25 | Become a High Performer: 4 Habits That Will 10X Your Impact

🔥 Want to 10x your results? It starts with this truth: high performance isn’t about talent. Or even mindset...it’s about habits. Hey there, Rainmakers! Today I’m sharing the mindset, energy, focus, and discipline that actually separates top performers from everyone else. I’m not talking about cheesy affirmations or surface-level strategy. I’m talking about building a way of being that becomes habitual—a way of living that magnetizes results, energy, clarity, and impact. This episode is a personal one. Because the truth is, I wasn’t always this way. I had to train myself to think differently. To stop wasting time. To claim the level of clarity and productivity required to lead, coach, and live in full alignment. Whether you’re a loan officer, team leader, or entrepreneur—if you want to be the best of the best, this episode is your roadmap. What we talk about: Why “just having a better mindset” isn’t enough—and what to do instead. The #1 focus of high performers that average producers ignore. How to generate energy on command (and why it matters more than strategy). The critical difference between being busy and being productive. How the Catalyst Planner and a simple “Top 3” can transform your year. Why journaling + self-awareness might be your most powerful growth tools. Are you ready to make it rain? Let’s do this!
