A Real Estate Podcast With Industry Influencers, Producers & Titans
This one mindset shift changed the way I look at agent attractionI've been in the backend of some of the largest real estate organizations and they all have one thing in commonIt's really simple actually and most people make it more difficult then it should beThe main goal is to add value and expect nothing in returnThis is what I believe recruiting is…Forcing the opportunity in everyone you seeReaching out one time and pitching and if they aren't interested never reaching out againAnd maybe, just maybe it isn't the right time for themHere is what agent attraction looks likeAdding value and expecting nothing in returnThink about it…Ultimately their decision to partner or not is completely out of my controlThe only thing we are in control of is the amount of value we're adding to their livesWhen you do this… the right agents reach out and are ready to join you
There was a time in my life where I was giving up on myselfWhere I thought I'd get a job I hateAnd just do that and come “home” every dayBeing here in McKinney TexasMeeting new people who are just badassesSpeaking on stage and getting to share part of my storyCollaborating with my friends I've gotten to know in this industryAnd now I get to walk around this city I've never been and just soak it inWorking with clients all over the world is something I believe I've taken for grantedIt's a privilege to serve these amazing people and help share their story and make the world a better place

Let's get some takeaways from the event!…
When people say to stop working so hardAnd I think I'd work twice as hard to do things like this fasterPeople call you crazy until it works… then you're a genius
No one's coming to get your ass out of bed this morningNo one's coming to make you chase your dreamsThis video might do it today, but what about tomorrow and the next day?Books, audio books, people to hold me accountable never got me to get out of bed consistentlyIt's the sheer will and drive to better myself and win the day
Most people won't see the visionBut that doesn't mean you stop it don't take actionLet's take this house for exampleWe're still filling it as we goWe have beds coming down, desks, glass white boards and TV'sWe just ordered our wall artwork to fill up some of the spaceEveryone's first question “well how are you going to fill it?”I'm going to fill it because I'm committed to doing so and have a vision which I will bring to life
I've driven by this lake at least 10 times nowBut this was the first time I really looked at itSince this family took time out of their day just to take it in it got me thinkingWhat am I not seeing that is so great and am I taking the time to really look at the beauty around meAnd it got me thinking where else in life I'm doing this
There was a time when I wasn't getting to where I want to in lifeAnd this simple exercise helped me get on the right pathI'd make two lists of threeThere people I should spend more time withAnd three people I should spend less time withAnd once I wrote it down it became real
I hear this all the time“I just don't have enough time in the day to shoot video”Well here's the two main reasons why that's trueYou're not following a simple enough processOr you spend too much damn time consuming videos
Until nowGrant Cardone talks about having such raving fans that when you call with something new that you're passionate about they're ready to go before going into detailsI'm rolling out a COMPLETE done for you event and brand building workshop complete with a stay here at the high rise, two days at my content house and much moreWe have it priced at $5,000 and before I went passed that I had two people jump and get startedIt's inspired me to add more and over deliver and get them our VIP package at our next event includedI love working with committed and passionate people
There was a time in my life I wasn't able to say thisI was coasting and just ending up in random places and thinkHow the hell did I get thereAnd the reason I love my life so muchIs because I created it with intention
Someone recently hit my with the “who do you think you are” because of my postsThe new house and the attention I knew the haters would comeAnd it made me think..Who am I?I sold everything I had to start my businessI worked for free to prove my worthI started a non profit to save children from child traffickingI work with some of the biggest names in real estateSo my answer wasI'm motherf***** Nick Krem
It can take me living at my parents 3.5 -4 years agoTo now living in this gated lake communityThis change does not happen without massive actionIt does not happen without betting on myselfI can't wait to share the vision we have for this new placeIt's going to change the way video and real estate are done
This trip we felt all the loveWhat a great event Chris Wendt put on with Bankers CupAnd it was great to feel all the support from everyone who saw me grow here in ClevelandI appreciate all of you!
I literally ran out of ink in my pen taking notes hereI'm not going to instantly implement everything written downWhat I noticed is we get event high and want to go back and change everythingWhat happens after that is we end up going back to doing our usual routine a month or two laterThat's why I take my notes, store it in my brain, and have 2-3 things I'm going to actively do moving forward
When Mike Russo walks out of a room and commits to 5-7 videos a week.. we're in the right room
Leaving my beliefs at the doorThe box and mindset I'm in are constantly changingListening to Coach Michael Burt for two hours and I know when I go in there with an open mind he's going to fill it with knowledgeThe only way he can fill it.. is if my cup is empty
This is where legends are madeWeekends and what we spend our time and focus on can make or break your goalsThe question we have to ask ourselves is this…Am I more excited by my goals or going out?#WinTheDay
This one is for all my weekend warriors!Putting in the work when the world goes out and gets distractedWhen people say “lazy Sunday” we say perfect time to get ahead
Man this One Big Fire in Honey Badger Nation with eXp is SO BIG and SO HOTAnd it's because of the culture we have hereThe 7,000+ honey badgers around the world embrace the culture and truly act out of abundanceBeing surrounded by friends and business partners that offer the support they do gives me the confidence and belief that I can do anything
They printed billions of dollars these past few years aloneThe only thing there is a shortage of the mindset
I was going to do this video later in the day until I read this quoteIt spoke to me because I know I used to be stuck in my past“No one's been through what I have”“You don't know what I've been through”And I found myself reliving my past day by day as I retold my past afflictionsFor me that was an excuse to act or take no action on bettering my futureAnd I lost sight of the greatness that still was inside me
I can get behind this one all dayThere is no such thing as too busyWe either get things done and MAKE time for what's important or we don'tI'm big on decision making filters and in order to have those filters I need to be clear on my purposeOnce the purpose is clear I know what brings me closer or further awaySo now I only do things that fulfill my purpose
The weekend just passed… what did you do with your time?It's the night before the new week… staying up for the game or getting some sleep?I'm going to sleep.. let's #WinTheDay
This is why it's so important to define our purpose and our “why”Without that being clearly defined I wouldn't feel the urgency to accomplish my goalsIf I didn't have my goal of doing a quote a day I sure as hell wouldn't be surrounded by these birdsP.S. yes these birds still are my weird fear

