Have a problem-solving mindset

[Easton Hill]

Last night I was talking with a friend about how to work with partners, clients, contractors, friends, etc.

The best way to get what you want in life, business, and real estate is to ask yourself:

"How can I solve a problem for the other party in an ethical, sustainable, and profitable way"

If you can answer this question with extreme clarity you'll find that doors open to you, partners appear, and negotiations become about details rather than about the project itself

If you can't you'll find that you do a lot of "one-time" transactions, burn a lot of bridges, and encounter resistance left and right!
