MPF Discussion with Hans Struzyna
Bouncing Back from Disappointment With former Olympian Hans Struzyna
About Hans
In my 30 years on this planet, I ‘ve learned a few lessons that I apply to everything I do. The first is that all goals must be written down and visible on a daily basis. The second is that there’s no such thing as overnight success and consistent work is the only path to success. Finally, everything is the way it is because someone made it that way. So, to understand people is to understand the world.
I ‘ve applied these lessons to my 12-year rowing career culminating as a member of the 2016 USA Olympic rowing team. After the Games, I had to descend from the metaphorical mountain I ‘d spent years scaling and ended up feeling lost for the first few months. Searching for my next climb, I found real estate. I got my license six months later and have been pursuing all avenues of this business ever since. I‘m a Realtor Partner with a Wall Street Journal Top 100 nationally ranked team, The Gunderman Group. We focus on advocacy, risk management and exceeding our client’s personal definitions of success. By staying true to those core values, we’re the top team in the East Bay of the Bay Area and sell over $180M per year (with over $1.5B sold in total) with an average price point of $1.2M. I’m also fascinated by real estate investing and completed my first flip during my first year in the business. My wife and I also invest in out-of-state multi-family properties. I’m actively looking for my next few deals.
On this episode of My Perfect Failure (Bouncing Back from Disappointment) Hans provides insights into the true sacrifice, struggle, and effort it takes to become an Olympian. We get a first-hand glimpse behind the scenes Hans describes achieving an incredible 4th place in the Olympic Men’s rowing 8’s final but feeling disappointed at not medalling being one of the fancied teams. After recovering from his disappointment Hans applied the same dedication, application, and team ethic to become one of the top performers in real estate in the East Bay area with sales in excess of $19.2 million, placing Hans in the top 2% in his area.
