Set Up Two New Classes - Weekend Challenge
From the archive. I first wrote this in February 2014 on my old blog. Some of the tools, names, and numbers have changed since, but most of it holds up.
Expanding your knowledge base and comfort zone are important to continued personal and professional growth. It can also be a boost to your business. So, signing up for two new classes is this week's challenge.
- Personal Enrichment
The first class shouldn't be real estate related. Think ballroom dancing, cooking, photography, or something like that. Make it fun. Look at your local community college's continuing education classes for some great ideas. You never know, but you might find a great new hobby and meet some potential clients in the process. Don't go into it for business reasons though.
- Professional Development
The second class should be all business. Whether it's the beginning of a new designation or just a piece of technology you've been wanting to learn, make it about expanding your skill set and potential for making more money.
Easy enough, right? Have a success-filled weekend.
