Keeping Your Real Estate Career on Track

Are you a flounder or a trout?
The flounder lies on the bottom of the sea, waiting for food to come to it. It allows the tides to control its movements and it doesn't resist natural forces. Consequently, it can be easily caught.
The trout swims against the currents, chooses carefully what it will eat, decides when to resist, when to rest and consequently, is very difficult to catch.
Correspondingly, the flounder person reacts only to what comes his or her way. The trout person acts with forethought and self-discipline. The flounder person waits for something to happen while the trout person makes things happen. The flounder person concentrates on activities, and the trout person concentrates on goals and objectives. If you're not a trout person, you can be. Take charge of your life by controlling your habits, don't let them control you. Hard work alone won't get you ahead you need to also work smart. When you do, there will be plenty of time to take care of all your needs.
