Presentation Transcript

Slide2 : Aspire to be the best in the business. Never let anyone convince you that it can’t be done. Even a novice can approach the business with a sense of pride and commitment.

Slide3 : Balance your home and business life. A burned out mortgage professional makes as many mistakes as a newbie does.

Slide4 : Communicate your goals. When others are aware of what you’re striving for it’s easier for them to be a resource or a part of your cheer team. Communicate your expectations. You set the example for the way others treat you.

Slide5 : Deliver all that you promised and more. Whether it’s just a return phone call or meeting a tight deadline, it’s important to be accountable everyday.

Slide6 : Execute your plan daily. A plan without ACTION is useless. Excellence in execution is the key to achieving your dreams.

Slide7 : Figure out the facts and ignore the hearsay. Mortgage myths are alive and well. Many deals have gone down the drain because of unfounded information. Find a source of reliable information and use it as a basis for your decisions.

Slide8 : Gratitude is the attitude of successful people. They know that each experience—good or bad, brings with it a lesson and an opportunity.

Slide9 : Habits will make you or break you in this business. As the old saying goes, “How you do anything is how you do everything”. What kind of habits do you have? What kind of habits do you need to be successful? Create “success habits” and you will achieve your goals.

Slide10 : Inspire others to discard the negativity and hostility that has become common place in the mortgage industry. Demonstrate the power of positive thinking through your words and actions. Let the results speak for you.

Slide11 : Join with other mortgage professionals to create a powerful alliance. Create a mastermind group or a joint venture team to share knowledge and resources.

Slide12 : Keep your honesty and integrity. It will never fail you. Resist the temptation to get rich quick with mortgage schemes and misrepresentations.

Slide13 : Learn all that you can about the business and the people you interact with daily. The more you learn, the more you grow. Growth breeds success, confidence, and more success.

Slide14 : Master a skill that will set you apart from all others. Become an expert in a particular niche and give yourself the competitive edge.

Slide15 : Nurture your relationships with team members, business associates, family, and friends. Your reward will be revealed to you when you expect it least but need it the most.

Slide16 : Observe what is happening all around you. Identify patterns of success that you can model to enhance your career. Take notes of habits that are a deterrent to success and patterns of destruction. It’s important to recognize these so that you can avoid them.

Slide17 : Practice your skills to perfect them. Practice doing mortgage calculations so you can do them quickly and accurately. Practice explaining products and programs until you can do it comfortably and with confidence.

Slide18 : Qualify the people you interact with. Qualify your borrowers to determine if they are truly loan clients. Qualify your associates to determine if they add value to your life or simply drain your resources.

Slide19 : Respect yourself and others. Demonstrating self-respect will set the expectation for others to follow. People tend to treat you the way you treat yourself. Respect the space and time of others even when you don’t understand why they need it. Be respectful of the beliefs of others. Do this even if you don’t agree with them. It’s their freedom…their right to exercise their choices, in their world.

Slide20 : Seek Success in a way that is meaningful to YOU. Be careful not to measure your success by someone else’s numbers. Things aren’t always what they seem. Seek solutions rather fault or blame and you will get better results every time.

Slide21 : Teach those who desire to learn. You are guaranteed to learn something yourself while sharing your knowledge with others.

Slide22 : Utilize your existing resources in new ways. Seeing an old thing with new eyes opens up a world of possibilities.

Slide23 : Visualize yourself living your best life. Imagine yourself feeling good and looking good because you’re achieving your goals. You’re spending time with the people you love. You’ve got time to do the things you enjoy most. Remember, we become what we think about most.

Slide24 : Welcome the opportunity to receive help and support. You don’t have to do it all yourself. The Mortgage Super Hero Committee isn’t lurking about to see you toughing it out as the Lone Ranger. So, spare yourself. You’ll feel better and you’ll improve the quality of your work when you allow yourself to get refreshed.

Slide25 : “X out” the chaos and confusion in your life by taking a realistic look at the situation. You may be experiencing the “effect” already as part of your daily grind. Step back for a moment and look for the “cause”. Ask yourself what you can do to minimize loan delays. Ask yourself what you can do to avoid long lines and crowds? Ask yourself what you can do to make your commute more pleasant. Think about a solution and begin to “x out” the things that take you further away from where you want to be.

Slide26 : Yearn to help others as you grow in your career. Money and success will follow.

Slide27 : Zero in on your goals and commit to taking action. If you only do one thing per week, at the end of the year you will have improved your career and your life 52 times more than it was before. At this rate, you’re bound to experience the success you desire.
