Well, this morning I woke up, the sun was shining, the birds were chirping, school bells were ringing and I had a flash of genius. That’s right, a simple, non threatening, low key, under whelming FLASH of genius. Surprised? Well, so was I. I want to be Judge Judy and Gordon Ramsey’s love child. Ok, so….maybe you’re laughing out loud at this moment but, hear me out, I am going somewhere with this. I want Judge Judy’s tenacity, unwavering truth seeking and inability to be duped. I want Gordon Ramsey’s commitment to excellence to both himself and those around him as well as, his eye for talent and his ability to speak what is truly on his mind and people get it. I also want some traits that they both share, which are, a flare for the dramatic (which I may have been born with but, never really tapped into), an ability to command an audience and, creating success from the ground up. Truth is, I think Judge Judy and Gordon Ramsey’s love child would make a really strong REO Agent. All of the characteristics I listed above are what you need to be in this business and, if I could develop them to the level of Judge Judy and Gordon Ramsey….well, I would be unstoppable. Of course, those skills I listed aren’t the only ones you will need but, it’s a great place to start. So for all of you looking to get your first REO then, think about what I have written today and ask yourself, is what you are doing now succeeding? Have you gotten your first REO? The one attribute I admire the most, of the many very highly successful people have, is adaptation. Learning to change and adapt is how you stay alive, grow and eventually reach your pinnacle. It’s a cosmic fact that the only constant in this universe is that constant isn’t possible. Whoa….that was deep....maybe too deep for my REO blog…lol My point is, if what you’re doing isn’t working, why are you still doing it? Are you mad? I am a true believer in engineering your success and, yes…before Edison finally engineered the proper filament to use for the light bulb, it is said he had thousands of trials and error….thousands but, what made a difference for him is that he learned something new about each and every failure that, in my opinion is what separates perseverance and madness.
