The 8 Compass Principles in Review

 
At Compass, they established 8 principles of entrepreneurship to guide agents in achieving their missions and exceeding their visions. 
After attending the 2018 Compass REtreat, and hearing Compass CEO Robert Reffkin review these principles, I was overwhelmed by their importance both as an agent and as a human being.
We all struggle in life to find our true selves. 
Life doesn’t come with a handbook, but sometimes we need some form of guidance, structure, and motivation along the way in order to keep moving forward. 
That is the very reason that Reffkin and his Compass team created these principles: to guide agents with a sense of purpose and direction toward each of our unique goals.
From the outside looking in, agents often think that in order to be a Compass agent, they first must have mastered these principles and practice them in their daily lives before joining the team. 
As I have gone through each principle in relation to my own experiences it became clear to me, and I hope to others, that partnering with Compass doesn’t mean you must have already succeeded in life or in your real estate business.
In fact, it is quite the opposite. 
Before Compass hires anyone, they ask three other Compass agents if that potential new hire is collaborative and has no ego. 
If they don't get three out of three thumbs up to those questions, they don't hire that person regardless of how much they sell. 
Compass is looking for potential; for entrepreneurs that want to be wholeheartedly part of a bigger team and grow. 
These 8 Compass principles are not in place to attract perfect agents who have fully succeeded in life and in business. 
They are in place to attract agents that want to be the best. And to be the best, agents must be willing to become better people.
These are principles that light that path:
Compass principle 1: Dream Big
Compass principle 2: Move Fast
Compass principle 3: Learn from Reality
Compass principle 4: Be Solutions-Driven
Compass principle 5: Obsess About Opportunity
Compass principle 6: Collaborate Without Ego
Compass principle 7: Maximize your Strengths
Compass principle 8: Bounce Back with Passion
If these principles get your heart racing a little faster and resonate with your soul-driven goals and dreams, then Compass is the place for you. 
I did not come to the table knowing everything these principles were designed to teach. 
In fact, I had failed to some degree within each of these areas. 
But I wanted to be more and to learn more. 
I wanted to be somebody who learned from their experiences with the goal of becoming a better version of myself. 
And the best way I knew how to share these principles and give them life was to talk about how they directly related to my experiences in hopes to attract, inspire and connect with like-minded entrepreneurs.

🎙️ Why Pinecrest Is Quietly Dominating Florida's Luxury Market

Let’s get one thing straight—when most people think about South Florida luxury real estate, their minds instantly wander to ocean views, glassy high-rises, and homes with elevators for your car (yes, that’s a thing). But what if we told you that one of the most expensive housing markets in the entire state isn’t on the sand—it’s nestled under a canopy of banyan trees, away from the chaos, and surrounded by some of the best schools in the country? Welcome to Pinecrest, folks.
In this episode of the ALL IN Miami podcast, we’re pulling back the curtain on one of Florida’s best-kept luxury secrets. Pinecrest has officially landed among Florida's Top 25 most expensive housing markets, and no, it didn’t get there by accident or with a viral TikTok dance. We're diving deep into why this peaceful, residential paradise—known for its estate-sized lots, ultra-private homes, and a vibe that whispers old-money elegance—is turning heads and racking up jaw-dropping price tags.
We’ll explore why wealthy families, celebrities, and even international buyers are flocking to Pinecrest instead of more “Instagram-famous” neighborhoods. Hint: it’s not just because they want to avoid valet parking at Whole Foods (although, that helps). From world-class public and private schools, to backyard space you could land a helicopter on (okay, maybe not literally, but close), Pinecrest offers a level of luxury that doesn’t feel like it’s trying too hard.
You’ll also hear about what’s really driving these record-breaking home prices, how Pinecrest compares to other high-end Miami neighborhoods like Coral Gables or Coconut Grove, and why agents who overlook Pinecrest might be missing out on their biggest sales yet.
If you're a buyer who wants peace, prestige, and privacy—or a seller wondering how to position your Pinecrest property like a diamond in a field of quartz—this episode is packed with insights, market stats, local secrets, and more than a few chuckles.
So grab your overpriced cold brew (or your cafecito—we don’t judge), and press play. Whether you're local, moving to Miami, or just addicted to Zillow at 2am, this one's going to open your eyes to the leafy luxury of Pinecrest.

Tucked into a five-acre master-planned oasis, Midtown Park anchors a thriving creative community framed by palm trees, paseos, and pop-up markets peppered around Midtown Miami, a neighborhood in motion.
Connected to Wynwood’s art scene, the Design District’s flair, and Edgewater’s edge, living in Midtown means morning walks to cafés, spontaneous gallery crawls, and sunsets from a rooftop lounge with skyline views.
