Protect The Block

“If focus brings results, then long-term focus brings long-term results.” On day four of Consistency Week, James Shaw looks at how to protect your time block, with MREA pages 296 and 298. Page 296 says that if you set aside an hour for 10 calls, you finish all 10 even if the first nine were great. Page 298 explains why that’s hard: routine leads to boredom, boredom lets attention drift, and drifting attention craves something new. His favorite image is the magnifying glass. Hold it still and the leaf burns. Keep moving it around and you only get brown spots. He also shows a real “business at a glance” page from an Inspire member’s 60-minute business plan, where one number (three real conversations a day) is all it takes to hit a 28-home goal. Aired on October 29, 2026 The Pivot: SHIFT Ahead morning call is in an interview format, where agents across the globe share their expert input on various real estate topics. If you are stuck, we have the solution. This mastermind prepares any real estate agent to be several steps ahead of a market shift. James Shaw started this community during the pandemic. After 6 years, the Pivot: SHIFT Ahead is composed by 126.400 real estate agents. Through playbooks, masterminds and events, Shaw provides a growth and accountability space for those who need support.
