Value time, more than money and possessions. You can get more money, land, possessions and opportunities. But you can't get this moment back. The time that passes belongs to death, every moment spent is being purchased with your life. Spend it well and spend it intentionally so that one day you can reflect on your investment with a smile rather than regret.

The Front Stage/Back Stage model is what we use to ensure that our team is creating value for our agent-clients.

Define what success means to you. Success can only be achieved when your definition of success is your own, you must be self-determined. Being successful at someone else's vision of your life is a losing proposition. Know what matters to you. Be clear about what you value and hold dear. Determine what your version of a life well-lived looks like and then set out to accomplish it. Measure only against your self-determined reference points. Play your game and don't be distracted by the crowd - most of them have no clue where they're headed.

Join Dylan as he talks to Whitney Funkhouser, Director of Growth and Recruiting, about her value creation mindset and what it means to have a "no entitlement" attitude.
