keep your eyes focused straight forward and stay client focused. You've already recognized that the other agent is trying to distract you.

In this business you have to develope a thick skin. Learn from the failures and move forward and remind this person of that. Ask them about their "failures". When this person comes at you with a question about a past "failure" ...say something like...Oh did you see the new property I just listed, or just closed. Turn it around on them.

Dear anonymous,

It is not the 'other' who lives in the past, but you also. As long as you grant others the AUTHORITY to 'get you off your game' you will forever be looking for others to blame.

There is ONLY YOU. Accept that you are totally accountable and you will find the obstacles in your life will appear as they really are.

Of course appearing here under the banner ANONYMOUS tells a lot.

Well you can either take him out back and give him a tuneup and lesson in manners.

Or you can learn how to make a joke out of it and laugh it off, people like this will tire easily if it does not bother you.
