On my 253rd episode of my Monday Morning Pep Talk, I will take you through one of the biggest struggles I face as a coach, leader, mentor and that is to convince real estate professionals and entrepreneurs to commit to a 3-Year Vision. It's proven that high achievers are inclined to jump directly to actionable items on their to-do lists, skipping the exercise of creating their "north star." ELPs and super achievers let their 3-Year Version guide their decisions. Today, I will make a serious attempt to reframe how you should look at your goals and vision so your focus will stay on the version of yourself that you want to become. The struggle I presented in the introduction is real and I see in advisors and entrepreneurs that I coach 1:1 and in group settings. It's a classic case of the brain doing its job, keeping us in the status quo. Your brain does not want you to "think big." I’ve identified ten common challenges, from fear of failure and overwhelm to unclear paths and limiting beliefs. The question becomes "why" and what are the reasons the advisors and entrepreneurs struggle with this process. I identified 10 areas: I turn to Dan Sullivan, with Strategic Coach, for guidance in this area. I've researched his content fully because I absolutely love 3 of the books he's written with Dr. Benjamin Hardy: "Who Not How" "The Gap and the Gain" "10x is Easier than 2x" I've narrowed down his content into 7 areas that he uses to promote the power of creating and living by a 3-Year Version: I've been through 4 vision cycles and I can tell you unequivocally, that having lived by this process, my life has changed. The idea of moving toward a version that you can see, feel, taste, smell, and hear does, 100%, provide the daily juice to stay consistent on the things you've committed to creating. If you are finally and fully committed to building out a 3-Year Version, follow the steps that I've used over the years to do my planning: Intentionally, get out your calendar and pick a day that you will only focus on your 3-Year Version. Yes, you'll need at least 3-4 hours if not 7-8 to fully gain clarity through intentional thought. Identify a location, away from the noise, that inspires you. I recommend doing an overnight stay away from your home. (Yes, it’s that important!). Make it an event every year and especially at the beginning of a 3-year cycle. I also realize as a coach, leader, mentor, and trainer, that I can't want it more for you than you want it for yourself. All I can do is provide you the research and the tools and today, I feel like, after today's MMPT, you've got what you need to go build your "3-Year Version." Today, I’ve given you the research, the reasons, and the tools. Now, it’s up to you to create your 3-Year Version.
