Skiing and commercial real estate have more in common than you might think. 🎿 Just like navigating a tough slope, every deal in CRE comes with its own challenges. You’ve got to read the terrain, anticipate obstacles, and adjust your course along the way. Some runs are smooth, but others have twists, turns, and steep drops that require skill and persistence to conquer. In both skiing and real estate, it's about preparation, strategy, and making quick decisions to stay on track. And when you reach the bottom, there’s nothing like the rush of knowing you’ve successfully made it through. 🏔️ How do you navigate the ups and downs in your deals? Here’s a picture of me in Zermatt, Switzerland. #CommercialRealEstate #Skiing #DealMaking #Persistence #Strategy

Ben Hunt-Davis, the captain of the British national men’s rowing team, faced consistent setbacks in 1998. To deal with the failures, Hunt-Davis came up with one simple rule. With every decision or activity, the team asked a brilliant question, “Will it make the boat go faster?” When facing the dreaded morning run, they asked, “Will it make the boat go faster?” When the team discussed going to the pub, they asked, “Will it make the boat go faster?” The focus of the team quickly moved to a single-minded objective. Yes, making the boat go faster. The result was the British men’s rowing team won the Olympic gold in Sydney, Australia in 2000. The first team to win gold for Great Britain since 1912. This is the approach I take when thinking about staffing, systems and processes, and the 100's of decisions we make every day as we support real estate leaders to increase profit, build wealth, and create freedom at Elite Real Estate Systems Today, look at your calendar for the week and ask yourself what’s causing your boat to slow down. Then make decisions on how to make your boat go faster?

Olympic Sailing 2024: Shifting Winds and Tight Battles As Medal Race Day Looms for Most https://ift.tt/1iBtvba Penultimate day of Olympic Sailing for the Mixed Multihull and Dinghy fleets lines up tense finals, while Medal Race for Men's and Women's Dinghy cancelled The planned Medal Races for the Women’s and Men’s Dinghy (ILCA 6 and ILCA 7) could not take place due to a lack of wind yesterday, so Wednesday will see four Olympic Sailing events conclude as Medal Racing for these Dinghies takes place in addition to Medal Races for the Olympic Mixed Multihull (Nacra 17) and Olympic Mixed Dinghy (470). Australia’s Matt Wearn, who leads the Men’s Dinghy standings, will have to wait to see if he can secure gold, while Cyprus’ Pavlos Kontides remains his closest challenger. In the Women’s Dinghy, the dominant Marit Bouwmeester of the Netherlands stands on the brink of becoming the most successful female sailor in Olympic history, with Denmark’s Anne-Marie Rindom poised for silver. For the Mixed Multihull and Mixed Dinghy fleets, the penultimate day of Olympic Sailing in Marseille was marked by light winds and high stakes as competitors completed the final races of the Opening Series. Here’s a roundup of the key events and standings ahead of the decisive Medal Races.

Despite a disqualification in race ten due to an early start, they bounced back with a strong second-place finish in race eleven, maintaining a 14-point lead. Tita remarked, “There’s not going to be a match race. We are going to try and control the situation based on the points we have. Second, third, and fourth will have a big battle, and we aim to stay out of that and focus on our race.” Argentina’s Mateo Majdalani and Eugenia Bosco sit in second, having delivered a consistent performance with a first and second place in the day’s races. Great Britain’s John Gimson and Anna Burnet, who climbed to third after a race win, are level on points with New Zealand’s Micah Wilkinson and Erica Dawson. Bosco said, “We had a really good day and we’re really happy. The conditions were tricky and unstable, but we managed well.” Photo: World Sailing / Lloyd Images Mixed Dinghy: Tight Contest Heading into Medal Race Austria’s Lara Vadlau and Lukas Maehr surged to the top of the Mixed Dinghy standings with a fifth and second place in the final races of the Opening Series.
