There’s a little-known fact that the section of The ONE Thing called “Big is Bad” almost didn’t make the final cut of the manuscript. It wasn’t until getting some last-minute buy-in from everyone involved in the project that it was placed back in the book for publication. And that wasn’t as easy as you might think. 

When people think of military-style leadership, they imagine orders shouted, and orders being followed with a Yes Sir! The standard format for any bad situation would be for someone to come in, take control, and tell people what to do. But in his book Turn the Ship Around, Captain David Marquet challenges this “leader-follower” style. 

If you missed Family Reunion’s sold-out CEO Summit this year, or got lost in the rain, you’re in luck. We’re here to open our notebooks and share impactful takeaways from each dynamic speaker. 

We’ve all experienced Imposter Syndrome. It’s the voice in our head telling us we don’t know what we’re doing, that we don’t belong, or that others are better than us. If we listen to it, we can let self-doubt take over and struggle to move forward when faced with a difficult task. Like, writing this blog right now. I have FEELINGS. How can I possibly make this a unique perspective, keep it professional AND provide actionable insights? Well, I can reframe my thoughts in a more productive way. I’m getting out of my comfort zone, and isn’t that the goal?

There’s a difference between having financial riches and having financial wealth. To have riches is to have money. You can work a 9-5 job each and every day of your life and earn a lot of money. Do this, and sure, you’ll be considered “rich.” But what happens to the money coming in when you stop working? 

Gary and Jay write in The Millionaire Real Estate Agent that “Because Millionaire Real Estate Agents have made a commitment to succeed through others, they will continually need to look for talent,” (p. 203). This means “building your bench” and consistently looking for people who could be great additions to your organization, should the opportunity arise. 

Planning mode is on for this year. Champagne (or sparkling cider) has been  popped, resolutions made, and many of us are already starting on our goals for the upcoming twelve months. But before we get too deep into things, it’s important we look back at last year. When we take  inventory on what we accomplished, what we fell short on, and where we are at, it will help us better tackle what’s next. 

Wow, what a whirlwind! This year was fun, inspiring, challenging, and an overflow of other adjectives. To celebrate another 365 days doing what we enjoy most (providing you with inspiring and educational content), we want to look back at our most-loved articles from this year. 

The holidays are supposed to be the happiest time of the year. But for many of us it’s an extremely stressful time when our busy schedules are stretched to the brink.

December is a special time of year. There’s holidays, end of year wrap-ups, and of course, planning for the new year ahead. We probably begin to imagine grand aspirations and visions for ourselves in the upcoming year. Yet, sometimes we fail to plan how we are going to accomplish said visions. Yes, this is just another “how to be a better version of yourself” article that comes out mid-December right before you settle on your New Year’s Resolutions – but I would like to share how I actually did it in 2025, in hopes that you can do the same. 

Digital natives. Realists. Diverse. Whatever comes to mind when you think of people born between 1997-2012—or as they are more popularly known, Gen Z—the truth is that this generation is a growing audience for real estate. In fact, Gen Z makes up 26 percent  of home buyers in today’s market; a higher percentage than previous generations when they were in the same age range.
