| Goal Setting |
| 12/30/2008 |
| We all know that the person who knows where they are going is sure to arrive. Yet, I believe less than 5% of all Realtors actually set goals. Sure, they know how much they have to make to pay the bills, but they don’t actually set goals so that they can strive for even greater rewards. That was a truly amazing fact for me. |

| An Office Plan Made Simple |
| 12/30/2008 |
| Managers ask their agents to have a business plan, but it is amazing to me that managers don’t have really concrete, easy to see plans for their offices. When I started managing an office, I knew what my company expected of me, but I didn’t have anything that was specific in terms of when and what I was going to do. So, I developed an easy plan that worked really well for me. |
