"Stay away from real estate sales, Mike, just keep doing what you're doing." These were words Mike Allen's father spoke to him near the start of his corporate career. For years, Mike listened to his dad's advice and instead of following in his father's footsteps, he climbed the corporate ladder and at 33, he became the youngest director in his company's history. Life was good. But then one day, everything changed. While vacationing with his extended family in California, Mike's dad suddenly passed away-leaving Mike personally devastated and unsure of how to move forward. Without intervention, his dad's real estate business, which had taken years to develop, would fall apart. Living in Greenville, South Carolina, at the time, Mike made the tough decision to move across the country to Porterville, California, and step into a space he'd always heard about but never knew. Arriving soon before the 2008 financial crisis, Allen quickly discovered real estate wasn't for the faint of heart. But it was this struggle that forced him to grow. He realized that if he were to have any shot at success, he needed to reshape his thinking. This led him to develop the principles that form the foundation for this book, The Quantum Real Estate Agent. In this book, Allen shares ten quantum abilities that can serve as the blueprint for any real estate agent's success. These principles have formed the foundation for his life and are the reason he has had tremendous success as the president and co-owner of Quantum Realty Group, Inc. These include principles such as thinking beyond what most people consider attainable, becoming addicted to self-improvement, out-hustling the competition, preparing meticulously, and leading others the way you would want to be led. Ideal for aspiring and seasoned real estate professionals alike, The Quantum Real Estate Agent inspires readers to harness their past experiences and insights to build a successful and enriching career in real estate. Allen's motivational insights encourage readers to think big and act boldly, transforming both their professional careers and personal lives. This book serves as a roadmap to personal and professional transformation, urging readers to achieve greatness in the real estate industry through persistence, strategic planning, and a profound commitment to their core values.

If you're telling yourself this book isn't for you because you're locked into circumstances you can't change, because you didn't get your life off to a great start, because it's already too late, or because too many people are depending on you...I wrote this book for you.I wrote it for anyone who feels stuck-who wants to break out and try something different but who keeps not doing it. Maybe they think their circumstances are locking them in, maybe they're just scared, or maybe they think they could summon the courage and get into motion if they just knew where they wanted to go.I wrote it for people who want something more-people who already have quite a lot but still feel restless and people who've never had much but aren't willing to give up on the idea of having more. Finally, I wrote this book for women-not in an exclusionary, "No boys allowed" way, but because most of the books out there on the personal and career development shelves seem to assume a male reader. They make recommendations that any mother knows are out of reach...If you need to get kids to the school bus with their breakfasts eaten, backpacks packed, and at least most of their clothes on, matched, and right-side out, devoting the first three hours of your day to a morning routine of meditation, exercise, deep work, juicing, and day-planning might be fantastic. But so would a million dollars and a magic wand.
