Terrigal

Mat Steinwede, the three time winner of the McGrath agent of the year award, has subsequently revealed that being number one in the network didn't mean much to him.
"For the first time, it's quite meaningless to me, and I don't quite know why" Steinwede said during his <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-rPZ-0fRpM" target="_blank">podcast</a>, adding that "in the beginning I liked to be number 1, but... when you get there, there's not much there."
He expressed that what drove him was the purpose of doing a great job, and being number one became a side effect. It was in a podcast with Geoff Jowett the high performance mindset coach.
"It's sort of like what's going to drive me now," Steinwede said.
The father of six said that it was important to remain grounded and that his family, friends and leisure time were just as important to be balanced and effective.
During the podcast Mat agreed, you've gotta strive coming from love, not fear and that you have to be grateful for every opportunity. 
He emotionally expressed his gratitude during the 2017 McGrath Award presentation when he was announced as the agency's top performer.
"25 years ago I sent a video tape to John McGrath asking if he would meet with me" and that two weeks later when McGrath called me back.
"That meeting changed my life," he said in 2017.

Steinwede describes his goals and challenges when he began with a passion.
"I remember when I first joined Mcgrath, I saw the top ten agents on a slide, and I got a copy of that slide and put myself as number one in my vision book. Not for any reason, I just wanted to achieve that." 
He says he faced innumerable hardships "bumps" on his road to becoming number one but his "goal was bigger than the challenges."
Despite being based in Terrigal on the NSW Central Coast, he has remarkably consistently outperformed agents across the McGrath Network, including the pricier Sydney eastern suburbs and lower north shore.
"Its not an easy thing to do, especially in a place like Terrigal.
"It's like being in a country town basket ball team and beating Michael Jordan in a way," he added jovially.
As a follower of Esther Hicks, he is a big proponent of '<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jaNCrB2rMH8" target="_blank">The Law of Attraction</a>'.
"If you can continually make sure you are on the upscale, passionate happy etc, your life has to go on the upside."
"You are the one in control of what comes to you, the world matches what you put out."
"You have the absolute ability to put out the right energy and have it come back to you," he firmly stated.
John McGrath himself speaks highly of Mat, "He's the real deal."

Savills sells Terrigal restaurant and apartment for $3.35 million

Parramatta Eels legend Peter &#39;Sterlo&#39; Sterling and his wife Selina appear set to downsize to Terrigal having sold their longtime Central Coast acreage.

They are tipped as buying a two level $1 million townhouse overlooking bushland in a gated community of 59 townhouses with extensive use of stone and timber along with a resort style pool with BQQ amenities.

It is three bedrooms and two bathrooms.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=9187 project_image_fid=164850]

Sterling, who has had ongoing NRL commentary commitments with Channel 9, has been at the home on the Central Coast since the mid-1990s.

It was in 1997 when two lots totalling over three hectares were bought for $495,000.

There&#39;s been no price disclosure, but buyers were being asked for offers between $3 million and $3.3 million.

Surrounded by tropical gardens, the home has four bedrooms, a media room and an office space.

A verandah wraps around the home, while the master suite, complete with walk-in wardrobe and ensuite, has its own private decking.

An infinity pool, entertainment area with built-in barbecue and outdoor kitchen, as well as a number of horse paddocks, sit in the grounds.&nbsp;

Sterling was introduced to the Central Coast by good mate Paul Taylor, having played together in Parramatta&#39;s first rugby league premiership side in 1981.

Taylor then played and coached for The Entrance in the twilight years of his league career before shifting to Queensland.&nbsp;

The couple first spent a year on a property in neighbouring Holgate, all the time looking for a special piece of the Central Coast they could call home.&nbsp;

&quot;Selina and I drove around all over the place,&quot; Sterling recalled in a 2002 profile which added that his dad and sister were at nearby Killarney Vale.

Sterlo owned for a few years in Collaroy until 1997 and before that had been at Castle Hill.

&quot;When we came into Matcham I said &#39;I&#39;d really like to live here one day.&quot;

Just 12 months later he was - on eight-and-a-half acres of private, rolling hillside with enough room for the horses and an environment perfect for raising children.

&quot;I look out there now and I see the value in what we&#39;ve done,&quot; he said long before it was worth its current $3 million plus.

&quot;Life doesn&#39;t get much better than this,&quot; he once said.

&quot;A lot of people think that I spend most of my time away from home with my television commitments and so on, but that&#39;s not true,&nbsp;I spend most of my time here.

He said he and Selina are real home bodies.

&quot;We&#39;re not real beach people, although we do get down to Wamberal a fair bit during summer.&quot;

Sterlo, one of the all-time great halfbacks, was a major influence in the Eels dominance in the 1980s.

He played 227 games for the Eels, winning four Premierships.

He represented The Blues in the State of Origin 13 times and was inducted into the ARL Hall of Fame in 2006.

Sterlo started his commentary career with Western Sydney radio station 2WS and Channel 10, before moving to the Nine Network.

He later went on to host The Sunday Footy Show, anchoring the program from the show&#39;s inception in 1993 until the end of the 2015 season when Yvonne Sampson took the reins.

He was co-host of Nine&#39;s The NRL Footy Show for 12 years alongside Paul Vautin and currently hosts&nbsp; Nine&#39;s Thursday Night Football&nbsp;and&nbsp;On the Couch with Sterlo.&nbsp;
