Recently a client emailed me about how well she was doing this month and was hoping it would continue and that she was going to try to keep up with the increased business. Here was my response.

It's not about hope.  Keep watching the numbers and recording them.  The principle, "What gets measured gets done." is the truth.  Also, look or let's look together at where the business is coming from and create the strategy and system to keep it coming.  Then let's look at markets and other places you want to get business from and let's look at whether you want to create strategies and systems to generate those.  Also, let's look at the challenges of this flow and of a larger flow to be sure you can handle it or what you need to do to handle it.  Often an Agent reaches a glass ceiling and don't realize it until much later if ever (particularly if they are not measuring).
So, at the risk of dampening your enthusiasm over the current flow.  Hope has little or nothing to do with your continued success. 

We can make sure that it continues and grows.
(hope and try are two words that I notice are in the language of mediocre producers and people, so I am rather aware of them.  I say this with full awareness that we have a President who wrote a book entitled The Audacity of Hope.  But he talks about hope as, “It's the hope of slaves sitting around a fire singing freedom songs; the hope of immigrants setting out for distant shores; the hope of a young naval lieutenant bravely patrolling the Mekong Delta; the hope of a millworker's son who dares to defy the odds; the hope of a skinny kid with a funny name who believes that America has a place for him, too. Hope in the face of difficulty. Hope in the face of uncertainty. The audacity of hope!” 

And what he is really referring to is vision.  Hope keeps people from moving forward, expecting (hoping) a force outside of their control will save them.  Vision and imagining with expectation inspires people to take action and be responsible for their future.) 
So, let’s not hope your success continues.  Let’s imagine and envision what the continuance and growth will look like and turn that into the reality of your future.
