  • Time Optimization — Do What Works For You | Monday Morning Pep Talk Episode #279
    May 11 2025
    Welcome to Episode 279 of Monday Morning Pep Talk. In this episode, we are talking about time optimization — and why the best way to manage your time is the way that actually works for you. There is no universal perfect system. True optimization is about building a rhythm that matches your style, protects your time, and ensures you stay productive and consistent without burning out. Elite advisors do not waste time chasing perfection — they simplify, eliminate, automate, and protect their most valuable resource. 👉 What You Will Learn in This Real Estate Productivity Training: 📌 The Myth of the Perfect System: Success comes from consistency, not complexity. Learn why your approach should fit your natural workflow — not someone else’s formula. 📌 10 Essential Time Optimization Strategies: From eliminating low-value activities to upgrading tech, automating tasks, and delegating wisely — these principles keep you in control of your time. 📌 Analog Meets Digital: Hear why even top producers use simple, analog tools to execute their daily plans — and why this balance helps maintain focus. 📌 Breaking the Scroll and Setting Boundaries: Social media, streaming, and interruptions can hijack your focus. Learn how to stop distractions and guard your calendar. 📌 The Power of AI and Delegation: Use AI and smart delegation to eliminate tasks below your profit per hour — buying back time to focus on what matters most. 📌 Reinvesting Saved Time: Understand how to take the time you save and pour it back into your personal well-being and high-value business activities. 👉 This Episode Will Help You: ✅ Stop chasing rigid routines and do what works for you ✅ Build a sustainable, repeatable rhythm for your day and week ✅ Eliminate busywork and increase time for revenue-generating activities ✅ Avoid burnout and maintain control of your time and priorities ✅ Reinforce that consistency — not perfection — is the key to scaling your business 💬 Ask Yourself: • Am I forcing a time management system that does not fit how I work? • Am I protecting my time — or letting distractions control my day? • Am I reinvesting saved time into what matters most? 📌 If you are uncertain, this episode will give you a better way forward. 🔗 Stay Connected with Jim Miller — Real Estate Coaching for Advisors: 📩 Join My Weekly Email → www.askjimmiller.com 📺 Subscribe on YouTube → www.youtube.com/@AskJimMiller 📲 Follow on Instagram → www.instagram.com/askjimmiller 🔗 Connect on LinkedIn → www.linkedin.com/in/jimmillerchicago

  • A Better Way to Track Your Production | Monday Morning Pep Talk Episode #278
    May 4 2025
    Better Way to Track Your Production | Monday Morning Pep Talk Episode #278 Welcome to Episode 278 of Monday Morning Pep Talk. This week’s episode is all about how to track your production in real estate — and more importantly, how to use your numbers to drive consistent, predictable growth. Top-performing advisors and elite entrepreneurs do not guess. They track, forecast, and hold themselves accountable to clear production targets. In this episode, I break down exactly how to do the same so you can scale your business, keep your pipeline healthy, and stop leaving your results up to chance. 👉 What You Will Learn in This Real Estate Productivity Training: 📌 12-Month Rolling Production: Understand how to calculate your real production pace and spot trends before it is too late. This method gives you a real-time view of your business health. 📌 The Proper Size of a Real Estate Pipeline: Learn why your active pipeline must be 1.5x your goal to avoid coming up short. I explain the math and mindset behind pipeline management for success. 📌 Creating Urgency in Prospecting: Avoid complacency. Discover how visualizing lost opportunities (literally) can push you to prospect daily and stay committed to your income goals. 📌 Gamify Your Prospecting to Stay Consistent: Borrowed from Atomic Habits, this simple trick turns outbound prospecting into a measurable and rewarding daily habit. 📌 Build a Massive Warm List: Future deals come from future relationships. I share why warm leads deserve more attention and how staying top-of-mind prevents pipeline gaps. 📌 Know Your Numbers Cold: Forecast like a CEO, not a salesperson. Use my framework to calculate exactly how many deals and leads you need — and track your production like a pro. 👉 This Episode Will Help You: ✅ Build a reliable and predictable real estate production system ✅ Stay accountable through visual tracking methods ✅ Eliminate dry spells with a deep, engaged warm list ✅ Reverse engineer your annual income goal into weekly and daily targets ✅ Take full ownership of your pipeline and sales process 💬 Ask Yourself: • Am I truly tracking my real estate business — or guessing? • Do I have enough in my pipeline to hit my income targets? • Am I creating urgency around prospecting every single day? 📌 If your answers are uncertain, this episode will shift how you run your business. 🔗 Stay Connected with Jim Miller — Real Estate Coaching for Advisors: 📩 Join My Weekly Email → www.askjimmiller.com 📺 Subscribe on YouTube → www.youtube.com/@AskJimMiller 📲 Follow on Instagram → www.instagram.com/askjimmiller 🔗 Connect on LinkedIn → www.linkedin.com/in/jimmillerchicago 🎧 Listen on Apple Podcasts → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ask-jim-miller/id1490481207

  • Ask The Right Questions | Monday Morning Pep Talk Episode # 277
    Apr 27 2025
    Welcome to Episode 277 of Monday Morning Pep Talk. This week is about clarity — how to find it faster and use it with purpose. For over a decade, I’ve been disciplined about planning and goal setting. But even with structure, I sometimes struggled to lock into clarity during my daily and weekly sessions. I was asking good questions — but not the right one. 👉 Then I found it — a question that now anchors my daily, weekly, and quarterly rhythm. 🧠 The Power of the Right Question: 📌 “If I were looking back on today/week/quarter, what would have to have happened — personally and professionally — for me to feel like I made meaningful progress?” Simple. Practical. A sledgehammer for focus. 📆 Daily | 🗓 Weekly | 📊 Quarterly This mindset — rooted in the 3-Year Vision philosophy from Strategic Coach — creates clarity that compounds over time. I break it all down in this episode and show you how to apply it across your entire business. 💼 For You, the Advisor: • Your outreach feels scattered • You're not sure where to start reconnecting • Your pipeline needs energy — and momentum You don’t need to do more. You need to start with better questions — to yourself and to your clients. 🔁 Your Reconnection Strategy: ✅ Leave a message or text: “I have a quick market update I think you’ll want to hear. Call me when you have a minute.” ✅ When they call back, say: “It’s been five years since COVID shifted the market. Based on the data, your home is likely worth between X and Y.” ✅ Then ask: “How is your home performing for you?” That single question opens the door to meaningful conversations — without sounding like a salesperson. Listen for life changes, log notes, follow up. Repeat across your Top 100. 🧘‍♂️ Composure isn’t passive. It’s practiced. 🛠️ This Episode Will Help You: ✅ Ask the right questions to unlock clarity ✅ Build a repeatable reconnection framework ✅ Turn small daily wins into quarterly momentum ✅ Reset your mindset with one powerful question ✅ Strengthen consistency — even during busy seasons 💬 Ask Yourself: Are you taking time to plan with intention? Are you clear on what “progress” looks like today? Are you showing up strong — or stuck in the noise? 📈 The momentum you want is on the other side of better questions. . 🔗 Stay Connected with Jim Miller: 📩 Join My Weekly Email → www.askjimmiller.com 📺 Subscribe on YouTube → www.youtube.com/@AskJimMiller 📲 Follow on Instagram → www.instagram.com/askjimmiller 🔗 Connect on LinkedIn → www.linkedin.com/in/jimmillerchicago
