KW Vision Speech 2025
Rush Out to Meet the Giants
Gabriel Perez took the stage to deliver his Vision Speech for 2025, setting the tone for a year of passion, perseverance, and unwavering commitment at Keller Williams Realty Pasadena. In his uniquely inspiring and heartfelt way, Gabriel spoke not just about goals and strategies but about the deep, personal grit required to face challenges head-on and emerge stronger.
The Underdog Spirit
Drawing from the timeless story of David and Goliath, Gabriel painted a vivid picture of how an underdogβarmed with preparation, faith, and courageβcan overcome seemingly insurmountable odds. He reminded us that grit is not born in moments of ease but forged in the fires of adversity. David, overlooked and underestimated, rushed out to meet his challenge, carrying with him not just a sling but years of unseen preparation and a steadfast belief in his purpose.
This imagery resonates deeply with us as agents. Like David, we often face our own Goliaths: market shifts, tough clients, missed listings, or even self-doubt. But Gabrielβs message was clearβour Goliaths are not roadblocks; they are opportunities to grow stronger, smarter, and more resilient.
The Power of GRIT
In 2025, Gabriel challenged us to embrace grit, a concept popularized by psychologist Angela Duckworth, as our guiding principle. Grit combines intense passion with unyielding persistenceβa refusal to quit, no matter how difficult the path becomes. Itβs not just about working hard; itβs about staying ready, showing up with integrity, and moving forward even when no one is watching or applauding.
Gabrielβs words struck a chord:
βMay you see those opportunities of grit, and may you rush out to meet them. Donβt just lean into these challengesβrun toward them with the courage to grow and the determination to succeed.β

Applying KW Grit to Our Lives
As real estate agents, our work is built on persistence. Every client meeting, every open house, and every call we make is a chance to sharpen our skills, deepen our relationships, and build something extraordinary. But as Gabriel reminded us, itβs in the low momentsβwhen deals fall through, leads dry up, or we feel overlookedβthat our true grit is forged. These moments teach us to stay ready, to prepare tirelessly, and to never lose sight of our greater purpose.
Letβs make 2025 a year of growth, passion, and perseverance.
As we charge into 2025, letβs commit to embracing the KW Grit that Gabriel so passionately spoke about. Letβs approach every challenge as David did, with courage, and unwavering determination. Whether youβre a seasoned agent or just starting your journey, know that your Goliaths are shaping you into a stronger, more capable version of yourself.
Raise your glass to meeting challenges head-on, to staying ready, and to rushing out to meet the giants in your path. And remember Gabrielβs blessing:
βMay you see those opportunities of grit, and may you rush out to meet them.β
