This is Ben Souchek with Real Estate Mastery - How To Create A Life That Doesn’t Require Your Presence.

It’s been a few weeks since I have been able to sit down and record a podcast. It seems as the time around the holidays flies by before you know it. Personally, I can believe 2019 is over let alone the first month of 2020. It seems like the older I get, the faster time goes. A whole year can fly by and you can’t remember what you did.
 
2019 - My Year In Review

When I first think about it, it doesn’t necessarily seem like I accomplished much in 2019. This is exactly why I think it’s important to think back on what you did and celebrate those wins.
For me, I finally started my podcast, something I had wanted to do for a very long time. I am not currently doing it as consistently as I would like, but I am actively taking steps to grow it into something bigger. Attracting motivated sellers is tough right now. With so much competition out there right now, generating high-quality leads can be a challenging process. I know that I need to do something to stand out from the crowd, and this podcast is part of the process.

Standing Out

As the real estate industry changes with iBuyers and more and more people getting into real estate, both agents and investors will have to do things that separate them from the pack. If you are just an agent or just an investor, you may find yourself very limited in that lane. It is my opinion that everyone involved in the business should make themselves a “total solutions agent.” Instead of just offering one option to your clients, offer many or work with a company that does.

Today, when my team goes in to meet with a seller, they will discuss the positives and negatives of each selling solution. We’re finding that we are able to do much more business because we’re always able to provide the best solution.

Setting Goals & Realizing How Far I’ve Come

For my 20+ years in real estate, I have always set goals for myself. I’ve found that we often overestimate what we can do in one year and underestimate what we can do in 10. When I think back to ten years ago and what I wanted for my future, I can confidently say I am at the place where I wanted to be. In the past ten years, I have accomplished a lot.

As I write this, my family and I are spending our winter in Florida to avoid the NE winter. Being able to travel freely with my family is something I always dreamed about doing. Ten years ago, this wouldn’t have been a reality for me. It’s about much more than the money. Sure, money allows you to buy the things you want. But being able to spend this time with my family means far more to me than any dollar amount. I may not feel as if I changed the world this past year, but when I look back over the past ten, I can see how far I’ve come.

Where Do You Want To Be?

I challenge you to write down where you want to be in one, five, and ten years, both professionally and personally. Write down a plan of action that will help you to get there. Find a speaker or a podcast you can listen to that really helps to motivate you into achieving your goals. It doesn’t have to be the most popular motivational speaker out there. For me, I’ve found that the most popular ones don’t really resonate with me. It’s important to find the person who speaks to you.

If you’re not where you want to be today, remember that this is an ongoing journey. You can be well on your way and enjoy the success that you’ve had this far. Be grateful for what you’ve achieved, your gifts, and the opportunities you’ve had.

My next post will cover content creation, something that was very elusive for me in the past. And coming up shortly thereafter, I want to share my takeaways from the Funnel Hacking Live Conference I am currently attending here in FL. If you have an interest in lead generation and really finding ways to get your message out there, I highly recommend taking the Click Funnel Challenge. If you sign up here, I’ll be happy to hop on a consulting call to help you with the process.
