When someone treats their real estate career as a job that's all it will ever be.

When you treat your real estate career as a business . . . . you will focus on operating your business successfully.

Good luck and success.

I treat every activity as if I was an hourly employee employed by the toughest boss around.  I question is this the best use of my time.  Nuff said.

I am guilty as charged. The key now is to find what activities others should be doing. That is my goal this year

Yes Tammy, it is a argument made many times over by the Rich Dad crew, most here by this definition do not own a business.

Just listened to the podcast, very good!

And to answer your question on the bottom.  I have spent most of my career training, recruiting and mentoring good people so that I can step out for a while when I need to.

Thanks for the listen! I appreciate it. I find so many folks in RE have "jobs" and unfortunately they are bad employees with terrible time managment. LOL

Yes, so many get into real estate to "own their own business" yet don't learn how to actually do it.

You are so right!  Most don't even realize they should be a business   :-(

Hello Tammy

I own several businesses and have not really thought about this before, and your post has been featured to the group:

First off, thank you so much for the feature!  I think most of us when we own a small business forget to step back and ask ourselves the question. We are so proud to be a business owner that we never realize, in reality, we own our job. But hey, at least we like our boss!  (ok, most of the time...lol)
