About a year and a half into selling property, I received my first platinum sales award. It meant a lot.
Right after the ceremony, a senior partner I respect pulled me aside and said:
“Keep it up. You’ll find your stride in year three.”
At the time, I didn’t fully buy it. It felt like he was brushing off the run I was on, like it might just be timing.
Looking back, he was right.
I was focused on the win. He was focused on consistency. Real control in this business is knowing where your next five deals are coming from, not celebrating the last one.
That shift has taken time to sink in. He wasn’t downplaying anything. He was pointing out what’s possible when things start to click.
From January to April 2026, I’ve put five deals together:
• R2 500 000
• R1 890 000
• R1 250 000
• R960 000
• R970 000
This is usually where I would ease off a bit. Reset. Take it in.
Not this time.
This feels like the moment to lean in. To treat momentum carefully and keep it moving while it’s there.
When things start clicking, do you double down or stabilise?
I’ve decided to double down. Every time.
