Lesson #2: Always Leave the Doors to Innovation Open
“I think many people assume, wrongly, that a company exists simply to make money,” said Packard during an HP management training session in 1960. “While this is an important result of a company’s existence, we have to go deeper to find our real reason for being…A group of people get together and exist as an institution that we call a company…to do something worthwhile – they make a contribution to society.”

Why is Taking it Easy so Hard?
The real reason why you find it hard to take it easy is because (drum roll, please) you THINK it MUST be HARD. Seriously, that is the ONLY reason life feels hard. When you choose to believe that life has to be hard because that’s just the way it is, then you are deliberately (even if maybe unconsciously) creating the experience of difficulty in your life. In order to take it easy in your life, you simply need to come from a place where you believe it’s possible. Now, I know it isn’t always comfortable to change which is the main reason we get caught up in staying in situations that don’t feel good. However, I promise you that deliberately creating a love that you love is more than worth the initial discomfort.

Define Your Uniqueness
So many business owners beat their heads against the wall, wondering why their business isn’t working. They try everything - new sales scripts, better ads, and new products to no avail. In most cases the reason things are not working is simple - there is not always enough business in the marketplace and very little reason for anyone to give it to you and not your competitors. What about your business? When you started, did you begin with a uniqueness – a real point of difference, or did you just start as a “me too” competitor? If you are a “me too” business you will have a tough time.

Hiring Ineffective Salespeople Costs Real Estate Industry Millions
If ever there was an industry that lives or dies by the performance of it’s salespeople, it is real estate. But real estate sales, like insurance sales, suffers from a cripplingly high failure rate when hiring new salespeople, and the reason is that these industries employ highly ineffective processes for identifying and hiring fresh sales talent. In most real estate companies the 80/20 rule (or something akin to it) applies. For example in one major national agency 15% of agents deliver 78% of revenues. What this means is that hiring effective agents is a purely random event - No more effective than tossing a coin.

WHO ARE YOU? In the Maze
It is so interesting how ever so often in business; we get so comfortable in the norm and forget the real reason why we are all in business in the first place.

What do I mean; we are comfortable in the norm of the day and forget our true calling to service.

A Lease Option May Be The Answer
Lease options are yet another reason I love real estate investing so much. It’s also part of my real estate mentoring program as a profitable exit strategy. Remember, you do not need to guarantee today’s prices for a transaction that actually closes in two years or more in the future. The agreement can be made to settle the price at “fair market value” when they actually enter escrow. Those numbers can easily be determined if your property is located in an area where there are multiple examples of “like kind” homes from which comparable values can be drawn.
