Real Estate Matters

By Frazier Hughes

Executive Summary: (Definition) a person who organizes and operates a business or businesses, taking on greater than normal financial risks in order to do so. As in, “many entrepreneurs see potential in this market"

Life gives us lots of opportunities to be and do whatever we want. What are you missing out on? Is there something that you have always dreamed of doing? It’s not too late to live your dreams and try to do something different. Age does not matter.

Dusty Baker at 73 just won his first World Series as a manager and his managerial career as a whole has spanned four different decades since it began in 1993! He had to start somewhere. That is 29 years of not giving up when a lot of people would.

Some have success sooner than others, but you will never know unless you take action. Fear holds most of us back. I know it does for me. I was so scared to go back and take my real estate exam I waited a year to go back and take it.

You see I am not a good test taker, but I can sell. I walked out of the real estate exam the first time crying with flashbacks of high school failing many of my exams and crying, while trying to do my math homework with my stepdad.

At that time in 2017 I was the salesperson of the year at Berglund Luxury, so I was fooled by the success there. I was telling myself, “You are doing well here, why go back and take the exam?” I knew deep down inside I did not need to give up. And I didn’t. I went back and passed after failing five times. I am now one of the top realtors at Keller Williams.

When I started I had little to no money and was scared as hell. I just started taking action and calling my sphere. It all began to unfold. Things fell into place. Unbelievable? Believable.

You may not be Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, or Elon Musk but then again, maybe you are. Is something fooling you from living your dreams and being a great entrepreneur? You will never know unless you act. Remember this quote by Dale Carnegie: “Take a chance! All life is a chance. The man who goes farthest is generally the one who is willing to do and dare.”
