By being mindful and aware of your actions, and being present in the moment, you reduce stress and improve your mental and emotional health.Know your purpose to improve your motivation and presence in the world. Your purpose is what motivates you in the morning, not what drags you out of bed.The first and second pillars are about creating clarity - being mindful, being present, and finding our purpose give us clarity of mind and goals. Commit to those goals and eliminate habits that do not align with your vision and commitment.Take time to practice gratitude, meditate consistently, find some other mindful activities, and listen without judgment. “Mindfulness itself automatically makes us a little more sensitive to what we put in our body, but it takes some focused attention and intention.” – Dr. Eric J.

    A Conversation with Stephanie Casper, both a Real Estate Lending Executive and Real Estate Investor

    About Stephanie Casper: Chief Revenue Officer Stephanie leads the Sales and Marketing teams at Kiavi. She has been a lender to residential investors since 2015 when she joined CoreVest Finance as Head of Bridge Lending. In that role, Stephanie worked directly with customers to develop additional loan products to meet the changing needs of the residential investor. She has a B.S. from The Hotel School at Cornell University, and an MBA from UNC Chapel Hill. Stephanie is a fellow investor in the SFR space with a small portfolio of rentals. She caught the residential investment bug from watching her grandfather pick up investment properties over his lifetime, and plans to continue to follow in his footsteps.  In this episode Adam and Stephanie discuss:Who Kiavi lends to for residential investmentsThe demand for owning rental propertiesMaking investment decisionsTop tips for accessing capital in real estateScaling a business with single family Key Takeaways: As a nationwide lender, Kiavi's customers tend to fall into three categories based on their size and size of investment: hobbyists or people just getting into investing for the first time, flippers or owners of rental portfolios, and people who invest in residential properties as business.A steady cash flow and preservation of capital meet an investor's kind of return threshold or return hurdle and that's why there is this sort of interest in owning rentals because the fundamentals of economics and demographics support it.Look at the math when buying and holding rentals - it shouldn't be an emotional buy. Get a sense of what the top line of the property's revenues will be, make sure the rent is met, and do some research. It is now possible for investors to find financing from a variety of lenders. If you are considering buying a property or if you know someone who owns or invests in real estate, ask around. Real estate investors love to share their stories and success with others.Having the right expertise and people around you, even if you don't have direct experience, and having realistic expectations on how long it takes makes a business with a single family scalable and can leverage that durable capital.  “Figure out your risk tolerance and threshold related to leverage and understand that it doesn't always make sense to be at 100% leverage.” – Stephanie Casper Connect with Stephanie Casper:Website: https://www.kiavi.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephanie-neild-casper-7319517/  Connect with Adam J.

    Systematize your Real Estate Business with Jess Lenouvel

    About Jess Lenouvel: Jess Lenouvel is an author, speaker, media contributor, and Founder of The Listings Lab. A real estate marketing and business scaling vanguard, she made the decision to stop selling after 13 years in the business and help agents create scalable, sustainable businesses by creating relationships at scale. The Listings Lab was founded in 2018 and Jess and her team have shown over 20,000 agents how to build scalable, sustainable businesses for the digital era that don’t require a choice between lifestyle and financial freedom.A sought-after media expert on real estate marketing, Jess and The Listings Lab method have been featured in Forbes and Entrepreneur and she has spoken at the Berkshire Hathaway Home Services Sales Convention for 55,000 agents. In this episode Adam and Jess discuss:The downside of hustle cultureBuilding systems and using teamsScaling a service-based businessOperating in your zone of genius Key Takeaways: Real estate professionals often get caught up in the hustle culture, not realizing that working long hours and giving up everything for money, without knowing the limits of their physical and emotional health, can be disastrous.There's probably 99% of your business that can be done by someone else better than you, and you shouldn’t feel uncomfortable about it. When you break your business down systematically into different parts and roles, and you find people who are better at these things than you are, then you will be able to come up with something that is better as a whole than it would be on your own.The key to scaling your business is breaking it down into smaller segments and chunks and eliminating automation or outsourcing of each segment one by one - when it's done, you feel a tremendous amount of pressure and you can focus on what's going to generate the highest value and impact for the business.When everything is in your head and everything is manual, it can be very difficult to maintain consistency in terms of quality. Having a team means that while you cannot do everything, there are others who have much greater expertise in some of these areas. “Just because something works when you're at 100,000 doesn't mean that it's still going to work and still going to be effective at a million or 2 million or 5 million… and so a lot of what we focus on in the book is really creating systems and creating frameworks, and having you do the work on the front end that is going to work for you no matter how big you get” – Jess Lenouvel Connect with Jess Lenouvel:Website: https://www.thelistingslab.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jesslenouvel/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@jess_lenouvel/ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/thelistingslab  Connect with Adam J.

That's how you stand out and get their attention.You must pay attention to detail, as it has only two things that details can do  - either enhance the experience or detract from it.Instead of waiting for customers to ask for the solution, offer it proactively before they ever ask for it. “Look at what everybody else is doing, and do the opposite.” – Vance Morris Connect with Vance Morris:Website: https://book.deliverservicenow.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vancemorris/  Connect with Adam J.

    Systemized Relationship Marketing with Steve Buzogany

    About Steve Buzogany: Steve is the Founder and CEO of The Appreciation Advocate. Their company uses the practice of gift-giving and appreciation to generate referrals for other small businesses.  In this episode Adam and Steve discuss:The three major problems with gift givingThe 80-20 rulePromotions vs gifts Key Takeaways: Essentially, gift-giving has three problems: you only make one first impression, it's usually neutral or negative, and the feedback loop on gifting is one big, massive, complete lie.The 20% of factors responsible for 80% of the results must be prioritized. Identify your top 20% of people and spend your time and resources on them – this is where you get most of your money and get the most ROI, too.A promotion is typically a cheap item that is given in bulk and discarded quickly whereas a gift is a unique item that you keep and never forget – one makes a fantastic impression every day of the year, while the other one does not make one impression, so it ends up in the trash. “It's really about knowing your customer and what they like when we do our gift giving.” - Steve Buzogany Connect with Steve Buzogany:Website: https://appreciationadvocate.com/ Email: steve@appreciationadvocate.com  Connect with Adam J.
