How To Overcome Failure as an Estate Agent
In this short read, our Elite Performance Coach Rob Brady, runs through 5 key habits to overcoming failure so you can unlock true greatness inside you.
Everyone hates to fail but what most people don’t realise is that failure is actually part of success. Anyone who has ever succeeded has failed many times. So, how do you overcome failure?
Learn from your mistakes and failures.
How did you learn to ride a bike? The short answer: you fell off 100 times. Every time you make a mistake or fail, always see it as a learning experience instead. The more you understand and learn from it, the better you will be prepared next time.
Action Step: Write down the top five things that you learnt from your last mistake or failure.
Don’t dwell on It.
Now that you have learnt something from your mistake, move on. Don’t dwell on your past. You can’t tell where you are going if you are looking backwards. Also, dwelling on your past failures will keep you in the prison right where you are.
Action Step: Read what you have written down in Key 1 (The 5 things you learnt).
Don’t Be Afraid to Try Again.
Don’t let the fear from your last failure stop you from reaching your greatness, achieving your goals, dreams, or full potential. Just like learning to ride that bike, you didn’t fall once or twice and then give up.
Action Step: Take what you have learnt and try it again now that you are better prepared.
Surround yourself with positive people.
No matter what it is that you are trying to achieve, surround yourself with successful people that have done what you want to do or join a community of people who want to grow. One of the best ways to overcome failure is to learn how other people just like you overcame failure. This will not only encourage you but give you proof that it can be done.
Action Step: Find a person or a group of people who are successful and get in and around them as soon as possible.
Realise that failure is part of the learning curve.
Failure and mistakes aren’t fun, but they are what help us learn to be great at whatever it is we are trying to achieve. “There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure.”
Action Step: Think back to a time where you succeeded. Then think how many times you failed or made mistakes to get to that success.
Now that you have these, go out there and just do it! You have a seed of greatness inside of you. Help it grow and don’t let anyone or anything stop you from reaching your full potential in life.
