Key Takeaways:

“Technology helps me mostly from an organizational and a communication standpoint. For the most part allows me to time block myself, and the first thing I do, and you know, being with Keller Williams and being a student of Gary Keller is he teaches us that the first thing you gotta do is time block your time off. Because you can't live to work, you have to work to be able to live and I want to spend my time the way I want to do it.” - Steve Padernacht

“I'm able to do my business based on my Google Calendar and the technology that I have. Communications wise, social media -- it's amazing that I can literally manage three or four different social media accounts, and communicate my message from all of these different businesses literally from the palm of my hand.” - Steve Padernacht

“One of the things I've done is, I've kind of branded myself as your favorite realtor. What I do is I focus on my sphere of influence, or my SOI.” - Steve Padernacht

“I think that what I do, primarily, and I don't directly advertise my real estate investments at the bar or in the music industry, but what I do is I just build relationships with people and just have conversations.” - Steve Padernacht

“If you're constantly coming from a sense of service, then nobody ever thinks that you have an agenda behind you. And they'll always be willing to help you in return.” - Steve Padernacht

“Anything that you're trying to do in real estate, I think the key is to educate yourself. I think you constantly have to be reading, you constantly have to be listening to other people. And learning what other people have done. Success leaves clues, like you just have to go back and look and see what worked for them, and kind of copy it to a degree and then add your own flair to it.” - Steve Padernacht

“My uncle tells me to win the day, he says, identify three or four different things or identify one thing that you can do that you'll look at the end of the day, and say I won today. If you can win the day, and you look back over the course of a month, and you have more wins than losses, you had a good month. You multiply that by the course of a year, you multiply that course in five years, 10 years. And then you look back at your life, and you say, “You know what, I won more days than I lost, I live a good life.” - Steve Padernacht

“My favorite quote, it's got to come from my father. And he said, “You could only do so much with your hands but, with your brain, you could do anything.” - Steve Padernacht
