Yesterday I was on the phone with a real estate coaching client. He was telling me how he'd had a string of prospects walk away from him recently.

I attend a weekly mastermind group. Each person comes to the meeting with a "burning" question. This week someone asked what she would need to do in order to make a half-million dollars a year in real estate. Great question, right? I won't bore you with our discussion, but I will tell you that it...
