Most brokers are taught to live and die by the “yes mentality”. But that mentality results in a scattergun approach. Because when you say yes to everything, you fail to prioritise. You fail to optimise your time and energy.

In this episode of Mortgage Broker Acceleration, James Veigli and Ash Playsted explain why saying no is so important. This may seem counterintuitive, but it’s the key to your health and success.
