Gemma Russell On Persistence and Overcoming Adversity In Property

Nick Claydon interviews Gemma Russell, a successful property investor and therapist. Gemma shares her journey in the property industry, from starting with Property Wealth System to flipping houses and running service accommodation. She discusses the challenges she has faced, including dealing with difficult guests and overcoming rejection.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Staying consistent with daily actions and tasks is crucial for success in property investing. Even when faced with rejection or setbacks, it's important to keep going and maintain a consistent effort. Property investing often involves facing challenges and obstacles, such as rejection and objections. Developing resilience and the ability to overcome these obstacles is essential for long-term success. The property market is constantly changing, and being able to adapt and pivot is important. Whether it's changing investment strategies or adjusting to market conditions, being flexible and adaptable is crucial. Staying motivated and positive in the face of challenges requires keeping the big picture in mind. Whether it's financial goals, providing for family, or leaving a legacy, having a clear vision of what you're working towards can help maintain motivation. BEST MOMENTS "Nobody wants to feel that nobody wants to have that nobody's motivated to go like that. I cannot wait to go out today and get five nos. I can't wait to go out today and get all my offers rejected. I'm so excited for it. Nobody ever feels like that."  "I think the ability to stay consistent… that consistency, even if it's just 30 minutes a day, that you're doing the same thing over and over again, eventually it will work." "It's what I try and teach, you know, all students that the country assistant I work with is, it's focus on the actions, and the results will take care of themselves." -  "So that consistency of keeping that action up is so vital, because now he's, you know, a year down the line. And he's in the position where he's sourcing properties left bank centre, because he did so much work."
