5 Part Motivation Series - The Real Estate Toolbox University Blog

What motivates you? 
My favorite thinking time is in the car. We do so much driving when we sell real estate
- to and from appointments, previewing properties. Perfect time to think. I would like you to spend some time during the next a day or two examining your sources of motivation. 
 
Some people are motivated because they must simply earn a living or they are driven to reach their goals. Others are simply fed up with the lack of success. Sometimes people are motivated simply because they have a burning desire to succeed. If you are motivated because you are sick and tired of being sick and tired or must recover from some financial problems, you are not alone….But think deeper. What is the underlying core of your motivation? Why are you doing what are you doing? What is the true source of your satisfaction? If you are working to earn money - what will you do with your life once you get comfortable enough to earn more than you living? And if you want to be the number one, what is in it for you? Why is this so important?
 
Some people are in the real estate  business because they like to help others and they get an enormous sense of accomplishment simply from making other people more comfortable, even happy. How about you? If being a contributor is not a major motivator for you, you need to awaken in yourself that need to help others. Sharing and giving.
 
To build your business by attraction you need to be abundance-oriented. You need to believe that the more you give, the more there will be for you - not less. I know that this might be a difficult call for an average real estate agent, surrounded by people who are scarcity-oriented.
 
Because only that will allow you to reach the level of lasting success. Being a giver first - then the taker. All people who succeed in the long run are leaders, driven by the need to improve lives of others. 
 
If you are not yet on that level, you need to grow before you will be able to grow your business. It is very important that you work on your self-development and become less self-centered.
 
My simple formula for success will follow over the next 5 or 6 Days so be sure to check back or subscribe to one of our RSS feeds. It works like a charm, guaranteed!
