time with those kiddos of yours than to make one extra sales sometimes.  I won't be walking away from Christmas or Thanksgiving dinner or festivities to show houses!

As always, you are right on target. In fact, Todd and I will be trying to talk my parents out of selling their AZ house FSBO during Thanksgiving dinner!
