Learn from others' experiences, absorb their knowledge, then go build your own. That's the true essence of mentorship. It's not about them telling you what to do. It's about observing their actions, understanding their process, and extracting those invaluable lessons.

Tap into that wisdom, then apply it with your own flavor. That's how you truly leverage others' journeys for your own success.

Welcome to another incredible episode of the Butterfly Mindset podcast! Join your host Cyrus in San Diego as he sits down with his good friend, the phenomenal Jonathan Spears, to uncover the story behind his unprecedented rise. Jonathan isn't your typical success story, he's the number one large team in Florida at Compass, with over $2.5 billion in sales, who literally got his real estate license on his 18th birthday.

But his journey began much earlier. Jonathan reveals his mind-blowing path, starting with his decision to skip high school and enroll in college at just 14 years old, driven by a powerful desire for independence and a distaste for the traditional system. He shares how growing up during the 2008 financial crisis fueled his ambition, teaching him to turn adversity into an insane drive to succeed.

This episode dive deep into the philosophy of treating real estate like a professional sport, obsessed with building systems and processes to create a predictable, scalable business. Jonathan also explains how his proprietary software gives his agents a massive advantage, transforming them from hobbyists into a professional, data-driven sales machine. This is a masterclass in drive, innovation, and turning adversity into an unstoppable force.

It's a numbers game. You'll get "F off" more than "yes," but that's the point. Too many of you get paralyzed by the pushback. Every single "no" you get just means you're eliminating someone who wasn't your customer anyway, and you're getting one step closer to finding your actual people, your true audience.

Don't waste a second being bitter or discouraged. Just keep going. Your only job is to outwork the "no's" until you rack up the "yeses." Period.

I'm an extremist about real estate wealth. It's a fact, not opinion. I used to fear "selling," but now I just share. Too many of you are crippled by that same false narrative, worried people think you're just pushing product. Stop it! Once that deep-seated belief kicks in, that internal fear of being "salesy" vanishes. Because you're no longer focused on closing a deal; you're focused on genuinely helping people change their lives. That's the flip you need to make.

Listen up! This ain't complicated: your vibe attracts your tribe, and your tribe dictates your outcome. You can be the most optimistic person on earth, but if you're drowning in a sea of negative Nancys, their crap will eventually seep into your soul. Your mind is literally a sponge, absorbing everything around it. You want an abundance mindset? Then surround yourself with people who have an abundance mindset.

Audit your circle. Cut the energy vampires. Your future depends on it.

The biggest lie? "You can't always do what you want." My mom grinded six jobs to keep a roof over our heads because that's what she wanted for her family. Regret isn't about hard work, it's about playing someone else's game.

Stop chasing external validation. This ain't a dress rehearsal. This life's a one-shot deal. Own your choices.

Listen, the world ain't handing out trophies for potential. You felt judged? Good! Use that chip on your shoulder to outwork everybody. I don't care about your "background" or "choices." Show up, put in the reps, and make success your ONLY option. It's about grit, not gifts.

Agents think real estate is just client relationships. Don't forget it is B2B as well. Your network of agents, lenders, pros? That’s where big moves happen. Referrals. Collabs. Inside access.

Build with your peers, not just your leads.

Welcome to another impactful episode of the Butterfly Mindset Podcast! Join your host Cyrus as he sits down with his good friend, Southern California real estate titan Fred Sed. With a background spanning three generations in real estate and an upbringing steeped in sales, Fred shares his incredible journey from a self-proclaimed "broke as a joke" solo agent during the 2008 market crash to consistently closing over $100 million in sales annually with his team of 25-30 agents.

Fred dives into his "feast or famine" beginnings, detailing how relentless cold calling, open houses, and even 500+ rental transactions honed his skills and built his foundation. Discover how his pursuit of leverage for time and a desire to be present for his family led him to build a team, eventually partnering with industry giants like Ben Kenny and Chris Suarez to co-found Place, a national proptech company. Learn about Place's unique "brokerage agnostic" model, which he likens to Chick-fil-A, empowering real estate team owners with unparalleled systems, technology, and support to scale profitably.

This episode is a masterclass in adapting to industry evolution, from the rise of technology and AI's impact on agent productivity to the changing landscape of brokerages. Fred's philosophy extends beyond sales, emphasizing integrity, legacy, and the profound impact of helping others break through their limiting beliefs. Whether you're a seasoned pro or new to the game, Fred's raw honesty and strategic insights offer invaluable lessons on building a thriving business, embracing discomfort, and living a life of no regrets.
