Yesterday 37 of our RE/MAX chay realty Sales Reps. attended the annual Sales Rally hosted by RE/MAX Ontario Atlantic. The 2 day event welcomed over 5000 people and included keynote speakers specializing in teaching, motivating, and especially challenging us all to become better (Keep in mind, RE/MAX agents are already collectively recognized as being the best at in our industry so the momentum generated from our Sales Rallys tend to be staggering.)
At any rate, one of the guest speakers, Tom Ferry delivered a message about 'Becoming the Person Who Can Have it All'. What interested me most was his advice about avoiding the 4 Addictions. In my role as a 'problem solving' Broker I've witnessed his truths many times.
Avoiding these 4 Addictions will increase your productivity (of course these readily apply to life as well)
1. Avoid the addiction to the opinions of other people
the agent with the full page ads, flashy car and negative bank balance comes to mind
2. Avoid addiction to drama
take the 'no drama challenge' in 2010 and simply see things as they are
3. Avoid addiction to the past
this happens because the past is safe, "I remember when.." Embrace change - embrace the future
4. Avoid the addiction to worry
waking in the night with worry, won't solve the next day's problem - get some sleep so you can
think clearly in the morning. Always try to take things in stride with a level view.
I think you'll agree that these 4 simple rules can certainly be applied to everyday life. I encourage you to keep these within your sights on a daily basis as a gentle reminder or perhaps a refocus tool.
