Navigating a Busy Mind
The mind is powerful. It can be easy to trick yourself into thinking you’re not good enough, but when you change your thoughts, you can calm your busy mind and feel happier!
What is “Imposter Syndrome?”
Feeling like your accomplishments and talents aren’t legitimate, despite the opposite being true.
Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Life
Social media can lead to a lot of the self doubt behind Imposter Syndrome, and the average person spends 145 minutes a day on social sites. Tip: Let go of negative posts that tend to stick around. This gets easier when you limit scrolling time and replace it with an interesting read, uplifting podcast, or a walk.
Because of Imposter Syndrome, people may hold themselves back from opportunities they’re qualified for out of fear of not having the skills. Tip: Focus on the skills you do have and the accomplishments that shaped them. Remember who you are and what you achieved to get to where you are.
Dwelling on past mistakes is common with Imposter Syndrome and often diminishes confidence moving forward. Tip: Recognize how you’ve grown from past failures and mistakes instead of ruminating on the events themselves.
When you need to quiet your mind:
- Talk with a friend or mentor who knows your achievements.
- Journal about your accomplishments and growth.
- Lift your mindset with an activity you love, like walking, reading, or cooking.

Why Does RE/MAX Results Stand Out Among the Competition?
Simply put: Relationships. We pride ourselves not only in our professional service but more importantly in the personal touch we bring to our business. Has an agent/lawyer/contractor/vendor ever treated you like you were just another paycheck? The reason our clients come back time and again and refer all their friends and family to us is because they know we are part of the family.
Genuinely caring about the people we serve enables us to do things other agencies can’t. Rest assured, we will ALWAYS have your best interest at heart and work vigorously to get you the best deal possible on your home or business. The relationships we build with our clients enable us to work 100% by referral. The reason we are able to give top notch service to our clients is because our clients refer us a constant stream of quality family and friends to assist in their real estate needs. While other agents are out making cold calls and chasing “potential” leads, we are freed up by our referral base to service our clients like no other broker can. We are never too busy for your referrals!
