322: Make Small Changes for Big Results in your Real Estate Business
from Super Agents Live- Selling Real Estate · host Toby Salgado
Today has been one of those days. My alarm clock didn't go off---I spilled coffee all over myself in the car---dropped my kid off late and in the bathroom realized there was no toilet paper just when I needed it. Yeah---that was gross but, its those kind of days that we just need a mulligan. We need a redo ---a fresh start. For me---the New Year is new start—fresh beginnings. It's the little things that can have the greatest impact. A really smart guy once told me that if I could get just 1% better each day---at the end of the year I would be 365% better----that stuck with me. I'm trying to find the little things I can change. The things I can do right now---today. That might be something personal like doing 25 pushups today or something that impacts me financially like changing the coverage on my auto policies. I just did that and saved about 1200 bucks a year----1200 dollars isn't going to change my life but, it all matters. How about you? What is something structural that you can change today? What is something that you can change this week or this month that will have a positive impact? I'm not talking about making new years resolutions-----Im talking about taking action right now. Do something in the next hour-----order some teeth whitening gel, cancel that online marketing contract or make that phone call that you have been putting off. How can you get 1% better today? How can you do just 1% more? What can you be just 1% different than everyone else? 1% better or 1% different is easy right? If its that easy why aren't most people focusing on making these micro changes. Let me illustrate. If I gave you the choice of getting 1 million dollars today or a magic penny that doubled everyday-----which would you choose? Most would take the million over the penny but, that magic penny that doubles is actually worth 1.3 million on day 28 and a little over 5 million on day 30. This is the power of compounding interest. Now that you understand the power of small and incremental change----let me ask you again----what can you change today? Stay tuned—tomorrow we are going to talk about some of the places we can find some easy wins and set us up for a strong year.
