GRIT: The Real Estate Growth Mindset
Business
According to Google, the most searched job in the US today is a real estate agent. Becoming your own boss and earning substantially through commissions are just some of the things that make real estate an attractive profession to many people.
Yet, if a career in real estate is that good, then why do almost 90% of agents end up leaving the industry after being in it for just 5 years or less?
Finding success as a real estate agent is easier said than done. It takes a lot of hard work, discipline, and above all, you have to love what you’re doing in order to overcome challenges. And when you have that passion, and a coach who believes in you and will help keep you on track, you can excel at the highest possible level.

About the guest:
Monica Reynolds has a background in teaching. However, she didn't last long as a teacher because she felt that it just wasn't her thing. After getting married, she went looking for a house to buy and met a real estate agent. He wasn’t really a great agent, yet he was making a lot of money and has a nice car. She thought that if that agent can do it, so can she.
She then went on to become a successful real estate agent with Century 21 and worked for Mike Ferry’s coaching company for years. She also became the President of the Heller Real Estate Group, one of the most successful real estate teams in the US.
Monica also got the reputation of being the only agent at that time to delegate tasks she wasn’t particularly fond of doing to several assistants. She ended up writing a book on how to multiply your success through the use of assistants. That’s when she caught the attention of Gary Keller who invited her to be a part of the kW MAPS Coaching.
Today, Monica Reynolds is the Vice President at kW MAPS Coaching. She has garnered national recognition as a real estate seminar and convention speaker, trainer, and author. She is regarded in the industry as the leader of innovative real estate systems and effective team-building strategies that sustain successful real estate careers.
