✈️ Take Flight Weekly Episode #295: Planning vs. Procrastination – How Real Estate Advisors Turn Business Plans Into Action

On this 295th episode of Take Flight Weekly, I tackle one of the biggest traps holding back real estate professionals and entrepreneurs—mistaking endless planning for progress. Too often, business plans turn into procrastination tools. Advisors spend months tweaking spreadsheets, rewriting goals, and polishing strategies—but never actually execute. Elite brokers and top producers take a different path: they plan with purpose, then execute with discipline. In this episode, you’ll discover: -Why so many real estate professionals confuse planning with progress -The warning signs that your business plan has become procrastination -The difference between productive planning and perfection-seeking paralysis -How elite brokers and advisors shift from planning to execution -The 5-step system to make your 2026 business plan actionable 🎯 What You’ll Learn in This Episode: • How to set deadlines that move you from planning into execution • Why identifying your “vital few” priorities is critical for growth • The weekly accountability rhythm that prevents drifting • How to turn plans into habits, calendar blocks, and operating standards • Why accountability separates high performers from everyone else 👉 Here’s the truth: a real estate business plan only matters if you execute it. Greatness doesn’t come from endless planning—it comes from decisive, imperfect, consistent action. Your 2026 success won’t be defined by what’s written in your notes or spreadsheets. It’ll be defined by what you actually do. 🔔 SUBSCRIBE FOR WEEKLY REAL ESTATE COACHING New episodes every week with strategies, systems, and mindset coaching to help real estate advisors build predictable, enjoyable businesses. • Weekly Coaching Email → https://askjimmiller.com/contact/ 📲 CONNECT WITH ME Instagram → https://www.instagram.com/askjimmiller LinkedIn → https://www.linkedin.com/in/jimmillerchicago YouTube → https://www.youtube.com/@AskJimMiller 📚 RESOURCES FOR REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONALS • My 2024 Real Estate Reading List → https://askjimmiller.com/my-reading-list-2024/ • Business Planning Docs + About Me → https://askjimmiller.com/take-flight-2/
