With so much business going on these days, and with so many changes in society, Matt and Garret are hearing more and more about people who are stumbling a bit and saying that they have run out of the time and/or motivation to get their systems done each week. This can be the start of a slippery slope so today our hosts set their focus on some tips to help you get back on track and keep your business and your life moving forward.
They begin by looking at the importance of setting priorities and improving by 1% every day, as well as the dangers of the 'all or nothing' attitude. They then explore our relationship with time, offer some ideas on how to manage it, and emphasize the power of having the proper mindset toward your work and your systems. The concepts of gratitude, failure, plugging the holes in your boat, and Net Forward Energy Ratio are also discussed just before Matt proposes another one of his challenges, and they both offer some book recommendations. Whether you're an experienced agent who's been unable to keep up with your systems, or you're new to the profession and are just trying to figure out how to get up and going in this unique marketplace, Matt and Garrett have the advice to get you on track and moving forward.
