Monday Morning Match is a quick post – maybe a quote, inspirational story or idea – intended to spark some motivation inside each of you so your week gets off to a fantastic start on Monday morning.

WGCBII attended the final round of the Bridgestone Invitational in Akron with my son, Ryan. This is the fourth and final World Golf Championship event of the season. Any time you can witness the best in the world in a given industry up close and personal, it’s a great opportunity to learn something.

The World Golf Championship events are always an all-star field, composed of most of the best players in the world at the moment because it includes:

  • Playing members of the 2014 US & European Ryder Cup Teams
  • The Top 50 players in the current World Golf Rankings
  • Tournament winners in the last year
  • Major Tournament champions in several world Open or Tour Championships

Oh, and did I mention that none of the contestants get cut and everyone who finishes earns a paycheck? The winner this past week earned $1.570,000 while the guy who came in last place (77th) still earned $40,750. In other words, these guys had a guaranteed payday for playing this week.

Are You Ready to Tee It Up with the All Stars of Real Estate?

If you really think about it, the world of real estate isn’t that much different than The Bridgestone Invitational. After all…

  • Each day you go to work, you have an opportunity to earn a paycheck.
  • If you practice hard and are willing to put in the time, you’ll be welcomed to compete with the best of the best.
  • If you “show up” every day and accomplish what is required of you, you will be accepted back tomorrow.
  • The best will be rewarded for their expertise, experience and effort.
  • The fans will recognize you as one of the elite, cheer your actions and want to support you.

Not to mention, you’ll get to play a pretty sweet golf course four straight days.

Until your next tee time…or listing appointment, keep building relationships, solving problems and having fun.
