3 D’s of Success
Last week I had the hono0r of speaking on a panel at Inman Connect in San Francisco. The conference was a fantastic mix of agents, managers, owners and technology companies all focused on making the real estate experience better for the agents and their clients. It’s amazing how many options are out there! As with every conference, my goal was to meet 3 new people and find 1 thing that I’m going to implement immediately.
I met dozens of incredible people and the app that I fell in love with is Refresh. It pulls together a social media and internet dossier on people in moments. Giving you everything you need to instantly connect with you next potential client.
The panel and I spoke on Success in a Dress. Female Entrepreneurship.
One of our biggest questions that came up was; how do you get it all done and keep things moving forward? I shared my 3 D’s of any successful day:
Delete: What can you delete from your to do list or calendar? Maybe it’s somethihng that has been on your list for months. Or maybe it’s a marketing plan that sounds exciting, but you are not convinced that it will actually make you money. Let them go. They drag you down, stress you out and zap your energy. Letting them go opens you up to new sales.
Delegate: What can you delegate to someone else? There are things that need to be done, but maybe not by you. Maybe it’s personal, like cleaning your house, or hiring someone to meet contractors, photographers, etc. Those things that eat up big chunks of your day, but don’t need to be done by you.
Do: Take action each day with intention. It’s easy to be reactionary, pinging from one thing to the next. Yes, you are busy, but are you productive? Did you work on your goals or someone else’s? Each day ask yourself “What 1 thing can you do today to move yourself forward?”
What are your 3 D’s today?
To your success!

Markets Like This Call For Shorter Timeframes
For 30 years I’ve planned a year at a time. But right now I’m doing things differently. I’m breaking my plan into 60-90 day chunks. Short term planning used to stress me out. It felt like there wasn’t any margin for error if I got off track. However, right now, it feels supportive. While I…
Why I Stopped Doing Open Houses The First Weekend
Open houses the first weekend – we all do them. We tell our clients it will increase exposure. But what if those open houses are making it more difficult to sell your listing? Consider this… Buyers have come to rely on open houses to view properties. It’s convenient for them, but it means fewer showings.…
What If The Market Is Better Than You Think?
Try this on for size: What if the market isn’t good or bad? What if it’s about shifting your perspective? There are amazing opportunities for both buyers and sellers right now. For buyers: Prices are down (yay!) and interest rates are up (boo!). Buyers need to consider both. In many areas prices are down 10-20%.…

The Cost of Waiting
I’ve talked to many agents that are waiting…. Waiting for interest rates to get betterWaiting for the market to improve (whatever that means)Waiting to show up on social media until they know how to create the perfect viral postWaiting … Waiting … Waiting … I get it. The only thing worse than feeling stuck, is…
It’s Not Just Your Story – It’s Everyone Else’s Too
I’ve spent years working on my own limiting beliefs — but I discovered one at the Abraham Hicks workshop last weekend that I had completely missed. Esther, aka Abraham Hicks, has been a leader in mindset, energy, and attraction for decades. My mom actually took my sister and me to a workshop 30 years ago,…
Bet On Yourself VS The Market
Last week I shared how the end of August is a weird time – wanting to savor summer, while also shifting back into work mode. Turns out I’m not the only one this happens to! Thank you for all of the notes and feedback. I’ve found that when I’m not taking action, I spend WAY…
I Used To Dread The Last 2 Weeks Of August
Thirty years in real estate has taught me a lot of things. One of the best is this: I can finally see my own patterns. Like the one where I get twitchy every year mid-August. Part of me wants summer to stretch on forever. Part of me is itching for routine, order, and the satisfaction…
Beliefs = Actions = Results – It Matters Where You Start
August is an interesting month for me. I’m savoring the relaxed pace of summer, while also starting to think about Fall and shifting back into work mode. With a shift in focus I naturally start wondering what will happen. Will I be busy? Where will my clients come from? Will they be buyers or sellers?…
What Do You LOVE About Your Business?
