Hi folks. I am grateful to get to work with a group of people and agents like yourselves. I learn from your ideas and experiences daily and it helps me to consistently improve my mindset and skillset. I've also adjusted my daily activities to work smarter and better to serve my customers, clients and friends.

I say this because some of the things I'm doing today, I learned from some of YOU. Many of you have better ideas about how to maintain relationships with your Sphere of Influence (SOI) and consistently deliver value to those folks, so please feel free to share. We all make each other better!

The constant chatter surrounding the volatility of interest rates, increased days on market and whatnot, has more than a few of us concerned about what lies ahead. Vendors we hadn't seen in quite a while are now beating down our doors to get into a sales meeting and speak to agents. Plenty of sellers still want to sell high and some buyers are scared of changing rates.

You know the issues; I want to remind you of the solutions.

1. Get back to basics. What are the basics for a Ninja?

• Pay attention to your mindset: Practice gratitude first thing in the morning & throughout the day. Remember that your brain & your spirit need to hear you say positive, wonderful things OUT LOUD. Don't just think grateful thoughts; SAY grateful things.

I say "I don't have time" far too often. I bet you do too. This time of year, in this type of market, is THE perfect to develop the habits of being mindful of your thoughts, saying NO to things and taking control over your schedule. Be honest with yourself, are you doing what you need to do? Or, what you want to do? That kind of honesty is uncomfortable, but worth it.
