I am Starting to have a Mantra for the Week (Because Positive Thinking WORKS!)

MANTRA: "The more people I help with moving, the more that money comes easily and abundantly. I will help 2-3 people this week with their real estate needs."

Well, I have been (slightly) frustrated for the month of February, so decided I needed to brighten up my attitude. For February, while I have been extremely busy, I noticed (and said) that all "these deals have taken twice as long and been twice as hard" as usual; so, of course, that's what I got.

For this month of March, I have restructured my thoughts to the positive and the best I could come up with for the first and second week of March was "In order to help more people with their real estate transactions, I will schedule 4-5 appointments per week." I typically schedule 1-3 listing appointments and 1-2 buyer appointments per week, so usually, I meet with 2-5 people ANYWAY who want to buy or sell property. I figured 1 or 2 more people per week wouldn't be difficult. Actually, I really tried to think meeting with 4-5 people per week would be EASY, which puts a more positive spin on it.

Guess what? I met with 4 people/couples each week. Some chose to work with me, some chose not to work with me, some COULDN'T work with me due to various reasons (not the right time to move, poor credit, marital issues, etc.). I chose to work with some of them; some--not so much. Then, I showed some property and wrote only one contract for some Buyers that ultimately didn't go anywhere (a short sale).

Well, last week, since I have been thinking positively, for THIS week, I have scheduled 4 Buyer meetings/initial consultations and have a listing appointment tomorrow afternoon. It's all due to the power of positive thinking!

So, this week, my MANTRA is "The more people I help with moving, the more that money comes easily and abundantly."
