I'm Matt Terrio, CEO of Epic Real Estate by the way, and today I want to share with you the number one thing

that will impact your real estate investing more than anything else, more than anything else that you could do. This is Terio Media.

You know, I just know. This is Terrio Media.

You know, I just moved into my new office and I'm still getting settled trying to balance my

workload with unpacking and I get a little sidetracked here and there going

through boxes that I'm unpacking it and I'm coming across stuff that oh yeah I

remember that or where did I get this or where did this come from or oh yeah I meant to be looking at this or I always wanted to get back to this and I came across this book

1,001 things you need to know about life that little sub headline there,

is that you were not taught in school.

And so this book kind of stopped me in my tracks

because I did not recognize it.

I don't know when I got it or where I got it for that matter.

So I was like, let me see, let me just check.

It was a good title.

It peaked my interest.

Let me see what's number one in the book.

Because there's a thousand and one things.

So I'm just gonna go to number one.

I'm gonna go ahead and I'm to read it to you. Number one, think twice before you give your word. Come hell or high water, you must honor your commitments and keep your promises. You will be tempted to agree to participate in projects, attend events,

support causes, or interrelationships, simply to patronize someone or to get them out of your hair.

Once you have given your word, you should honor your promise,

regardless to how distasteful it may be
