Essential Traits: Why You Need to Be a Visionary

March 26, 2020

About This Episode

I just wrapped up an awesome podcast episode with Gino Wickman on Tuesday.

And one of the things he shared really hit home for me…

Gino talked about the “6 essentials traits” every entrepreneur MUST have.

(Without these 6 traits, it’s very hard to succeed at running your own business.)

These traits go deep.

They aren’t surface-level skills you can pick up from a self-help book.

They’re innate. They’re core to who you are.

And they’re absolutely critical to success.

But when I first got into real estate investing more than 5 years ago, I didn’t know anything about these “traits.”

I didn’t know what it meant to be a “visionary,” for example.

And I’m sure I’m not the only one.

I know a lot of investors are hearing this stuff for the first time right now…

And it just so happens that there are 6 incredible entrepreneurs on the 7 Figure Flipping board of directors who are shining examples of each of these characteristics Gino talked about.

So over the next couple weeks, I’m doing something special.

I’m going to sit down with all 6 of these guys and gals to dig into what these essential traits are, why they matter, and how you can apply them on your own entrepreneurial journey.

Let’s start with the “visionary” trait.

In today’s episode of the 7 Figure Flipping podcast, I’m bringing on one of the most visionary people I know.

His name is Adam Rae.

Adam is kind of the “Elon Musk” of real estate investing.

He’s been on the podcast before…

…but this time, we’re entering some uncharted territory.

We’re breaking down what it means to be a “visionary” leader and how Adam has honed and developed this trait into a superpower over the course of his life.

The story starts when Adam was 10 years old…

And it involves a bunch of old golf balls…
