Be patient and stay committed as you overcome each obstacle in the selling process

Every great athlete, businessperson, or great individual had to stretch and reach for his or her goals. They know that obstacles are a part of the goal achievement process and so they focus on succeeding rather than on what may be keeping them from succeeding.

It means overcoming hardships and setbacks, rather than giving up at the first sign of opposition or misfortune. Selling your own home is no different.

To do this you have got to be willing to take some calculated risks and be prepared to fall down from time to time. As kids we made mistakes all the time, that's how we learnt. However, as adults we have a thing called "pride" and we hate making mistakes.

Think of when you first learnt to ride a bike - you fell down, you got up, you fell down, you got up, and you kept getting up until you mastered it. You didn't give up. If one way didn't work you tried another way until you finally got the hang of it.

Obviously, with selling your own home you don't want to be trying forever. This manual will give you the helping hand you need, but you still need to be prepared to pick yourself up and move forward under your own steam.
