Foreclosures Are Up, Unemployment is Up but be of Good Cheer!
Posted by: | Comments
It is really amazing how anyone can function with today’s news. I mean if it is not one thing it is another. I was talking with a friend last night at church and he told me that he was in shock over how much interest rates had shot up in just a few hours yesterday. I was reminded of what Jesus said to the disciples, “in this world you shall have touble, but be of good cheer!”
Great word, but how do you really do that? I mean come on, if your pipeline just blew up, the seller just backed out, and the buyer just lost their job how can you be of good cheer? It all comes down to a little perspective. Change your perspective and you will change your attitude. Change your attitude to one of hope and you will begin to see all of the possibilities that were always there. Gain hope and you will begin to make plans. Make plans and you will begin to take action, and taking action ALWAYS conquers fear!
Today’s world of real estate holds many opportunities. I read a statistic from NAMB, that said this year, the industry will be a 2.6 trillion (that’s right, trillion) dollar industry! WOW! That represents alot of opportunity!
Have you ever heard someone say, “well, back in the good ole days…” I would say that this time will be referenced down the road. “Well, back in the good ole days you could buy a home for 80 cents on the dollar, get a rate below 6%, and an $8000 check from the gubment!” Don’t let opportunity pass you by! Be of good cheer! Carry the torch and be passionate about the opportunities all around you!
Lets look at these Perspective Changers…
- Foreclosures Are up to I have the opportunity to find buyers and bargains!
- Unemployment is 10% to 90% of my prospects have a job!
- Loans are hard to get to over 50% of the people have credit above 700 and can get a mortgage!
- The news is so negative to I will be the torch bearer for my clients and lead the charge to growing my business and helping my clients succeed!
Just a little right perspective. That is all we really need to get the ball rolling!
Now go make a friend, because if you do that, you will make a sale! I guarantee it!!!
This Can Make You Rich, Healthy, And Beautiful…
Posted by: | CommentsEveryone is looking for the “answer”. How can I get more sales? How can I manage my time better? How can I eat 10 saltine crackers in under a minute without having anything to drink? (Actually that can’t be done, we tried…)
Anyway, you get my point. Let me share with you a very simple truth to making whatever you want happen…
DECIDE.
Yep, that’s it. Simply decide. You want to be a winner – decide. You want more sales – decide. You want to lose weight – decide. You see nothing happens until you make the decision. I meet a lot of people who want a lot of things, but only a few people move from wanting to getting and the bridge is simply the decision to go after the dream.
Now when I say to decide, I really mean you need to sell out to the decision. Selling out means that you will do whatever it takes to make your want a reality. When you decide to go after the vision, you will get resistance. There will be mountains to overcome, hurdles to jump, and battles to fight. There will be days you want to slip, days your will be fully engaged, and days you will question your decision. If you are sold out, then you will overcome all of these hurdles.
You may have to work harder than the guy next to you, you may have to run farther than the guy before you, and you may need to make more calls than the person in front of you, but if you are completely sold out the gaining the victory, then these things will not matter.
Everyone has a magic potion to make you rich, skinny, and beautiful they want to sell you, but the real sell comes when you sell yourself on your dream.
Now, go out and make a friend, cause if you make a friend you will make a sale! (maybe the first friend you need to make is be a friend to yourself…just a thought)
