As I reflect on my 40 years in the real estate business, there are countless lessons that come to mind. Some were learned through success, others through failure, and many through simply paying attention to the people who have crossed my path along the way. One lesson rises to the top of the list. Nothing … Continue reading The Privilege of Being Trusted
One of the more interesting observations I’ve made over the course of my career is that success and comfort often arrive at the same time. Unfortunately, so does complacency. It makes perfect sense when you think about it. We work hard to achieve a goal, build a successful business, establish a reputation, earn a level … Continue reading The Hidden Cost of Being Comfortable
As we head into the Easter holiday weekend, I find myself thinking about the idea of renewal. Not in the traditional sense, but in the way it quietly shows up all around us this time of year. The days stretch a little longer. The air feels a little lighter. There’s a shift in energy that’s … Continue reading A Season of Renewal
Every so often we find ourselves operating in a moment where the broader narrative around us feels unsettled. Headlines talk about volatility in the markets, uncertainty in the economy, global tensions, shifting policies, or some unexpected event that captures everyone’s attention. When these moments arise, they can have a powerful psychological impact on our clients. … Continue reading The Psychology of Uncertainty
This week, I want to talk about something I’m asked fairly often: “What do you recommend that I read, watch, or listen to that can help me grow my business?” I’m always thrilled when someone asks me that question, for two reasons.

As we come to the close of another year, I want to pause for a moment and simply say thank you. Thank you for the effort you put in when no one is watching. Thank you for the long days, the problem solving, the persistence, and the professionalism you bring to your clients and to … Continue reading Closing the Book on 2025
One of the things I am most proud of at Intero is that we genuinely care about our values. We talk about them often and, more importantly, we believe in them. But over time, I have learned something important. Values alone do not create results. Habits do. Values are intentions. They reflect what we believe … Continue reading Turning Values into Habits
Every year, as we enter the final stretch of the calendar, I bring out a personal checklist I call my List of 20 Things. It’s a reminder to focus on small, intentional actions that add up to big results, in business, in health, and in life. These are the habits and mindsets that finish the … Continue reading 20 Things to Focus on in the Final 90 Days
Every year, right around the first week of July, I carve out some quiet time to run a personal “half-time” assessment. Just like a great coach makes adjustments during halftime to turn the tide of the game, I use this moment to recalibrate my goals, identify opportunities, and lay out a game plan for the … Continue reading Halftime Adjustments
