THE ABILITY TO FOCUS

Oftentimes real estate transactions present a number of problems, all at the same time, that must be solved to reach a successful closing. A trait of successful real estate professionals is their ability to focus on the one thing that is most important, and to spend their efforts and energy on whatever that may be.

You can REALLY only focus on ONE THING.
Want proof? Try this experiment:
Sit upright in a chair with both feet on the ground.
Now raise your right foot about 6 inches off the floor.
Begin rotating your right leg and foot in a clockwise motion (right to left )
Now take your right hand and draw an imaginary "6" in the air....
WITHOUT the direction of your right leg changing !!!!!

It can't be done...the moment you shift your focus from one task to the other...the one not being focused on stops.

It has been said, "Until your first priority is accomplished, everything else is a distraction."
Once you've focused your efforts on your first priority and it has been completed, what do you do? Do you move on to priority number two?

NO, you focus your efforts on the NEW NUMBER ONE priority!

When issues arise, as they often do, take a few moments to determine the main priority and focus on that until it is done....and by the way....you can stop trying to rotate your leg one way and drawing a "6" the other way....it can't be done !
