Don't Get So Busy Creating That You Stop Growing
Don\u2019t be so busy creating that you stop growing. I often talk about Vincent Pugliese and the Mastermind group that I\u2019m part of. He\u2019s really changed my life, and while I was at his retreat we talked about some hard things that really changed the trajectory of everything I\u2019m doing in my business. As a Realtor, I thought that recurring income wasn\u2019t a possibility for me, but Vincent taught me otherwise. He taught through Total Life Freedom how to have recurring incomes so that you don\u2019t have to have all your work be service based. That week really changed my life and that brings me to the lesson for today. I started listening to Vincent\u2019s podcast after that retreat along with Ken Carfagno, Kent Sanders, and John Stange\u2019s podcasts. Listening to these shows changed my life\u2014all of them were in the Total Life Freedom Mastermind with me at one point. It affected how I did business, how I interacted with people, how I served people, and how I grew my business. I\u2019ve spent the last couple of years really devoted to my show and creating content for the membership. What I\u2019ve learned is that I\u2019ve gotten too busy creating content\u2014and I don\u2019t want you to get so busy creating content or whatever in your business that you stop learning and growing. This is what I learned a few weeks ago when I realized I had been missing out on the podcasts I usually listen to because I had gotten so busy creating content that I had stopped my routine of consuming content and learning from others. It reminded me of the time I was in the ministry\u2014you are pouring into people, but you feel like no one\u2019s pouring into you. You can spend so much time leading and teaching others that you never take the time to feed yourselves. You\u2019re just too busy. Part of my growth is listening to podcasts that cause me to improve as a dad\u2014be a better person in my faith and with my family. They help me improve my business, become a better Realtor, and be a better leader for my membership community. So, I hope that you can really get the point that you can be so busy creating that you stop consuming\u2014stop learning. Don\u2019t be so busy that you are not consuming, learning, and growing yourself. I hope this is helpful for you guys. It\u2019s important to keep learning and growing whether that\u2019s reading books or listening to podcasts\u2014whatever feeds you. Always keep learning and growing. Thanks for listening and I\u2019ll see you on the next podcast.
