Do NOT be a hamster on a wheel !!!! BOLD LAW for Wednesday is... " Don't mistake movement for achievement "
A hamster on a wheel is sprinting hard and burning calories...but goes nowhere ! I suppose if we were in the same environment , we would have to do the same to keep from going insane ? The hamster has no choice but you do !
There is NO glory in being like the hamster...the epitome of movement without achievement. You can change everything by changing your keystone habits. Yes, you still have to grind it out every day but make sure that the grinding you choose to do actually leads you to where you want to go. It may be gradual and it may be very incremental but , compared to the hamster on the wheel , at least you have made progress and the scenery is a little different when you're done at the end of the day !
I would rather fail and fall forward 100 straight days versus being on a wheel that goes nowhere . As I stated the other day , we all know people who are caught up in the " busy-ness " of real estate. they are constantly doing hundreds of tasks everyday but they are not TALKING to people who could be clients ! They are not involved in the BUSINESS of real estate. The BUSINESS of real estate is about achievement , not movement.
Don't get caught up in the endless " to - do " lists...that's running on a wheel...do it AFTER you have done your three hours of lead generation, your follow up, your negotiating contracts, your going on appointments and your script practice. Those activities are achievement and will reward you financially. Completing a " to do " list may satisfy you but it does not pay well, and who do you know that EVER completes a to do list ?
Movement or achievement , it's your choice...
