Now that 2018 is practically behind us, it’s time to think about the direction that you want to go in your career. You can either soar with the eagles, or you can keep on groveling with the turkeys!

That sounds direct, but in this case, it needs to be. The practice of real estate has many levels. Just because you may not be a super-agent producing more money than ten agents put together, that doesn’t mean you are not successful. Success is in the eye of the beholder, and sometimes it may not be about money.

To soar with the eagles is all about being the best you can be. I recall my friend’s little boy wanted to be a garbage collector in the worst way. His mother, a most astute woman, instructed the toddler that it was okay to be a garbage collector as long as he was the best garbage collector he could be. What wisdom she had!

Soar with the eagles no matter where or how you’re soaring. For many real estate agents, soaring with the eagles is all about being content in their real estate career, having flexibility in their hours, being able to provide for their families and being able to spend time with people they love. If you wake up each morning with a desire and the ability to pursue your passions, I’d say you’re sure to be soaring with the eagles. My only advice to you would be to continue and to soar higher and higher!

For those of you who are working in a job because it pays the bills, maybe it’s time to spread your wings and soar. A career in real estate is not easy, nor is it for the faint of heart. There must be a passion within you to make it happen. When you take that first step toward getting a real estate license, you are stepping off a cliff and beginning to fly. When you get the license, you’re flying a little higher; when you receive great training, you’re soaring. Make a sale, take a listing, know what you’re doing, and then surround yourself with successful people and before you know it, you will be soaring with the eagles!

TEAM Hughes Real Estate School loves being a catalyst! Our only reason for being is to pass on to you the knowledge you must have to gain that license you so passionately desire! After you get it and after you’ve gotten your wings wet a little from flying, we’re here for your post licensing and then for your continuing education and let’s not forget, some of you will want to obtain your broker license. By that time, you need to soar with the eagles because you are an eagle!
