I've written about having GRIT before in this business. Yesterday, while cheering my. son in his first Cross Country meet, I was once again reminded of this term. I revisited the two posts I wrote on this topic, one from 2015, and one from 2023. Obviously, I like this term.
As I watched all of these hard-working kids push through extreme humidity and heat, the word, GRIT kept popping up in my head. I think for many, getting gritty in the business is not new. Some, however, may have lost their GRIT GRIP.
In the ever-changing world of real estate, it is more important than ever to have some GRIT. And those of you who follow me, know I love acronyms. So, bear with me as we explore getting GRITTY in real estate.
G - Get up, get going, get off your duff! Seriously, many issues simply are there because of a lack of having a GRITTY "get-up" in your "get-along".
R - Rebound! If you learn to rebound quickly when things take a hard turn. When you can pick yourself up and dust off those boots quickly, you will have a leg up on your competition. Falls can be hard but getting up takes GRIT.
I - Identify your weak areas and make a plan to improve. Without a plan in place, it is difficult to see positive changes. GRITTY people dig deeply to stay on top of their game.
T - Tackle the difficult tasks you may be avoiding. It's human nature to put aside the things we don't like or we want to avoid. Getting those GRITTY issues out of the way can clear your path to a more productive day!
My son running yesterday renewed my GRIT! I refuse to stay in the weeds of mediocrity. And, no matter what comes our way in this business, we shall move forward in confidence.
We've got this! We've got GRIT!