It's all the magical moments we've been able to crest together in LIFEIt's being inspired so much by Rebecca Soto and Josue Soto story that we write a book together and share their story with the worldIt's Veronica Figueroa inviting me ober when Sekou Pyle was in town and having a real chat about growth and how it effects our friendship and supporting each other's lifeIt's going to masterminds in Key West and going to Sloppy Joes with Jay Kinder and the crewIt's traveling to Phoenix and spending a day at the Forum with the amazing team Chuck and Angela Fazio built and enjoying some live musicIt's going to Put N Bay every year with Albie Stasek and Andrew Gaydosh and hanging out at Mojito BayBeing a Honey Badger opens up the possibility to have these magical moments all across the world and so much moreAnd through all of that support each other in business and completely open the playbook to help each other grow
Never seek balance… seek extraordinary - Grant Cardone…
Real estate agents be ready to be bagging groceries in the next year or two if you don't do this…
Don't overthink this oneWe all know whether we are taking massive action or just enough to get by #WinTheDay
This one hits home because I remember starting my business, selling everything I had and just releasing people from my lifeIt was the first time I truly bet on myself and decided to say fuck what people think about meIf I'm not happy and don't surround myself with people who appreciate me for who I am then I don't want itThe bottom allowed me to be my authentic self and only focus on what adds value to my life

Too many times we look for that instant gratificationWhere we worked a little harder and think we deserve somethingBeing at this boot camp and seeing how long Grant had to work his ass off before seeing the START of his growth has shown me somethingThe work leads the way.. the payment follows
It will not be the most skilled agent that winsIt will not be the most experiencedIt will be the agent who is willing to show their face on video and adaptI get it… most of y'all didn't get into the business to shoot video and use social mediaThat's what I'm gotI help agents by making video and social media SIMPLE AND IMPLEMENTABLEAlign yourself with someone like meThe homeowner deserves to work with the best skilled agent and you deserve to work with the best skilled person to take your business virtualCheck the link below to see how you can partner with me
Talking about what it means to support someoneJust think about how difficult we are as individualsAnd then the strength it would take for someone to be truly supportiveIt truly is a super power
I'm walking over to the boot camp over an hour early to make sure we get a good seat in the frontAnd it got me thinking…Last night after the conference we spent our night masterminding on what we just learnedAnd were in bed by 9 o'clock!Yes that is possible at these events But everyone I was with was on the same page same schedule and back to it today
But my business partner leaned over to my and told me a crazy stat about our businessWe sent out over 1,000,000 emails last yearAs we learned here at Grant Cardone boot camp just soaking in the valueIt's not the best product that wins… it's the best known productMy goal is to break over 2.5 million emails this year
About once a week he'd take me out to dinner somewhereI didn't know it at the time but these were truly the first lessons I got in personal developmentWe'd talk about the business and what I wanted to do with lifeAnd I'll never forget one thing he told me…If you're going to bet on anything… bet on yourselfThose words stuck with me over the yearsPresent-day… I have my own business in 13 countries and 50 statesAnd I'm on my way to Miami to have a 3-day boot camp with Grant Cardone to continue to invest and bet on myself
The ones willing to stay committed on the weekendsWhile the rest of the world tells you to party and asks you to join them in taking a breakThe weekend warrior continues working on hitting their goals
I came out to Denver to share that opportunity with some like minded agentsAnd now I have the rest of the day to myselfI'll be hitting some local places to eatRiding my scooter to great views like thisAnd doing whatever brings me joy
I used to think we all had to wait our turnWe had to be “called up” to the big leaguesSomeone had to let us inThat's the biggest load of crapThe biggest ah ha I had was in Key West when I heard all of the biggest names in the country get vulnerableAnd it hit me… they're human just like me and if they can do it so can II left there with the belief that I could do anything and haven't looked back sinceHistory rewards the bold
These last couple weeks I've been doing some self reflection and taking a look at who I'm with and I noticed a couple thingsFrom the outside the people I've grown with have all the accolades, money and cloutBut that's not why we grow and partner togetherIt's the belief that we all want to become the best possible humanIt's the belief that we are stronger togetherIt's the belief that our vulnerability will help othersIt's the belief that together we can change the worldOur core values and beliefs are stronger than any dollar sign
Many will say Veronica Figueroa is fearless but I know that's not trueBut with her SHE DOES IT ANYWAYS and that's even more badass and why she is a hero to meShe never backs down even when all the odds are against herShe pushes herself everyday and which challenges me do it tooIf y'all didn't know… now you know who the Queen of real estate is The Veronica Figueroa
