Here are some of her top nuggets offinancial wisdom to keep in mind for the rest of this year.
Be Yourself
Corcoran encourages everyone to stay true to their authentic character in business and real life.
Show up as your true self!
In the early stages of your career, the right boss can set you up for a lucrative career.
The wrong boss might clip your wings before you have the chance to take off.
When looking for a job, dont underestimate the value of aworthwhile boss.
Dont Undervalue Yourself
When you are starting out, its tempting to undervalue your abilities.
But Corcoran disagrees with that strategy.
If you think youre worth a dime, thats all youll get!
Recognize your worth youre a diamond, not a pebble!, she wrote recently on LinkedIn.
Find that sweet spot!
Corcoran shared a story on theBobby Bones Showabout losing two friends over a business deal.
Even the successful real estate mogul has lost friends over investment dealings.
Get Into Real Estate Early
Corcoran made the bulk of her fortune inreal estate investing.
Not surprisingly, shes suggested that anyone looking to build wealth should get into real estate.
The real estate tycoon recommends investing in real estate as soon as possible.
But thebusiness of building a companyisnt for the faint of heart.
It requires mastering many different skills, including delegation of important tasks.
Corcoran wrote in a recent post, Delegating well is a tough skill to master.
Because every good boss is a control freak!
And thats why delegating is so difficult.
It requires letting go of control.
Corcoran continued, My tried and true rule is that 80% is good enough.
Perfectionism is the enemy of delegation, and good enough is better than perfect.
Imposter syndrome gets a bad rap.
I seek out entrepreneurs who are insecure because I know Ive got myself a winner.
They have the ambition, and theyre going to work twice as hard.
Its one of the great upsides to feeling like youre an imposter.
But Corcoran advises jumping on the ideas that excite you.
When you have an idea, move on it immediately.
And let me tell you something those nasty failures?
Your best successes will follow soon after.
