altitude<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\nLots of people have loads of intelligence but don\u2019t have the right attitude. After training thousands of students, I\u2019ve noticed that the ones who succeed the most are often the ones with some warts on their resum\u00e9. It was their determination and attitude, not their lofty intelligence or blue chip education that brought them success.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m not smart, I\u2019m just seasoned. There\u2019s an old Spanish proverb they say here in Texas, and it goes like this: \u201cM\u00e1s sabe el diablo por viejo que por diablo.\u201d It means, \u201cThe devil knows more from being old than from being the devil.\u201d I started in the business at 20 years old and I had an Associate\u2019s Degree in Ranch Management, plus I was dyslexic; which is not exactly a recipe for success in the financial world. But I had an attitude that I was going to keep learning and keep trying. Now, after four decades in the note business I\u2019ve made plenty of mistakes, but I learned a valuable lesson from every single one.<\/p>\n
You don\u2019t have to know everything to do anything. We shouldn\u2019t be deathly afraid of making a mistake because every mistake you make is an opportunity to learn. I\u2019d even say that it\u2019s our mistakes that cause us to be the most successful. At NoteSchool we teach the building blocks for success. But you\u2019ll still make some mistakes during your career\u2014we just teach you how to avoid making any really expensive mistakes.<\/p>\n
Whether notes are a small sliver of what you do or the majority of what you do, ask yourself what is your purpose<\/em> for doing what you do? How important is your success? Then make sure to keep that purpose front and center in all your business dealings. Keep reminding yourself of the things that are most important to you and your family, and your attitude will improve.<\/p>\nIf I can control what I tell myself, I can control my attitude. That\u2019s why I say be very careful what you tell yourself. Why? Because you are listening!<\/p>\n
