It's Been A Great Winter

If you are going to be a successful real estate agent you are going to have to learn that things are usually opposite of what people think. Let me give you an example.

When I first started real estate in Olathe, Kansas it was still a seller's market. So naturally, everyone thought I was making more money faster than I really was. Now, everyone thinks the market is terrible. Well, I've made more money (this isn't bragging...remember, you want to know what it's like to be a real estate agent) in the last 3 months than I used to make in a year at any other profession.

The economy won't dictate your success. The housing market won't dictate your success. Fox News or CNN will not dictate your success. Or your failures.

When you are a real estate agent, you are self-employed. You dictate your success. Or failure.
