Call Yourself Whatever You Want

Matt and Garrett are back today with a topic that Matt was inspired to bring forward partly due to listening to an interview with Gino Wickman, the author of such books as Traction, The EOS Life, and Rocket Fuel. Given the recently increasing popularity of the entrepreneur culture, today our hosts take a look at what exactly that term means, as well as other related terms like solopreneur, particularly as it applies to roles within real estate. As a salesperson or real estate agent, are you an entrepreneur, solopreneur or even an intrapreneur? Listen in today to find out.

And as you listen you're bound to laugh a bit as well as our two hosts try to define what each term means before inviting you to decide for yourself what title you want to use. They also go on to review Robert Kiyosaki's Cash Flow Quadrant and what most successful real estate angels focus on. In the end, Matt and Garrett emphasize their clear message of just how important it is to keep in mind that your title doesn’t matter as much as showing up and building your business to be what you want and need it to be: a business.

Episode Highlights:

• How is a real estate career an entrepreneurship, solopreneurship, or intrapreneurship?

• Most successful real estate agents focus on ‘the right now’ of creating wealth.

• Are you running your business like a business?

Quotes:

“The entrepreneurship culture, so to speak, for the past several years, has become like the cool thing.”

“A lot of the most successful realtors that I know do not focus on the end game of ‘I can’t wait to sell my business’. They focus on the right now of creating great wealth.”

“So that as a salesperson, as a real estate agent, you can really focus on what your business is, and what it’s producing, and what that means in terms of your involvement.”

“But you wonder why your business is floundering. It’s like, well, you’re not truly showing up as a solopreneur, entrepreneur, business owner, whatever you want to call yourself.”

“You can call yourself whatever you want, because ultimately, people are going to judge you on how you show up and what your actions are.”

“Figure out yourself how you want to show up, and then ask yourself, ‘Am I showing up in that capacity?'”

“I find a lot of people own a title, but they don’t show up as that title.”
