What if your goals are the reason you feel behind?
In this episode, we're talking about realistic goal setting—and why no one (including us!) can tell you what your goals "should" be.
Because here's the truth: your goals have to match your life.
We're breaking down what's actually normal in real estate (hint: it's probably less than you think), why comparing yourself to other agents will always leave you feeling behind, and how to set goals that actually support your lifestyle—not compete with it.
We also dive into why number-based goals can feel discouraging, how action-based goals give you more control, and what to do if you're feeling overwhelmed or off track halfway through the year.
Plus, we share real-life examples of how our own goals have shifted over time—and why doing less can sometimes lead to better results.
And don't miss the story of the Mexican fisherman… because it might completely change how you think about success.
