The real estate market is changing right under our feet. Some may even use the word shifting. In the book Shift written by Gary Keller tactic 1 is titled Get Real, Get Right. This refers to the mental shift that must happen as things around us change. If you’re feeling frustrated by changes in the market, getting real may be exactly what the doctor ordered. Otherwise you’re just screaming at the hurricane.
Having a great attitude and positive outlook is easy when things are great. Your attitude when things are tough and not going as planned is what separates those who win and those who do not. Are you pessimistic, optimistic, or realistic about the current market? When you’re real and right you have the clearest picture of what is to come and how to find opportunities. I’d challenge each of you to create some thinking time on the current market. Thinking time is time 100% dedicated to THINKING on a specific topic. No distraction, no phone, no music, just you locked in a quiet room with your thoughts. Really allow yourself to process what is going on and form an opinion around the best course of action. The market has already changed we just haven’t seen the implications of the change yet. It’s time to get real and get right so you aren’t left behind.
