Episode 142: Mastering the ‘Perfect 168’: How Quintavius Burdette Balances Life and Success

In this week's episode of "GRIT: The Real Estate Growth Mindset," host Brian Charlesworth sits down with Quintavius Burdette, a top-performing real estate agent who’s breaking records and defying the odds, and who recently made waves on Survivor. From humble beginnings in Mississippi, Q, as he is known, has made a name for himself in the real estate industry by selling over 900 homes in his first five years.

Q shares his incredible journey, from growing up in a family of 17 to choosing a path in real estate after realizing that corporate life wasn’t for him. He discusses the importance of hard work, setting public goals, and how his relentless drive led him to earn over $500,000 in his first year as a real estate agent.

The conversation also dives into Q’s innovative strategies, including targeting property owners with multiple homes and focusing on the often-overlooked lower-end market. These approaches allowed him to complete more transactions in less time, setting him apart from his peers.

Quintavius doesn’t stop there. He reveals how he manages his time, working just 2-3 hours a day, yet still pulling in significant income while maintaining a balanced life. His philosophy on time management dubbed the “Perfect 168,” is all about optimizing the 168 hours everyone has each week to achieve both personal and professional success.
