About 30 minutes before our Live Webinar kicked off, I watched as Agents and Brokers eagerly began entering our Zoom Room - many of them arriving fully prepared with printed handouts in hand and questions at the ready. As I looked into the eyes of these determined, Ambitious Professionals, the hunger for knowledge and success was unmistakable. Yet, at that moment, I was reminded of a truth I have learned over many decades of training and coaching: Knowledge alone isn't enough. Real Estate Success is about Mindset, it is about Discipline, and most importantly, it is about Taking Action

Here is a link to a video recording of our Apr 17th Live Webinar - Please consider the accompanying Handout:  

The Shift that Changes Everything: Your Mindset: Many agents start their day hoping the phone will ring, hoping listings will somehow magically appear. But you are Not just "many agents." You are a listing agent. Say it aloud, right now if you can:

"I am a Listing Agent." 

This simple affirmation is powerful because it changes how you perceive yourself and your work. It moves you from the passive role of order-taking into the active, engaged mindset of someone who creates opportunities rather than waiting for them. 

Understanding the Reality of the Current Market: In our session, we explored the truth about today's Real Estate landscape. Yes, the market has shifted. Listings in North America dropped from about 5 million annually pre-COVID to around 4 million in recent years. But here's the key insight: listings didn't vanish - they simply became more challenging to secure. 

Your Daily Discipline Shapes Your Success: During the webinar, I emphasized that Real Estate Success is not accidental. It is produced through consistent, disciplined action. Here’s your Minimum Daily Disciplined Structure

  • 35–45 minutes: Focus on your existing business - client follow-ups and transaction management. 

  • 35–45 minutes: Prospect for new business. Make calls, door-knock, and engage actively. 

  • 35–45 minutes: Nurture your Sphere of Influence, ensuring you remain top-of-mind for referrals. 

Remember, Discipline isn’t glamorous, but it is foundational. It’s the key to moving from dreaming big to achieving big. 

Prospecting: The Heartbeat of a True Listing Agent: Prospecting isn’t comfortable. It pushes you out of your comfort zone. But as I shared during the webinar, the rewards go to those who embrace discomfort. Real estate is a numbers game: Consistently reaching out to at least 15–20 contacts per day puts you on a path toward securing valuable listing appointments. Here's the truth: If you embrace prospecting, you will succeed. Period. 

Practical Intelligence: Mastering Your Conversations: During the session, we tackled the concept of practical intelligence. It’s not just memorizing scripts—it’s crafting meaningful conversations.

  • Know What to say.

  • Know Who to say it to.

  • Know When to say it.

  • Know How to say it for maximum impact.

Scripts are powerful, but only when adapted in your authentic voice. Your playbook - your collection of scripts and dialogues - should reflect who you truly are.
