A speaker argues that slowing down and focusing on one productive task per day actually boosted productivity and business growth. He credits this shift to advice from Hank Avik and coach Lars, contrasting it with the burnout of overwork that cost other agents their families.
One of the things that I love with that comment, Lars, is the fact that slowing down to speed up, that's one of the things that a good friend, Hank Avik, has been beating into my brain. You just mentioned that as well. And I took that to heart. The last couple of months, I've really slowed down and I made myself one promise a day. I said I will do one productive thing a day, and then I own the rest of my day to do whatever I want. And it has built my business. Excuse me. Tremendously. Because where I'm spending my time and doing my. My. My lead generation and everything else and working with my clients is where I want to spend my time, not where I should, where I feel I need to spend my time. And I'm finding my tribe. And I think that that's something that a lot of folks don't get because they. They're in the hamster wheel. They never stop running my. I've told the story a thousand times on the show and I'll share it again. My dad's been an agent for 53 years. He has had his retina detached from his eye twice out of stress dealing with clients. He missed family vacations and everything else. We can work smarter, not harder. And with like your coaching, your training and the stuff that you're putting out there, I think a lot of people really benefit from it, basically. And also kind of following in your footsteps and kind of looking at your lifestyle and saying, man, this guy's doing a really stinking good job in business. He's building a good relationship with his family. Not that he didn't have a bad one, but you know what I'm saying, You're retaining it. And a lot of folks would love to have that lifestyle, but they want a 2x10x20x their business.
