I had a great meditation this morning and then a strong workout with my workout partner.  Man, he is always busting my ass!  He’s always getting me to do more than I want. 

Sound familiar?

I have been on many podcasts and the interviewer always asks me what is the key to being a top-notch listing agent.

Accountability.

In my 25+ year career as a listing agent, I have ALWAYS been accountable to someone for my actions and results.  And the reasons may be obvious to you:

• You perform better under observation.
• You get honest feedback from others.
• It forces you to follow through on commitments.
• It creates firm deadlines for important tasks.
• It keeps you grounded in reality.
• You learn from the successes and failures of others.
• It prevents little problems from turning into big ones.

We have an amazing automated accountability tool in our Collective that is amazing to this end.

But the great thing is you don’t have to pay me or anyone else to make this happen for you.

How about this; call another real estate agent you know anywhere in the country, preferably not in your marketplace, and start an accountability group.  Have a weekly check-in, where you set your goals for the week with them and then have to report back to them with your results.  BOOM.  You just started an accountability group.

So whatever you want to accomplish in your life, whether you want to be a better parent, have an amazing body, lose weight, meditate more or be an Unleashed listing agent, find an accountability partner.

If you don’t, then you’re not serious about achieving that goal.
