Okay, so yes, it has been a long time yet again since I tried to do some writing in my blog. I would like to say I have so many legitiamate excuses, maybe some actually are, but I don't. I'm lazy. I admit it. I enjoy the Wii too much. I enjoy movies, music, food, too much. And there in lies the problem.

Too much stuff, not enough results.

Where is all of this coming from? I took a look back at 08, and realized that my year was less than I had hoped.  Yes, the economy is shot, the world is falling apart, my retirement fund is empty, but those things are out of my control. I can control my expenses, my time, my abilites. So, these thoughts in mind, I have a plan.

Actually, that is my first step. A new business plan. I have been part time, full time at half speed for too long. So starting now, I will change. The opportunity to be successful this year is in my hands. Forget the economy, people still need new homes. People still change jobs. First time home buyers are getting great deals.

Yes, my rambling blog is finally convincing me that now is the time.

I start with a new business plan. One conceived by myself looking from the outside in. I will pretend that I am just starting out in the business, and go from there. Then a new website. Then a million new clients!!!!!!!!!!!

Lofty goals, but goals nontheless.

So bear with me kiddos, as I try not to get lost in the cracks this year, as I try to be successful, as I try to overcome the media hype, as I try to outlast the long term vets who have been here before. Bear with me my friends, and maybe we can all learn a little something new together.

Training oh training how I love your shiny teachings

I have just finished some great classes with one of our trainers, and I can not believe how much information and technology is truly out there. I also can't believe how so many agents become so afraid of change that they end up not utilizing the…
Will the real Batman please stand up?
Chris Cox (Coldwell Banker United, Realtors)
I think that he just did. This weekend a couple of new records were set at the box office by this little movie called The Dark Knight. Was it all that the media cracked it up to be? Yes, and then some. Being some what of a purist, I had my doubts…

The little closing that could.....
Chris Cox (Coldwell Banker United, Realtors)
Well, it has been several days since my last post, and I will admit that the withdrawals have been horrrrribbbbbleeee. However, I have legitimate reason why I have not been spilling the knowledge from forth my mind. It is called a closing. Yes,…
why, oh why must lending me so messy?
Chris Cox (Coldwell Banker United, Realtors)
So, there I was feeling sick waiting for a close that I hoped would close. I say hope, because two days before the closing date I was still sending needed documents. Oh, I warned them. I warned them all. No way we can close that quickly. When do you…

Yes, it's true. I can not deny it. I too like to blog. Okay, that was weak. I lovvveee to blog. Oh, and learn too. Isn't that what this place is all about? If you stop learning, if you stop trying new technology, if you fight the ever changing world…
