Something to Think About, Today! - 08:32 AM
With every day that passes, we are rushing around to get things done.  So little time, in a day.  Yet, when you loose someone you love, that you thought would be here, forever, you do realize that time is so much more precious than you could have ever imagined.  Keep on making those good memories and have an impact on those around you.  Love with all your heart.  Don't put off your happiness.  Do not wait to enjoy life.  This poem will enlighten you and change your thinking on your life. One of the Irish proverbs that is our favorite is, … (5 comments)

The Seminar Was So Worth the Trip! - 05:23 PM
On the morning of this seminar, last Thursday, I overslept.  Quickly, I jumped into the shower, made myself a cup of coffee to go and jumped into my car and got going.  It was 7:20am.  I had planned to leave for the event, at 6:30am. The trip is mostly highway, so, I wasn't concerned too much about the time. The event was held in Stamford, Ct.
I have driven to New Haven, Ct, many times in the last few years, so, I was familiar with that route.  New Haven is about halfway for me, to travel to Stamford, Ct. I was amazed at … (9 comments)

Aspiring Real Estate Agents - NO! You Do NOT Need a Website (yet)! - 09:30 AM
I recently released two newsletter mini-clinics especially for aspiring real estate agents - that is - real estate agent wannabe's who are not yet licensed, but hope to be someday. The first is called "So You Wanna Be a Real Estate Agent" and was created to help people decide if real estate is a good career for them, and the second - "So, You're ALMOST a Real Estate Agent" is about helping pre-licensees (those currently in real estate school) figure out what they can be doing NOW to prepare for that happy day they hang their bright shiny new real estate … (17 comments)

Grandpa's Perspective on Failure... - 11:59 PM
My friend Mike suggested I re-blog this great saying and I could not agree more with old Gramps on this one. It does always seem that our darkest time is just a test before our greatest achievements.
 
Love and light,

Cedar City Localism Post...Livestrong Day..... - 12:05 PM
I know that Cedar City is probably not unique in observing Livestrong Day, to help focus our efforts in the fight against cancer.  This is something that I am sure has touched everyone's life in one way or another.  The idea behind Livestrong of course is attributed to Lance Armstrong, who is a cancer survivor.  There is a request that people wear yellow today.
