Greetings and welcome to the Real Estate Entrepreneur Podcast, I am your host Peter Lorimer, former hit record producer, now host of the show Stay Here on Netflix and owner LA’s most creative boutique real estate firm, PLG Estates.

I've stayed offline for a moment - we've been dealing with so many problems as a country, and I felt it was right to tighten the reins a bit.

But I've been getting loads of questions, and believe that now it's time to address some of them.

A common theme running throughout my DMs, emails, and messages is motivation..."How do you stay motivated?"

The news fills us with dread - because all of this is massive. So how in the world are we to stay motivated?

Stick to your schedule. Honestly, you could stop here. You do this, you'll stay in action and you'll stay motivated.

My literature teacher told me the story of a successful British writer who worked from home. Every single day, he rose at 7:30, ate breakfast, showered, and dressed. And then at 10:30, he began writing. Many times he had no idea what he was writing. But he wrote.

Me? I wake up at 5, workout, shower, breakfast, and then I get to work.

And honestly, I'm busier now than I've ever been. There's no drive time, and I'm filling that extra space with productivity.

I refuse to let negativity in.

I've always believed we should be intentional and positive, and that definitely doesn't change now. Focus on the light.

This industry doesn't get to chart the course for me. I get to do that.

Focus on the light, choose action, and use this time well (if you can). Don't waste any time. Don't wait for this to end - act now.

You'll find me amping up my creative, dreaming of new marketing strategies, and putting those dreams to work. Listen to this week's podcast for motivation and positivity.

Golden nuggets from this episode:

[01:56] “I’m working longer hours than I worked in a while because there’s no drive time anymore.”

[04:09] “Action will always outweigh thinking”

[06:43] “I refuse to let the negativity in, I’m not saying there isn’t negativity there, I just don’t let it in.”

[07:33] “We can all sense what’s occurring, so we either stand back and cross ou fingers, or we adjust our mindset.”

[10:26] “I’m not a ‘waiting for it blow over’ kind of guy.”

[11:28] “I don’t wait for the world to navigate me, I navigate me.”
