Episode 47: Projects That Jerry And Jacobe Are Working On

The Epic Agent Success Podcast

In this episode of The Jerry & Jacobe Podcast, Jerry and Jacpbe are sharing what they are personally working on and where they are going with it. This is a snapshot of what Jerry and Jacobe are up to, their projects, and how things are going at the start of the year. Are you needing some inspiration? Tune in now.

Episode Highlights:

• 2021 was odd, and Jerry didn’t hit his business goals. When he looked back at it and realized that, he only basically worked half a year because they had about six months of pretty substantial disruption that they had to work through.
• Jerry has started staying focused on what they have going on. He broke his day down into 15-minute increments and knew what exactly he was doing every 15 minutes.
• Jacobe didn’t hit his goals in 2021 and discusses the challenges of the year.
• Jacobe feels terrific about the path that they are set on at the moment because he is definitely on the right track now, especially with the real estate team and then moving forward with goals and health, too.
• Jerry implemented a rule last week coming out of his time study: He is not allowed to talk about homework in the truck with his son, and explains why.
• Everybody thinks they are multitaskers, and multitasking is good, but we are not good multitaskers. No matter how much you think you are, you are not a multitasker, says Jacobe.
• You need to focus on what you are good at and get it done.
• With time studying, Jerry doesn’t have to have anxiety or stress or even spend bandwidth thinking about what he is doing tomorrow because it’s already laid out.
• Keeping your word is a big deal, but there will be times when you can’t keep your word, and it could be a fault of your own, or it could be a fault of circumstance, says Jacobe.
• Stay with the deadline because what builds trust with people is that you come to them before the deadline comes up, suggests Jacobe.
• It is crazy how our businesses and paths are so similar. There are so many similarities in how we do a lot of the same things, like your team structure and my team structure are almost identical, says Jerry.
• Real estate and the world are changing, and you have to adapt to everything, and just doing business with your clients in the small group of people you come in contact with is what Jacobe thinks is a disservice.
• If you end up with an agent that messes you up, that is your fault because you didn’t let him know that this is what you do, says Jerry.
• The greatest commandment is the love of God. Love God with all your heart, soul, mind, and with all your strength. And the second commandment is to love your neighbor as yourself.
• The thought in the book The Starfish in The Spider is that if you cut a starfish in half, you get two starfish because a starfish has everything it needs to reproduce if you cut it in half. But with a spider, if you crush the head of a spider, the spider is dead, and so that’s kind of the thought process you want to have.
• Jerry is working on Vivid vision, and that is creating a story of something that you want in the future, but you create the story as it’s attained, so, you put yourself in the present tense of that situation.
• When you are putting yourself in one situation more and more and more, then it just becomes natural, says Jacobe.
• As per Jacobe, you don’t plan to fail, and even no matter where you go, you are going to be a better person because of making plans and then committing to them.

3 Key Points:

1. Jerry is working on something that is building the business, he needs to be 100% focused on that. If he is working on something in business-like prospecting, then the hour needs to be dedicated to prospecting.
2. When you start getting complex and start trying to build something big and be worth something, you cannot operate in the lazy mentality, says Jacobe.
3. A person who always keeps their word is almost certainly living a too-small life. Thus, you will not always keep your word unless you play a small game in life. However, it is always possible to honor your word.
