The Real Truth About Building Success: It Takes Time, Consistency, and Dedication Success doesn’t happen overnight. Here’s why the journey to building a business is a marathon, not a sprint.
When we first started in real estate, our journey was far from glamorous. Year one? We did one sale at under $150,000. Year two, we did $2 million in volume. Then $3 million, $5 million... and for the first seven years, we couldn’t break the $10 million mark.
It wasn’t until year eight that we finally broke $10 million, hit $17 million, and eventually reached $46 million in volume. But let me be clear: this was a 15-year journey. A lot of people expect to hit big numbers right out of the gate, and I get it. Some people are absolute legends and crush it right away. But that wasn’t us.
The first five years were a total mess—we couldn’t pay bills, struggled just to survive. The next five years? We got better with money and started to save a little. It wasn’t until the last five years that we really started seeing the payoff for our hard work, consistency, and dedication.
Here’s the truth: business success takes time. If you’re thinking about being an entrepreneur, especially in real estate or any field, you have to decide that you’re in it for the long haul. You have to be willing to stick with it for 10, 15, even 20 years if that’s what it takes. There will be tough times. There will be hardships and times when you don’t make any money. It won’t always be smooth sailing. But if you stay consistent and keep showing up, your financial gains will grow. Opportunities will open up. And your life will improve.
The key to success is simple: Don’t quit. Stay dedicated. Stay consistent. Keep working hard, even when it feels like you’re not getting anywhere. Over time, your perseverance will pay off, and you’ll be able to look back and see just how far you’ve come.
If you’re ready to put in the time and effort, the rewards will follow. Your future self will thank you.
