The last couple of weeks, I’ve met with 127 loan officers in small groups of about 15 or so each day for around 10 hours each day…
… and a few amazing challenges and resulting victories stood out.
The first thing is, there’s a lot of LOs that are being challenged by their own brain and “negative thoughts”.
I’ve had to deal with that myself in the past and found a way to totally overcome it, resulting in epic growth in my mortgage business and in my income, all while enjoying the ride even more.
Step 1: Turn off all the news. Nothing is gained from it, and it’s all negative. It absolutely poisons our minds and it can be a poisonous addiction. Very very very harmful to our brain and then overflows to our actions… or lack thereof.
Step 2: Talk to yourself… OUT LOUD.
Yep, there it is, my dirty little secret (ok, one of them).
Every morning and every evening I talk out loud to myself with a simple little script that I’m going to share with you right now.
The results of this have been dramatic, even if it sounds a little weird, and even if I didn’t believe what I was saying out loud in the beginning.
But I kept at it. Twice a day. At first hiding in my closet so the Lovely Mrs. White wouldn’t think I was crazy…
… But then I came out of the closet, and today I do this while standing on my doc lakeside every morning, and every evening.
Just try it for 30 days, don’t miss a day, and reach back out to me and let me know how it worked for you.
Here it is:
“I can’t always control my daily results, but if I follow the process, the law of averages will play out and I will have epic results.
I can get control over my time and life by changing the way I think, work, and deal with daily responsibilities.
I can get control over my tasks and activities only to the degree that I stop doing some things and start doing the few activities that really make the difference.
I can overcome my fear of rejection and call reluctance by feeling the fear and doing it anyway.
It’s only when I do those things that it results in epic success for myself which results in epic success for my family, which leads to epic success and contributions to my community.
I am worthy of great success that WILL result when I push through the fear BEFORE I have the confidence to do it.
My family and my community are counting on my time and financial support and I am a person of integrity and the highest character that they can count on me to do my part, even when I’m afraid… I’ll do it anyway.”
That’s it, and there you go.
I have found that the courage and the confidence comes AFTER I do something, never before.
Hey, thanks to those of you that honored me by meeting with me at my house the last few days, and for the group that met me in Phoenix. You are changing our industry by discovering the small tweaks that are creating massive breakthroughs for you.
While most are curled up in the fetal position “waiting for things to change”, you are stepping up to the plate and “Making Things Change”. Thanks for doing what you do.
If you didn’t make it, or weren’t invited this last time, when you are ready to see if we have room for you at the next small group, just click here and talk to someone on my team to see what we need to do to make that happen.
Thanks for allowing me to be a part of your world. It’s a true honor. Really.
