• “ The best advice I have ever received is to always move forward . Sometimes opportunities disguise themselves as chores , or jobs or problems . Nothing arrives on a silver platter ; I have always created the opportunities in my life from problems .”
• To become a successful agent , Emily did literally everything that her training and mentors taught her to do . “ It made me realise that property managers are actually highly skilled selling agents too ; the skills are so transferable .”
