Danny was casually watching YouTube and found a video of the growth and collapse of civilizations in Europe. What he found especially interesting was the huge expanse of the Roman Empire and its eventual decline. Similarly, Dan Sullivan's program called "Pure Genius" talks about self improvement and growth. In the last CD, Sullivan talked about how great civilizations started on top of the world but still fell apart. Why is that? Sullivan puts it like this: take something like the Roman Empire and and scale it down to you and your business. When an individual is at the top of their game at some point, inevitably, something is going to happen that makes you take a tumble. Whether this tumble will cause a downward spiral or not is entirely up to how you manage the situation. Sullivan says, "Progress stops when people stop being grateful. People come to a point when there's so much success that they start losing touch with what got them there." That's such an important lesson for anyone, let alone a real estate investor. When you're so used to looking far in the future and achieving huge goals that you're not noticing what you've accomplished, you're going to start getting overwhelmed and fall apart. Celebrate your wins more! After you close a deal, celebrate it. After you covert a lead, celebrate it! Take a second to see how hard you worked to get to this point. Look at all of the effort you put into a deal that you profited off of. See how far you've come and know that it took you time and effort to do it. You didn't get where you are now overnight. The most important thing to keep in mine is that you're doing well. You have a successful business that you built. Don't always look so far ahead that you lose sight of where you came from. You did it, and you're going to keep on doing it. What's your best win? Let us know in the comments, or in the Flip Pilot group on Facebook!
