Success holds different meanings for different people. In the world of real estate, success is often equated with financial gain and material possessions. However, we want to challenge this conventional notion of success. We’d argue that true success lies in finding a balance between faith, family, and vocation.


In today’s episode of the Faithful Agent podcast we emphasize the importance of understanding one's motivations and aligning them with a greater purpose. While financial success may be a part of the equation, it should not be the sole focus. Join me, Tyler and our special guest Remington Ramsey as we unpack what true success looks like to us.


Three Things You’ll Learn


The role of faith in defining true success. Being faithful is not mutually exclusive to having financial security.


How we can use money as a tool for positive change. We explore using success as a platform to impact people in a meaningful way

The word 'systems' can trigger a negative response among many agents, but here's the truth: systems are absolutely key for success. Systems appear in every part of our lives and are fundamental to achieving any goal. The resistance to systems can slow progress and limit success.


Why do so many people shy away from implementing systems when they are undeniably critical? Usually we avoid the things we don’t fully understand or have some misconceptions about. The reluctance to embrace systems could stem from the fear that systems are difficult or keep us from being creative.


In this episode Principal Broker/Owner at RVA Realty Mark Wilson joins us to talk about how systems can prepare us for business and help us navigate through struggles. We also talk about why so many people fail to implement systems and why we need to embrace them instead.



3 Things You’ll Learn

What do systems have to do with leads? 


Systems don’t need to be complicated.
Systems can be basic and still work for us so why do agents think complex is the answer?


Understanding how we’re wired.
How can we understand the way we’re wired and how the Lord made us? How can we become excellent at what He called us to do?
