Last time I visited my grandparents in Miama Beach (on the Intercoastal, near the big old navy outlet) I stumbled into a few open houses in the "several million $$" price range. WOW - Nice inventory. Let me know the next time you have a waterfront open house - I'll schedule some vacation time around it. Put a few addresses up on your grattitude vision board, and it'll be all the sooner!

It brings our goals into focus. Great post! Benjamin, I love vision boards and I truly believe that putting our goals as specifically as possible on the board with pictures will help achieve them.

Your method is so much better and much more precise. I've actually been doing it with my Luxury picks in my blog. I picture me selling those babies and know I'll be there soon - the calls are coming in. It's all about focus.

Not unlike a lot of other people, I'm sure, I never took the time to really define what my goals were. My first year in business, I wrote them down ... and I accomplished every one. I think seeing them in front of me every time I opened that Excel spreadsheet I had them saved in motivated me, and it became a challenge to see which ones I could check off the list. Year two, same thing. Years three through five, I got away from them a bit. But they're going to be coming back. Loved hearing what motivates you, and it in turn motivated me. Just another reason why I read blogs. Nice job, Benjamin. Not unlike a lot of other people, I’m sure, I never took the time to really define what my goals were.

But I did have some clear goals when I was a young agent. And having clear goals means knowing where you want to go. If you know where oyu want to go, I believe you'll get there. :-) Benjamin;
