Leasing Tip of the Day: Invest 3% of Your Income in Yourself
Leasing Tip of the Day: Invest 3% of Your Income
Jim Rohn, a great business philosopher, had a powerful formula:
For every 3% of your current income you invest in educating yourself, you’ll see a 25% increase in your income the next year. That’s a fantastic return on investment.
But beyond the money, continuous learning keeps you fresh, energetic, and enthusiastic about your trade, sustaining your retail leasing career for the long haul.
Most companies will cover some educational and networking events locally, and some may help with industry events outside your area. Very few will cover all your training needs. Don’t let this stop you. You are the CEO of your future! Don’t settle, and don’t coast. Coasting only leads downhill.
After about five years in any career, you might hit a wall. Rockstars anticipate this and reinvigorate themselves by consistently learning something new.
Set aside 3% of your earnings for professional development. Use it to stay fresh and energized. Read books by industry leaders, attend intriguing conferences, and have coffee with respected industry veterans.
That 3% investment is one you will never lose. It’s the key to long-term success and growth in your career.
