When things go wrong in property—deals fall through, builders mess up, investors pull out—it’s easy to point fingers. But what if the real game-changer isn’t what’s happening to you… but how you’re responding to it?
In the world of property, mindset matters. In fact, it might just matter more than any strategy, spreadsheet, or sourcing tip.
The Two Mindsets: Victim vs. Victor
You’ve likely seen both in action.
👎 The victim mindset blames the market, the letting agent, the builder, the economy… basically, everything and everyone else. They’re loud about what’s going wrong and tend to feel stuck.
👍 The victor mindset, on the other hand, takes quiet ownership—even when it isn’t their fault. They look for solutions, adapt fast, and build resilience with every obstacle.
This doesn’t mean you’re one or the other forever. We all slip into both at times. The key is catching yourself—and shifting gears.
So, how do you make the shift?
Here are a few things to reflect on:
- Are you blaming or learning?
- Do you focus more on what went wrong or what you can do next?
- Are you surrounded by problem-solvers or complainers?
- Are you tracking your wins and your lessons?
These questions alone can start to rewire how you see challenges—and how quickly you bounce back from them.
Why It Matters
Property is full of ups and downs. That’s the reality. But your mindset will determine whether those downs define you or develop you.
When you shift from “Why is this happening to me?” to “What can I learn from this and how can I grow?”, your results start to change. Your confidence builds. Your business grows. And you stop waiting for permission or luck.
Feeling stuck in your property journey?
This mindset shift could be the breakthrough you’ve been waiting for.
