Do you know what to say "yes" to and what to say "no" to? In this episode, Garrett discusses two main points from the book Essentialism by Greg McKeown. The first point is about making decisions based on whether something is a 'heck yes' or not. Garrett encourages listeners to prioritize their time and say no to things that are not a strong yes. The second point is about zero-based scheduling, where Garrett advises starting from scratch and intentionally choosing what to include in the schedule. He emphasizes the importance of being intentional with time and not letting pride or laziness dictate the schedule.TakeawaysPrioritize your time and say no to things that are not a 'heck yes'Start from scratch when scheduling and intentionally choose what to includeDon't let pride or laziness dictate your scheduleChapters00:00 Making Time for What Matters: The 'Heck Yes' Principle13:53 Starting from Scratch: Zero-Based Scheduling17:36 Overcoming Pride and Laziness in Scheduling⭐️ Rate & Review:If this episode challenged or encouraged you, leave a 5-star review and share it with another Christian agent who needs to hear this message.

What if building your legacy started with just one conversation—and just one agent?In this episode, I share the story of a talented agent I had the privilege of mentoring over the last six years. She was a powerhouse—respected, consistent, and truly gifted at closing deals. But after her unexpected passing, one question haunted me: What if she had just sponsored one agent?This isn't a pitch. This is a wake-up call.Whether you're at eXp Realty or another brokerage, this video explores how the revenue share model—done right—can offer something far greater than income: a lasting legacy.

If they grow, I grow.” Authenticity, Transparency, and Grit Spring doesn't sugarcoat the journey.

The real estate industry has conditioned us to tie our worth to production. We chase closings, crave recognition, and ride the emotional rollercoaster of the next lead. But here's the truth: you are not your numbers. You're not your commission. You're not your latest scoreboard. You are a child of God. Your identity was secure long before you ever sold a house. Real estate is what you do—not who you are.EPISODE: Why You're Still Hustling Like It's 2016Resources & Opportunities:
