Forget About It!

Today’s Daily Spark is titled “Forget About It,” a reminder not to dwell on last week’s setbacks but to embrace the opportunities of the new week with renewed vigor. As we reset for a new week, it’s crucial to shift our focus from what wasn’t accomplished to what can be achieved now. Last week’s failures, missed opportunities, and partial executions of our Daily Success Plan should not shadow our current ambitions.


In mortgage origination, as in many areas of life, a short memory for failure can be an asset. Dwelling on past mistakes only hinders our ability to progress. Instead, let’s adopt a forward-thinking mindset. If you didn’t fully engage with your Mortgage Marketing, your Daily Success Plan last week, this is your moment to recommit. This week is a clean slate, a new stage set for success, and a chance to engage fully with your tasks.


Thinking about last week’s failures as merely a step off the path, rather than a fall into a deep hole, can significantly lighten the psychological burden. It’s not about how deep you’ve fallen, but how quickly you step back on track. We haven’t dug ourselves into an inescapable pit; we’ve simply strayed from the path. This week, the goal is to realign with our plans and objectives.


Engage this week with the intent to execute every part of your Daily Success Plan thoroughly. Consider it a series of steps back onto the right path. This approach isn’t just about recovery—it’s about transformation and about turning past oversights into present strengths. Each day offers a new opportunity to improve, to grow, and to outdo ourselves from the week before.
So, as we start this week, let’s drop the baggage of yesterday. Let’s renew our commitment to our goals and to our professional growth. Remember, it’s never too late to correct our course and make significant progress. With a mindset focused on present action and future goals, there’s no limit to what we can achieve.


If you find yourself struggling to move past last week’s struggles, remember that help is at hand. Reach out to The Mortgage Marketing Animals for support in refining your strategies and staying on track with your Daily Success Plan. Let’s make this week count with a ferocious follow-up to all our pending tasks and new initiatives. Forget about last week’s troubles, and focus on making this week a substantial success.
