As a real estate agent, I know the importance of the Law of Attraction. Perhaps you have heard of this law, which simply states that whatever you want to bring into your life you can, if you focus your thoughts on that desire. How does this relate to real estate? No matter who you are from a mortgage broker to someone using a quick claim deed, the bottom line is the same: think about what you want in order to get what you want.

If you focus on what you lack, you will just lack more so. On the other hand, if you find a way to focus on appreciation of what you have, then you end up getting more of what you want. All you have to do is to focus all of your energy and your thoughts (as well as your actions) on what you want, and it will come to fruition.

If this seems too good to be true, or it seems impossible to appreciate something you don't have yet, consider the number of desires you have. There are so many things that you want, and you'll never be able to fulfill them all. Can you image living a life where you have fulfilled all of your desires? It would be a very boring life if you had nothing left to achieve. Another way to see this is to notice that desires are not something that you lack. They are a promise of something that is still to come.

In real estate, consider the abundance mentality carefully. It's important to keep yourself on track. I've been caught being lazy when it comes to brushing up on my real estate education, for example, or learning something new as an investor. I believe that there are so many opportunities that you will never run out.

There have been times in my life when I have had the mentality of scarcity. I was afraid of not having enough money or other resources just running out. When you do this, you are being weak, rather than harnessing your strength. This hurts you, just as it hurt me. When you realize that there is no lock, that there are only desires that haven't been fulfilled, you can enjoy life and appreciate it, as well as appreciate anything that you already do have.

There are some exercises you can do to reach this level. For example, try this. Take a few minutes each day to notice some of the things throughout your life that you normally miss and appreciate them. For example, do you appreciate the fact that you have a home over your head? Have thought about the benefit of having running water? Appreciate how soft and warm your bed is at night. When you do activities like this, you head to solidify your appreciation for life around you. Imagine the void they would cause if you did not have them! Think like this as often as possible, making it a habit. You can learn to think like this, but it is a learned activity.

As a real estate investor, or anyone within the mortgage industry, you may be thinking, "This person wants me to just be happy with what I've got." That's not the case. Rather, once you enjoy the things you have, realize that you are also able to fully anticipate everything that you desire. When you take the time to appreciate what you have, this will lead you to experiencing everything you want, too.

In the world of real estate, it can be hard to have these positive thoughts. But, keep it simple: know what you want and go after it. Your life becomes what you think about. Just make the decision to think about abundance in your business.

For those looking to learn how to do this, here's a great book I've read, "Change Your Mind, Change Your Life" written by Daniel Amen.
