Fulfill Your Destiny in the Real Estate Business
Reflection plays an important role in the process of goal setting and execution in the real estate business. When you write your goals down from your head instead of your heart, you might be able to think them into existence relatively quickly, but they may not be anchored in what truly matters to you today- your values and your priorities. Additionally, when we think about our goals, we often think of what we “should” do based on what we did last year, or what we think is realistic, or probable, and before long, the negative voices in our head drown them out and prevent us from pursuing what we really want out of life and business! In this episode of Pursuing Freedom, we look at reflection as a means of overcoming your limiting beliefs and self-doubt to fulfill the destiny that is available to you.
Drown Out the Negativity
So many of us are meant for more, and we have this intuition in our hearts that it is achievable. It can be anything! Whether it’s more growth in our business, more time with our families, or anything else, we have the power to tune into our heart’s knowing, our intuition, and push out the negative voices in our heads. Reflection is a powerful tool in the real estate business. It is about looking back and asking yourself questions about the relationships you’ve formed, the skills you’ve developed, and the experiences you’ve had. It enables you to look at the progress you’ve made on the goals you set, and it helps you identify energy-draining factors that are preventing you from getting to the next level.
Magnetize the Results You Seek
Reflection doesn’t have to be something you save for business planning season. In reality, it should be something you do every day in the real estate business! The power of reflection allows you to shift your energy, mindset, emotion, and belief system from the negative into the positive, which ultimately enables you to tap into what matters in your life TODAY! Then, you can magnetize the very results you are seeking and move away from that feeling of chasing success. We’re not going to hit our goals by running the hamster wheel and checking boxes. Reflection will help you break out of the mundane and into greatness!
