Winston Churchill was one of many who said "those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it".
However, what is history? Isn't it yesterday? Or last week? In other words our history is simply our own past.
I've been fortunate enough to speak to many agents this year who've had one of their best years financially. The one thing they all seem to share is they did not "hope" things would change. They made changes.
Some hired coaches. Some prospected areas they never worked before. Some took a training class to get back to basics. Some increased their mailings. Some increased their phone calls. Oh by the way, they all experienced challenges along the way.
Floyd says we can't control "the" economy but we can control "our" economy.
My congratulations go out to all those agents (and companies) that had a great year. I wish you continued success in 2010.
For those of you who would like 2010 to be your best year, maybe it's time to change something.
Remember that if nothing changes, well then nothing changes!
