Compromising your values every day is only going to be too much stress for you to handle.
It doesn't help even if it's the biggest real estate investing business deal out there.

In this episode, Paul shares how to go about the steps in zeroing in on your top five values - understanding them, defining them, taking action on them, and scoring them based on how you're living them right now. He underscores how your personal life should mirror your real estate investing business belief system to help you find the right real estate investing match and partnership.

Key Takeaways:
"Some people say, well, business is business, and personal is personal. But that's not the case. Because whatever you do in your personal life, bleeds over into your business life and vice versa." - Paul Copcutt
"I really do encourage you to think about your values because your values are the operating principles that form the base of your belief system. And you take your values with you wherever you go. It's like a moral compass." - Paul Copcutt
"To better understand your values, what I recommend is taking note of when something bothers you, the chances are that one of your values is being violated or compromised in some way." - Paul Copcutt
"The reason this has been your top five - what that is going to mean sometimes is that you do walk away from the best deal you might ever come across or from a business relationship or partnership. But you're going to be able to carry yourself forward in a much more ethical, positive, feel-good way than if you're compromising that value every day."- Paul Copcutt
