How Well Do You Roll With It?
It’s the first week of the month, which means it’s time to break out the calculator.
3 months down, 9 to go, $X earned and $Y left means you need to make what amount a month to reach your goal?
Every 30 days the calculation gets redone, and each time you ask – are you getting closer to or further away from your goal?
What can feel easy, breezy at the beginning of the year, can feel like a hail mary as the months go by.
If you are like me, the closer you get to hail mary status, the less motivated you become. I know that sounds like the opposite of what is supposed to happen. The reality, though, is that too much pressure stresses me out, and shuts me down.
So if what we are doing is stressing us out what do we do instead? After all, virtually every sales training / goal setting class starts with “know your numbers”.
What if you could put down the calculator, and try something different? Something that didn’t make you hyperventilate?
Einstein said it best:
“You can’t solve a problem with the same level of thinking that created it.”
Let go of the how and when and tap into your ability to create your dreams.
Get clear on exactly what it is you want, and why you want it.
From there, set aside time each day to tap into that. It sounds weird, but it works. Every time I’ve had a big growth in my business it’s because I let go of the how, and focused on keeping my energy and therefore my actions moving forward.
I’d love to tell you that I get it right all of the time, but I’m a classic over thinker, so there are also times when I feel the need to control the how and all of the details. The minute I stop rolling with it so does my income.
So weird or not, I can tell you from experience, that one definitely works better than the other.

To your success!

Letting Go Of The Hustle Sounds Great, But You’ve Got a Business To Run
To be clear, I am 100% for less hustle, more flow, manifesting, receiving, regulating my nervous system, and letting things be easier.

The Beauty of Not Doing It Alone
Thank you for being part of this community! I learned something beautiful and powerful last week. It was vulnerable to post about recalibrating, and being in the messy middle of grieving.

Recalibrate In a Business That Runs 24/7
It happens to me every year about this time. The need to recalibrate. In a business that can run 24/7 – it’s easy to look up one day and realize, your batteries are drained and there’s no break in sight. Side note – It doesn’t have to be a 24/7 thing, but that’s a topic…
It’s Okay For Things To Be Different
I often find myself comparing things.

I used to dread client conversations. Especially pricing conversations with sellers in a softer market, like we are in right now. I was afraid of letting them down. It came up this week with a new listing. They bought at the height of the market in 2022. Today’s prices are lower than that. How do…
What If Your Income Didn’t Depend On The Market?
There are multiple markets occurring right now – in the same cities, on the same streets. Sellers are experiencing it one way. Buyers are experiencing it another. And agents? All over the board. Same market. Completely different results. So what’s the difference? What you believe. What you look for. And how you show up. Two…
