Dreams


Most of you came into the Real Estate business because of a dream of leading a better life. Or maybe it was to take control of your life. Whatever your dream, it’s time to move forward. What does moving forward really mean? Trust me moving forward is the most rewarding experience, but it is not for the faint of heart. So here is the plain truth.

Moving forward is easy when the scoreboard is in your favor. The real challenge comes, and it will, when you are not ahead anymore. Please understand this, the champions in life move forward in the presence of fear, NOT in the absence of it. It is easy to be optimistic and brave when you have the opponent on the run. It is easy when the checking account has a big balance. It makes life easy; it makes us brave and bold. But in life and especially in the business world, which you are now a part of, it will not always be easy. Do what the champions do, move forward in spite of fear. Champions understand that fear is natural, they know it is only a feeling and they have learned to override and control their natural fears and move forward. Learn to do the same and you will catch your dream.

The dream that got you into this business comes with a price. Believe me there are NO FREE dreams in life, they all cost something. Some of you may be surprised, even shocked to learn this, but it’s true. Most people live life just by following the person in front of them. Champions lead. Do what they do…stop following, break away, and understand that you will have to invest time, money and your resources. It is tough and it means sacrifice, but that’s what it takes for your dream to come true. What champions don’t sacrifice?

I leave you with a quote, “Do all that is in your heart. Do as you wish. Behold I am with you heart and soul.” 1 Samuel 14:7

Develop a Champions Passion and it all becomes easier.

I have shared this lesson with many of my associates which was taught by, Pastor Troy Gramling of Flamingo Road Church a few years ago.
