The #1 Thing You Can Do To Reach Your Goals
Spring is in the air! Well maybe not totally in the air. It’s 25 degrees as I write this, but the sun is out and it feels like the market is picking up. 2 out of 3 isn’t bad.
As we roll into March 1 of 2 things tends to happen with agents. Either you get busy and stop focusing on you core activities like making FORD calls, sending note cards and connecting with clients, or you get frustrated by everyone else being busy except you, and start to drift.
In either scenario, it’s easy to go a few months before you realize, something is off. And once momentum is lost, it takes a bit to get it going again.
But the good news is, there’s an easy solution, and one that doesn’t have to cost you anything.
Get an accountability partner. It could be a paid coach or another agent that you agree to connect with on a weekly basis to check in.
Here are a few tips to keep you on track and moving towards your goals:
- Connect at least once a week
- Commit to your actions before the meeting. ie. connecting with 30 people a week, etc
- Be honest, did you do it or not?
- Celebrate your wins
- Own when you didn’t do it. We all need some time off, but an accountability partner can help ensure it’s a week or two and not 6 months.
- Commit to your actions for the next week
- Track your results
Have fun with it. Know that there will be days you can’t wait to meet, and others where you will wish you could cancel. But if you are willing to commit to it, your year will be amazing.
To your success!
