Feeling a little too “relaxed” in the name of boundaries? This one's for you.
We’ve talked a lot about boundaries, self-care, and rest—but let’s not forget: real estate is still a job. And if you’re not working, you’re not getting paid.
In this very real, very necessary pep talk, we’re talking about something a lot of agents need to hear right now: get to work. Whether the market has slowed, your motivation is fizzling, or you’re stuck in an “I’ll start next week” loop, this episode is your reminder that consistency—not motivation—is the real secret to success.
Yes, we believe in work-life balance. Yes, we’re fans of boundaries. But if you’re calling “watching Netflix on a Tuesday” your professional day off… it might be time for some tough love.
🎧 In this episode, we’re diving into:
The difference between rest and avoidance
What to do when your motivation is MIA
How to stop “fizzling” after big events or ideas
Why many agents self-sabotage with poor time management
How to be honest about your productivity and stop lying to yourself
The connection between consistency and confidence
How to use 10-minute tasks to get momentum going
The REAL start of your 1–3 year journey to real estate income
We’re also sharing real stories about using your time wisely, knowing when to take a break and when to get back to it, and how to rate your networking game on a scale of 1 to 10 (spoiler alert: sitting in the back and talking to no one is not a 10).
If you’ve been floating around wondering why business is slow, it might be time to look in the mirror. Let us help you gently—but firmly—snap out of it and get back to work.
