"How you do anything is How you do everything" ~ T. Harv Eker

What Real Estate characteristics determine your level of Success? Are you a do-it-yourself kind of person, a know it all? Do you mastermind with a group of like minded individuals? OR do you feel everyone is out to take advantage of you?

After reading the book "The Secrets of a Millionaire Mind" by T. Harv Eker a whole new world opened up for me. I understood his statement deeply, "How you do anything is how you do everything".

Wow, my hesitation to make a decision BEFORE I had all my facts became clear, that was my greatest block in Real Estate. I found myself not committing to anything until I understood every step. My fear of doing something wrong without knowing it, paralyzed me. How silly is that? Some would say I was simply cautious, you decide.

I meet people every day who seem to have that same attitude, show me the steps BEFORE I decide this is what I want to do. I can sure appreciate that! In anything, how can you understand the steps before you take them? Striving to understand a future event before it happens? Not likely!

They ask me to Mentor them. (http://www.moneymama.biz/) What they don't know is how I watch how they make decisions. You may say I'm being judgmental. I say I am discerning whether to work with them or not. Let's get clear between judgment and discernment. When I judge, I am deciding someone else's beliefs are not correct. When I discern, I observe behavior and decide if I want to participate. Watching, allows me a chance to decide for myself if I will work with them. And it shows me clearly how they will work on their end. "How they do anything is how they do everything".

When they ask for a Mentor, what they are really saying is I lack personal confidence and don't want to own my choices. I don't want to make a mistake. Can you see how they lack responsibility for themselves with this thought process? They are trying to push their responsibility of learning back onto me. I simply don't take it.

Let's compare if they choose a Mentor. They are willing to forge ahead, taking on greater education to learn for themselves and using me only as a guide. That thought process is totally different. I'm there for them all day long! (http://www.moneymama.biz/)

What characteristics show me the difference?

It's like with cooking. You can bake a cake anywhere but elevation, temperature and humidity play a part. If you don't know that, your cakes will come out different every time. Is it possible to have the person learning see EVERY possible difference on their first cake? No You can explain the differences but until they take the steps themselves and do it enough times, they will never know.

"How you do anything is how you do everything", can you see the basic thought processes connecting?

You can also use, going to school. You can sign up for a class, feeling excited or feeling the anxiety because it's all new material to learn. Your first day of class you decide it's not for you....you did poorly on an entrance exam or you decided you already know the material. Time to ask, why are you going to school? To get educated, to learn new stuff BECAUSE you don't know the information already? Or do you walk away from a difficult class because you are embarrassed you don't already KNOW the information and don't want to fail or look stupid amongst your peers? Or do you walk away because you already know the material and don't feel you can learn anything new?

How do you move forward in learning a new skill? Is education a cost or a value to you? http://www.moneymama.biz/
