On top of my success in real estate I appeared on HGTV, FOX News, CNBC, and CNN as a sought after real estate expert. I believed my achievements were due to hard work and knowing my product and I still believe that. Along with a positive attitude, I possess an abundance of energy that drives me to achieve. That’s not a bad thing, but it is critical we see both sides of the coin, no matter if you are climbing the mountain or sitting at what you think the top is. I learned this the hard way.
Drive, Focus, and Goals were the easy part for me. Success bread more success and it was my desire to be the best. Attaining my goals kept me moving forward in a positive way. Drive and focus come easy to me. However, receiving a conviction for willful failure to file taxes in 2015 and spending time in prison it made it clear that my life plan had gone off the rails and I had created a great business with no solid foundation.
My parents taught me to be positive and believe in myself and I used these guiding principles in everything I did. I still believe in them today in spite of setbacks that have changed my life. By remaining positive and focused, I have turned things around and I’m happy to share my experiences with others so they can avoid the mistakes that led to my stumble.
