Refuse to be afraid
Good Morning Sean, This came in my email today for my insight of the day and I thought this might be a great thing to share with our BOLD group.
I am making it a BOLD day!

Refuse To Be Afraid
Tim Wrightman, a former All-American UCLA football player, tells a story about how, as a rookie lineman in the National Football League, he was up against the legendary pass rusher Lawrence Taylor. Taylor was not only physically powerful and uncommonly quick but a master at verbal intimidation.
Looking young Tim in the eye, he said, “Sonny, get ready. I’m going to the left and there’s nothing you can do about it.”
Wrightman coolly responded, “Sir, is that your left or mine?”
The question froze Taylor long enough to allow Wrightman to throw a perfect block on him.
It’s amazing what we can accomplish if we refuse to be afraid. Fear – whether it’s of pain, failure, or rejection – is a toxic emotion that creates monsters in our mind that consume self-confidence and intimidate us from doing our best or sometimes even trying at all.
As a law professor, I saw scores of capable students fail the bar exam, not because they didn’t know enough but because their anxiety hindered their ability to remember or coherently express what they did know.
For most law graduates, passing the bar exam should be no more difficult than walking across a board 20 feet long and two feet wide. The trouble is, they don’t walk normally because they’re intimidated by the illusion that the board is suspended 100 feet in the air and that getting across is a life-or-death matter.
What’s the worst thing that could happen? Embarrassment, inconvenience, and expense – but none of these is fatal.
Perspective is an antidote to fear. Most things you fear will never happen, and even if they do, you can handle it.

Growth Plan
I have had a few questions over the past few days regarding the Growth Plan section of our BOLD homework.So, I gave those who question my version of what I thought a Growth Plan is…not quite sure if I was correct I decided to email Pat Mancusco and ask…here is his answer…short and sweet: “Growth Plan is simply the education you are going to take to grow you personally or your business. It can also include books”. Have a BOLD Day everybody…Sean

About Keller Williams
ABOUT KELLER WILLIAMS…
Gary Keller and Joe Williams founded Keller Williams® Realty in 1983 with the specific premise that buyers and sellers deserve the best service for their real estate needs. For more than 24 years that founding premise has been a major factor in the continued growth of Keller Williams® across North America.
In the past 24 years, we have grown to over 700 offices with over 73,000 agents in the United States and Canada. Why are we growing so fast?
Gary and Joe developed a unique Agent-as-Partner approach to their Real Estate business, in response to traditional “Brand Name Approach” dependent companies, and as a team support alternative to the “Every Agent for Themselves” 100% commission concepts.
THE RESULT IS:
*
High agent commissions with low monthly billings, and a maximum annual “cap” on the dollars each agent contributes to the company.
*
Agent participation in the company decision making process through an Agent Leadership Council (ALC).
*
A belief system and philosophy which guide all company members in a values-based Environment.
*
The finest education system through Keller Williams University and local in-house training, offering advanced business courses to every level of agent.
*
A profit sharing system which disbursed over 53 million dollars nationally in 2006. Our agents share in what they build – they are our partners.
Keller Williams Realty offers unlimited opportunity to all individuals. This includes those looking for a new career, those agents within the industry who are frustrated in their present environments and those agents who are looking for greater potential to further their abilities and income through ownership and wealth building. If you consider yourself TALENT, please read further!
*
As someone outside the industry looking at a career in real estate, you desire complete training in a positive environment, with the ability to design your personal business as profitably as possible. If you think Real Estate is sitting at a desk and waiting for the phone to ring, you are not KW material. If you want to build a business and make a top reward, call us and we will consult with you. Normally our new agent process will include at least two interviews and personality profile testing.
*
As an experienced agent looking for change – are you looking for the best environment to either grow or maintain your business? Are you a team player? Are you learning based? Do you want to create a wealth building plan? Would you like to learn how to build a business plan? Would you like to learn how to build a team? Do you deserve better compensation for your hard work? Are you tired of being around the “whiners and complainers”? Do you want a say in what goes on in your company? Do you want to build passive income? If you say yes to any of the above questions – call us.
*
As an entrepreneurial agent, existing independent owner, or as an investor, our concept can provide a highway to wealth building opportunities for franchise owners.
However, are you willing to share the profits with your team of agents and staff? Are you willing to provide the capital, vision and accountability to lead your business to profitability? Are you willing to have an open book policy with budgets and P and L statements? Are you willing to attend regional and national training on a regular basis? Are you willing to find the best talent available for your Team Leader and empower them as your CEO? Is our company philosophy, vision and belief system shared by you? If yes, the opportunities within Keller Williams are unlimited!
