27. What do you do when you get knocked down? Why the right mindset makes all the difference in the world.

Being successful is hard, in any line of work.

The more you are trying to achieve, the more challenges you will have. The more challenges you have, the more chances of failing.

And when you fear failing, or when you get knocked down, the right mindset will make all the difference in the world. 

It will first lead you to get in shape and put in the hard work and the investment needed in your skills to succeed, and it will then inspire the courage and confidence you’ll need to overcome fear when things get tough.

I recently had the absolute pleasure of interviewing non-other than Chris Heller, to talk about his story, and learn how he got to where he is, what challenges he faced, and what lessons he learned along the way.

Chris Heller earned his real estate license when he was 20 years old and went on to build one of the most successful real estate teams in the United States. Named President of KW Worldwide in 2010, Heller launched the company’s first regions outside of North America, leading Keller Williams to record productivity and profitability markers. His vision and leadership helped grow the Company into the most dominant worldwide real estate franchise in history. In 2015 Heller was named CEO of KWRI, where he led the transformation into the technology company KW is today as well as record growth and profitability. He also led mellohome as a CEO in 2018 and 2019, amongst various other leadership positions he has held during his career.

Chris Heller currently serves as a President at OJO Labs, an Austin-based real estate technology company guiding more people to successful homeownership.
