If I accept you as you are I will make you worse
However…
If I treat you as though you are what you are capable of becoming
I will help you become that….
– Goethe
In life you are either an example or a warning. Stop “just getting through” your life!
Make a plan…
1. Plan to win
2. Prepare to win
3. Expect to win
4. Take action to win
“The Only Disability in Life is a Bad Attitude.” – Matthew Jeffers
We are in the 3rd month of the 1st quarter of 2015. Are you on track for the year that you wanted?
Some of you are and some are not…
I feel sometimes that some of you ARE KIDDING YOURSELVES.
Anyone here sick of not being as successful as they would like to be?
Look, you are where you are because it’s OK with you.
Here is the crazy part of this. Some of us have accepted mediocrity yet complain and:
- Expect to make six figures
- Are bitter about other peoples successes.
- Make excuses for not being successful.
I frankly just don’t get it, I really don’t.
You have attended seminar after seminar and learned what it takes to succeed in real estate, yet you fail to do the follow through.
Stop! Just stop lying to yourself and admit that you are where you are because you did not complete the tasks that it takes to close deals.
Write down these two things on an index card and place it right in front of you in your workspace.
1. “Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out…” – Robert Collier
2. “SELF DISCIPLINE” It’s crucial to your success!
3. Success is rooted in self-discipline. Self-discipline is the ability to do what you should, whether you feel like it or not.
Don’t get me wrong, there are many principles that go into being successful but without self-discipline, you will not succeed.
Unsuccessful agents complain and do little about it. You chose to be where you are and to me it’s crazy when agents are complaining about not making the money they want and need while they are not putting in the work necessary to do so.
4. It takes hard work and discipline to be a successful real estate agent.
I passed out a list of activities needed to excel in this business. If you do these activities consistently, you will be successful. Do these basic activities, implement them into your life.
I understand that you may not master all of them right away but with self-discipline, over time you will get where you want to be.
How well you follow through with your activities determines your success.
You make things happen only by seeing them through to the end. Stick with it!
5. Today matters!
What is your attitude right now?
How do you feel about you and where you are in life?
If you don’t like you life right now you can change it..
A good attitude may not be everything…
A good attitude may not be the only thing…
Yet it is a great start.
Do what you are supposed to do when you are supposed to do it and you will succeed.
Stop kidding yourself and go to work!!
