This was in a recent newsletter from one of my all time, favorite real estate coaches Floyd Wickman.  This not only pertains to real estate agents but to everyone who wants to make something of themselves.

                          Great RESULTS are the sum of small things done well, repeatedly.

Too many people are looking for that magic pill, or that one big thing.  If I were to offer you a penny or a million dollars, which would you choose? If you chose the million--welcome to the majority.  But consider if I were to make it a condition that you would not get either for 30 days; during which time, I would double the value of the penny every day.  At the end of the month, the penny would be worth $5,368,709.12!  You would have turned down over $4 million dollars!  Those small things add up when you multiply your efforts.

I believe the right person, doing the right things well, often enough, guarantee great results.  Assuming you are the right person, and you know how to do the right things well, the big question is: are you doing the "small things" often enough?
