A goal without a plan is just a dream.
I've read (and written about) this quote before and it sticks with me every time. Every few months I plan out my strategy for success and quite often, I feel like I fall a little short. Have you ever had that feeling? It can be incredibly frustrating!
When I first got into real estate, my mentor at SUCCESS! told me that in order to be a successful agent, it was important to write out a list of at least 10 proactive things that I would need to do every week. If I stuck to that plan, I would have success as a Realtor® and my clients would be very thankful that they had someone they can rely on.
I've been working on those proactive things every week ever since. I don't always get to my 10 items (like getting this blog out every few weeks), but I do my best to make sure I'm doing the little things to keep business coming in. I can assure you that the very simple concept of writing out that list has been an absolute life saver for me.
Staying consistent in my goals can be a challenge. Whether trying to maintain an exercise routine, sticking to a diet, checking in with friends, etc, I've had some lapses. The one thing I never let up on however is my commitment to my active clients. Whether you are looking to buy your first home, selling your long time property, or somewhere in between, I am proud to dedicate my time to you to ensure the best possible real estate experience.
That being said, I'm off to make my list for this week. Until next time...
