We need to be open to listening to others and encouraging them to provide feedback so that we have all the resources we need in order to make the best decision we can.If you want to be more effective, you've got to take care of yourself. Execute common sense practices consistently and you'll be better prepared to face the day.Build a team and delegate your tasks. Have at least one other person who could do the tasks that take your time and attention from more important things. Learn to lead with humility and empathy, be there with your team, and strive to understand and consider their needs while also doing your best to serve your clients and give value. “The 2022 learning lesson has been how to be truly empathetic, and try to help individuals navigate regardless of where they are. Empathy is something that we need to carry away - as we push into 2023.” - Jodi HallConnect with Jodi Hall:Website: http://www.nmbnow.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jodi-hall Connect with Steve and Jason:LinkedIn: Jason or SteveWebsite: Rewire, Inc.: Transformed Thinking Email: grow@rewireinc.comShow notes by Podcastologist: Justine TallaAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

Thank you for the support so far on this podcast! I have been loving all of your feedback! We have big things coming! With that being said, I had the pleasure of interviewing Armando Tam on this episode!

In his role as President of The Mortgage Collaborative (TMC), Rich's primary responsibility is to be fully engaged and to develop the framework to plan, direct, and coordinate all financial, operational, and cultural objectives of TMC's national network of lender members and preferred partners. And to provide effective and satisfactory leadership, ensuring impactful benefits and services to its members and partners, while meeting financial and operational goals and objectives In this episode Jason and Rich discuss:Pouring yourself into something newRecognizing your team members Gatekeeping new members to ensure alignmentUtilizing technology to serve clients better Key Takeaways: If things are getting tedious and repetitive and what you do doesn't give you any joy anymore, then maybe it's time for a change. Don't be afraid to fail or take risks.Believe in people. It takes more than a good idea to create a successful project. Appreciate and recognize the people that help you and your business succeed. The best way to make use of everybody's time is to make sure there's alignment in terms of intention and values. There's nothing more important than the caliber and the intent of the people.Hire a few highly effective people and then automate a good fraction of the process. Utilizing new technology and automation is essential for making the user experience smoother and easier. “My mindset at the end of the day was if the Mortgage Collaborative does not succeed, it won't be because of my effort. I'm gonna pour everything I am into this and my hope is that even if it fails, people will see that.” - Rich Swerbinsky Connect with Rich Swerbinsky:Website: www.mortgagecollaborative.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/richardswerbinskyEmail: rswerbinsky@mtgcoop.com Connect with Steve and Jason:LinkedIn: Jason or SteveWebsite: Rewire, Inc.: Transformed Thinking Email: grow@rewireinc.com Show notes by Podcastologist: Justine TallaAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

Starting in sales in 1987 as an insurance agent for New York Life, Fobby moved into the mortgage industry in 1994. In 2000 he co-founded Horizon Mortgage Corp. Since 2013, Fobby has helped multiple lenders create winning teams of mortgage professionals. Fobby's goal has always been on profitable loan volume rather than just loan volume. Fobby is the national sales manager for First Option Mortgage while hosting Laugh, Lend & Eat the podcast. In 2021, Fobby was awarded Housingwires's Insider's Award, as well as being a two-time recipient of "The 40 Greatest Names in the Mortgage Industry" issued by The Mortgage Collaborative. In this episode Steve and Fobby discuss:Deeper than just the numbers Starting each day with gratitude Being spiritual yet realistic Creating insights out of insights Key Takeaways: Go beyond the numbers, think about what's really going to make you happy. Stop and take a moment to reflect because you'll find out eventually, that none of these numbers are gonna make you happy. Start each day with gratitude, fill every second of it with contentment, and live in the present moment. You don't have to be living in isolation away from civilization in order to experience a spiritual moment. You can be in the city, with a job, and still be mindful, spiritual and content. People will find their own meaning in what you put out there. They might be able to learn your principles, but the best case scenario is for them to also create their own insights out of your insights. “I remember clearly my dad saying ‘you know, you can meditate a lot more relaxingly if the bill collectors aren't calling your phone all the time'... there's a balancing act between the spiritual life and the real life..” - Fobby Naghmi Check out Fobby's book, “Falling Forward, Mishaps on the Road to Happiness” by clicking here: https://www.amazon.com/Falling-Forward-Mishaps-Road-Happiness-ebook/dp/B09JFJ2LYB Connect with Fobby Naghmi:Website: https://myfirstoption.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/fobby/Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/laugh-lend-and-eat/id1506984759 Connect with Steve and Jason:LinkedIn: Jason or SteveWebsite: Rewire, Inc.: Transformed Thinking Email: grow@rewireinc.com Show notes by Podcastologist: Justine TallaAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.
