When The World Gets Noisy
Markets like thismake or break agents.
Now, more than ever, your success is determined by – What you believe – How you show up – Owning your value.
Are you just trying to make it work with everything going on in the world? Hoping to find clients with the courage to move?
Or
Are you showing up – owning your authority, expertise, and network – knowing that clients are out there, and you are the best person to help them?
I have seen it many times in my career.
When there’s a lot of noise – and very real situations, it’s easy to question how and if things will work out.
Here is what I know after 30 years of selling real estate.
The market will keep moving. Your clients need your guidance now more than ever. They aren’t expecting you to have a crystal ball on world events. They are expecting you to help them navigate their next move, and to show up with the confidence to do so.
Here are 5 things that help me when the world gets noisy to stay on track and keep my mindset right.
- Get intentional about the media you consume. I’ve never been a huge news watcher. I know just enough to counsel my clients on their real estate moves. Instead, I focus on positive things. Each morning I watch a positive video clip. This one by Esther Hicks is great!
- Work out more. A walk, swimming, lifting weights, dancing around the house to great music. Movement is one of the easiest and quickest ways to shift your energy.
- Build Your Network. I call agents constantly for price opinions, and to see how the activity has been on their listings. It’s valuable market knowledge that helps me counsel clients. I always appreciate how willing so many agents are to share. Together we all get better.
- Preview active listings. The more connected you are to the market, the more confident you will feel. Knowledge really is power.
- Deliberate chose your focus. We tend to see what we expect to find. If you believe that there are opportunities out there, you will find them. If you think the market is stalled and no one is moving, that will be your experience.
Success is a choice as much as it is an action.
Keep showing up. Believe in yourself and the world around you.
Never under estimate the power of your focus. I’ve been running my Proof It’s Working group for 2 months now, and the shifts that people have made by choosing to look for what’s working is amazing!
Something about the group seems to amplify the results for everyone. Ready to make this a great year? I invite you to join us for the next round that starts next Monday, March 16th.
To your success!

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?
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…
How Do You Want Summer To Feel?
Summer is often a season of expectations not meeting reality. I used to think my perfect summer meant iced tea on the patio while reading every day. For the record, that’s never happened. And for a while, I felt bad about it — like I was missing out, like I was doing summer wrong. Until…
