The Grant Wise Show Turning Adversity into Triumph in Real Estate: The Long Doan Story
Today, we’re diving into an incredible journey of resilience and transformation with our special guest, Long Doan, CEO of Realty Group and a truly inspirational figure. Long’s life story is nothing short of extraordinary—Long will talk about escaping from Vietnam, surviving as a refugee, and rising to the heights of business leadership.
Long Doan’s life began in Vietnam, where his parents were teachers. Things took a tough turn when, after the Vietnam War in 1975, the new government started to lock up people who thought independently, like Long’s dad. At just eight years old and with his dad taken away, Long had to step up and take care of his mom and two little brothers. This was a big job for a kid, and he didn’t get to see his dad again until he was all grown up at 32. Those early years were hard, but they made Long into the strong person that he is today.
Long Doan is recognized as the CEO of Realty Group, a highly successful real estate organization based in Minneapolis. Under Long’s leadership, Realty Group has flourished, with roughly 750 agents across three states. Additionally, Long Doan has earned considerable praise for his company’s impressive growth and for his exceptional leadership abilities.
Our conversation will teach you the power of mindset and choice in the face of adversity, where Long insists on being a victor, not a victim.
Together, we dive into the pivotal role habits, rituals, and the slow yet steady adoption of beliefs play in forging success. Long’s insights into learning through listening, imitating, and reflecting will provide invaluable lessons for us all on growth and achieving goals.
I’ll also share the essence of starting simple with fitness routines and the impact of coaching while underscoring the vitality of action over intention, and the effect of reverse engineering your aspirations.
So, buckle up for this energizing conversation that’s sure to spark a fire within you. Prepare to take that next crucial step toward your dreams, and remember, it’s about progress, one micro step at a time.
