I can’t believe it’s already happening… again.

I was on a Zoom meeting on Thursday, and they were already talking about goal setting for 2025. 
 
Holy crap, I can’t believe it’s approaching that time of year again… everyone’s gearing up to set those big “goals” for next year.  
 
Here’s the reality: most people set these same goals every January, just like they did the year before…and the year before that.  
 
And guess what?  
 
They’re no further ahead today than when they first started this whole “goal-setting ritual.” 
 

For the past 25 years, I do things differently.  
 
I’m not about “wishful thinking” or lofty goals.  No ma’am, no sir! 
 
Instead, I map out real plans with concrete steps and deadlines that get you results. 
 

Let me share a story. 
 
Brian Fenlon struggled with his schedule and commitment. After a Plan Map Out, he went from 5 deals a month to 15 in just 8 weeks, including new realtor referrals
 

How did we help him, we tossed out the “goals” and crafted a step-by-step plan with specific daily actions and hard deadlines.  
 
After just 2 months of sticking to this plan, he surpassed his original “goals” and hit that 15-loan mark.  
 
It wasn’t magic—it was a real plan in action. 
 

So here’s my question to you: are you ready to break the cycle?  
 
Instead of setting another “goal” for the new year, let’s put a plan in place that will move the needle. 
 

Go Here and we’ll help you build your action-based plan with deadlines.  
 
No more New Year’s “goals” that never quite happen—this time, it’s different. 
 

Looking forward to seeing you make big moves, 
 
Don’t wait until January to start; book your call now, and let’s start planning your success today.  I’ll catch up with you when you go here.
