What If You Already Are The Person You Want to Become?
I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately.
Anytime we set a goal it’s about creating something new or different in our lives. Which creates a disconnect. Where we are now is different from where we want to be.
Setting goals or seeking change is common. We are always growing, changing and evolving. Yet the space between where we are and where we want to be can feel awkward and uncertain. Will we get from point A to point B? What will it take? How long will the journey be?
So many opportunities for doubt to come in.
What if we shifted our focus, from bridging the gap, to being the result?
Meaning, what if we took a step back and got really clear on the version of us that we want to become and started acting from that perspective?
Let’s say your goal is to double your income…
If you focus on the actions to get you there, what comes up? Overwhelm at doing more? Uncertainty about if it will work and if you’re doing the right things? So many opportunities to get side tracked and not follow through.
But what if you sat for a bit and got really clear on the version of you that was already doing that level of business. What would they be doing? How would they show up? What would be different about their thoughts and actions?
Could you step into that version of yourself today and start thinking and acting that way?
Give it a try. See what comes up. Do you feel more confident? Is it easier to commit?
Change is about taking one step at a time. Keep moving forward knowing that each step gets you closer and offers valuable information.
Know that you can accomplish any goal you set for yourself.
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

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?
I’m back!!! There’s been a lot going on lately, (more on that in a later post) and it’s been a few weeks since I’ve sent you a note. Needless to say, I’ve missed you! I’ve been moving through a lot of ‘life’ lately, and there’s been a common thread in my business that has surprised…
