Chaos isn’t a workload problem—it’s a consistency problem.

Many real estate professionals find themselves stuck in a reactionary cycle—busy when business is flowing, scrambling when it slows down, and constantly feeling like they’re either catching up or falling behind.

In this episode of Life at Ten Tenths, Matt and Garrett break down why that cycle exists and how to step off it.

This conversation is about implementation and ownership.

Not doing more. Not chasing new tactics. Instead, let's build consistency through daily routines, intentional planning, and protecting the non-urgent actions that quietly create long-term results.

You’ll learn how to move from reacting to your business to leading it, why urgency often crowds out what actually matters, and how consistent execution creates stability in both your business and your life. Whether you’re coming off a strong end to the year or starting fresh, this episode will help you take control of the year ahead with clarity and intention.

Hustle can create momentum—but without a plan, it rarely creates sustainability.

As the year wraps up, many agents default to the same strategy: do more. More calls. More content. More effort. But “doing more” without clarity isn’t a plan—it’s a fast track to burnout and frustration.

In this episode of Life at Ten Tenths, Matt and Garrett break down what actually creates results in a real estate business that lasts. They explore why vague goals and generic plans fall apart, how structure can reduce pressure instead of adding it, and why clarity around actions, standards, and alignment is the real driver of growth.

You’ll hear practical examples, relatable analogies, and simple ways to regain momentum—even if you’re short on time or feeling behind. Whether you already have a plan or haven’t started yet, this conversation will help you refocus on what matters most and take meaningful action right now.

This episode is about building a business plan that works with your life, not against it—and creating results you can actually sustain.

Is your calendar working for you—or against you? In this episode of Life at Ten Tenths, Garrett and Matt dig into one of the biggest reasons people miss their goals: a broken calendar. If you've ever said "I know what I need to do, I just didn't get to it," this one's for you.

We get into:

- Why "it wasn't on my calendar" is actually good news

- The real reason you're not showing up for what you scheduled

Why do we create chaos we don’t need?

Why, when things are finally calm and working, do we shake the snow globe and send our world swirling again?

In this episode, Matt and Garrett break down the subtle ways we introduce unnecessary chaos into our businesses and lives—and how to finally stop the cycle. From switching brokerages, to revamping marketing plans, to adding new systems when the old ones aren’t even being used, this conversation shines a light on the real cost of constant change.

We get into the “20% drag” rule, the More–Better–New framework, and the deeper mindset patterns that push us toward reinvention instead of optimization. If you want more clarity, more momentum, and less self-induced turbulence heading into 2026, this episode is your reset moment.

In this episode:

• Why we shake the snow globe even when things are going well
• The hidden drag that comes with every “big change”
• More–Better–New: the framework that keeps you focused
• Why business planning season sparks unnecessary reinvention
• When a change is wise—and when it’s pure distraction
• How to realign your decisions with your mission, vision, and core values
• Why consistency is the most underrated growth strategy

If you’re ready to quiet the blizzard and build momentum with intention, this is the episode to start with.

🎧 Listen now. Keep the snow settled. Grow with clarity.
