When I was in my early twenties, I had my mind on money and money on my mind. I believed that once I reached a certain amount of annual income, I would feel a certain way. For me, that number was $500,000. $500,000 = happiness. I had tied my future happiness and joy to seeing that number on my tax …
I’ve been in the real estate arena for 13 years now and early on I realized that if I wanted to achieve the levels of success I had envisioned, I would not be able to do it alone. When I graduated college, I started working as a commercial underwriter (which only lasted about six months before I was fired) and …
I just spent the past four days in New Orleans with 18,000 Keller Williams agents and associates. Three presentations, multiple masterminds, two team events, one book launch, and countless industry shaping announcements later, I am excited to get back to business and start implementing all that I learned at Keller Williams Family Reunion. The most exciting and interesting topic, of …

It officially released today and I am excited to share this message with other Founders and Entrepreneurs, and their fellow Force Multipliers and Executive Assistants (EAs). So, why The Founder & the Force Multiplier and …
Last week I attended my first Inman Connect event in NYC and it was an experience. All experiences (good or bad) are good in my book. And my first Inman Connect wasn’t half bad! When you put 4,000 agents, marketing and tech experts, and real estate industry leaders in one hotel for 5+ days, ideas are bound to be generated, …
Earlier this week I was in NYC for Inman Connect and one thing was clear: the real estate industry is in a full-on tectonic shift. Brad Inman equated it to a supernova. The old way of doing real estate is dead, yet the pieces that are left behind will shape how real estate is done today and for years to …
Tomorrow I am teaching one of my favorite KW University courses, Quantum Leap. Gary Keller, co-founder & CEO of Keller Williams, developed this course to dig into the power principles and disciplines that can help anyone achieve a more abundant life. This is not a real estate course, or even a business class, this is a life class. The goal …
Last week I celebrated my 10 year wedding anniversary with my beautiful wife, Sarah! And right now, I’m coming to you from a villa in Barbados where Sarah and a few of our friends are spending the week soaking up the sun, deep sea fishing, golfing, and of course, talking about life and business. I wanted to share with you …
At 7:44pm last night an email dropped into my inbox with news that will change the course of the real estate industry for the next several decades. Gary Keller is back as CEO of Keller Williams. The interesting thing is, he never actually left. He was simply behind the scenes, leading through others. Gary has built an incredible organization that …
I’ve been snowboarding for 22 years. Scratch that. I’ve been a snowboarder for 22 years. It wasn’t just a twice a month recreational activity for me. I’ve won a boarder-cross event and qualified for regionals (where I lost). I opened up a trail called OZ in the Chugach Myn range in Alaska – a trail only accessible by helicopter. To …
