The Real Estate Agent Academy: Learn how to start and grow your career as a Real Estate Agent to a Six-Figure Income, how to best build your network of clients, expand into luxury markets, and the exact steps I’ve used to grow my business from $0 to over $120 million in sales: https://goo.gl/UFpi4c
#1. Click the like button. Just kidding, the first thing to consider in your 20’s is learning to invest in yourself. While it often sounds cheesy, YOU are the investment with the highest ROI. Think of it almost like having a dull knife - while it still probably works, it’s not as good as it COULD be. So investing in yourself is a little like sharpening the blade to make it more effective at its purpose. Investing in yourself doesn’t need to be crazy complicated or expensive. It could be learning a new skill, reading a book on a topic you’re interested in, or investing your own time to understand something firsthand. At this time in your life, your skills are pretty much limitless…whatever you want to learn, it’s already there at your fingertips.
#2 Never get complacent and seek to constantly improve. You are always going to be able to do better and enhance your skills - there is always something more you can do as you get better at something. Complacency is probably one of the worst things to fall into, this literally ruins whatever momentum you’ve built up. There will always be a more effective way to do something - there will always be something new to try. And while the saying is very true, don’t fix what isn’t broken - things WILL change. What works now likely won’t work in 10 years. There will be adjustments that will need to be made. And by pushing yourself a little further and improving, you’ll stay at the top of the curve.
The reality is that if you don’t innovate or progress, there will be someone else who WILL…and that person will eventually outpace you. Because as you stay still, the world begins moving and changing without you and will soon leave you behind. So always aim to constantly be learning and improving, no matter what you’re doing.
#3 TAKE RISKS. Your 20’s are the best time for you to make the riskier business moves or take chances you wouldn’t ordinarily take. This is because while you’re in your 20’s, chances are you still have quite a few fallbacks in the event you fail. It’s still socially acceptable to move back in with your parents if you need to. It’s okay to sleep on a futon mattress and eat ramen. And chances are, you don’t have the financial obligations that someone older would have. You likely don’t have the wife, kids, and mortgage to consider - because of this, now is the perfect time to take the risks that could potentially propel you much further in your career.
#4 Focus on what you’re most excited about. Your 20’s are the best time to do work on the projects you have fun with. By doing something you enjoy, it makes it so much easier to do well and excel in it. There’s nothing more disheartening than being forced into something you don’t want to do, and that alone has the potential to crush your enthusiasm and potential. Especially when you’re young and everything is new, you have the advantage of having that beginners excitement that’ll often push you beyond everyone else. Combine this with doing something you enjoy, and it’ll be much easier to break past any obstacles.
#5 Learn from your failures. This is easily the most important from all of this. You will fail along the way and you will make mistakes, but how you handle those mistakes is entirely within your control. In fact, if you go without failure, this could even be WORSE than having failed, because it’ll give you a false sense of confidence that anything you do will work, which is just not plausible long term. And this is easily the most important thing to do in your 20’s, because this will set the precedent for everything else going forward.

Just signed up for your course. Super excited
RBC is in LA and in my town I recommend opening an account with them for cool credit card.
My breakfast video for today! but but Graham, 5 ads breaks in 2's?
Thanks Graham
Very
32 people that will play it safe and never get anywhere
34 and still taking notes 📝
Why wasn't this taught in my 10's ? ; (
So Elon Musk has a false sense of confidence? Because pretty much almost everything he does goes well. Hahahahahahaha
Thank you for sharing Graham. No dislike, unsub here! I can say from personal experience that these things are applicable to success in ANY field – in my voice coaching/teaching, these very same principals have been game-changing!
The video would have been better if you didn't say "Just kidding" after your first explanation of point 1. Then straight into point 2 like it never happened.
"So number 1 the first and most important thing on this entire list is just click the like button. Number 2 is learning how to invest in yourself."
I fcked my 20s trying to okay catch up on my 30s those built bad habits hard to break tho especially when my income dropped from 50k to 30k 😐
I know this is really late but you were wrong about improving 1% a day for a year. Each day you grow in percent your value is worth more. So the second day it’s 1% of 101% day. This will add up with compound interest, so each day you get better by 1% in 365 days will be 3678.02% better than you were.
Wassa wassa wassa wassaaaaaaaap !!!
(I clicked the like button ) BECAUSE YOU TOLD ME TOOOOOOO (spongebob reference)
That lotus though 🤨😍 I will have one soon haha
What gets measured gets improved.
Any other 22 year olds here? 😏😄
Hey…going to Barnes and Noble is still a thing. 🙂

Hey, I came across your channel recently and you have great information! Decided to not go the college route and am now in the process of getting my real estate license at 20 years old; after reading so much negativity about the career your videos help keep me going after this goal. Thanks Graham!
I am so sorry grahm……. I already smashed the duck out of that like button…… I am so sorry
I am already in my 30ies… "WHAT AM I GANNA TO DO!!!!!"
