It's A Group Effort

Summary:

“It's a group effort.” Those were just a few of the amazing words shared by Phillies first baseman Rhys Hoskins on Monday, October 3rd, late in the evening after the Phillies had defeated the Houston Astros three to nothing to finally make the playoffs. Today is an awesome day, and I'm so excited to bring you guys this episode.

Phillies in the playoffs in 2022

Today is 11 years to the day since the last time the Phillies were in the playoffs. There's a reason I want you to hear what Rhys Hoskins said. Announcer Pat McCarthy, who was interviewing Rhys Hoskins, said to him, “This is a long time coming, isn't it?”

Rhys Hoskins, who has been with the Phillies for six years, said with tears in his eyes, “You know, it's a group effort. This is why we play. Lots of blood, sweat, and tears to get here.” He was literally crying on TV. It was pretty emotional.

Yes, I love sports. Yes, I love the Phillies, but I love the lessons of the work you have to put in. Real estate takes effort. As things start to move and shake and shift, it's going to take possibly more effort to be a Realtor, right? We've talked about this a little bit. You're not gonna throw a sign in the yard, walk away, and it's sold in a day. It's just not happening anymore. You have to put in the effort.

Rhys also didn't stand there and say, "Yep, I'm amazing. Look what I did. I got us to the playoffs." He talked so much about the people around him. In the same way, if you want to have success as a Realtor, you have to have a great group around you.

So think about this in your real estate business. Do you have a team around you? Are you working hard and putting in that blood, sweat, and tears, and do you have a great group around you, coaching you, encouraging you, helping you grow in your business? You need a good team around you. You need support, you need encouragement, and you need to put in the hard work.

Thanks for listening. Go Phillies, and I'll see you guys on our next episode.
