Clean up your act! I mean this literally and figuratively. When we are operating with many incomplete tasks, projects and goals, in clutter and chaos, we don’t have the focus, good execution or results. As a coach, I know that often, it isn’t about doing more, but doing things more effectively. In many cases, you can actually do less and be more successful because you have clarity and energy, but key to this is getting the things that don’t support you out of the way so you can be the best … (3 comments)
coach: Burned Out???
- 06/27/13 10:16 AM
As the real estate markets have heated up, most people I am talking to are busy, busy, busy. Lots of folks I talk to are tired. One of the foundations for being wildly productive is having the physical wherewithal to focus and be your best. Taking the time to take care of you can't be left to chance or something that happens after you've taken care of everyone else. Your own wellbeing has to be a priority. After all, you car won't take you far if you don't have gas in the gas tank! My question today is what are … (4 comments)
coach: Are You Going Through Change?
- 06/08/13 02:33 AM
Seems like we ALWAYS are, doesn't it? And, yet, I find most people have some fear and trepidation around change. I found this quote many years ago and have shared it often, because I find people can relate and resonate when thinking of it from this perspective. What I like best is that you have already let go of lots of trapezes and flown to the next...and it was always there for you!!! Happy Change! Fear of Transformation "Sometimes I feel that my life is a series of trapeze swings. I'm either hanging on to a trapeze bar swinging along or, for … (2 comments)
coach: Will Today be the Best Day of your Life?
- 06/06/13 04:34 AM
Did you know it could be, even if you don't have amazing plans for it right now? If you knew it was going to be...how would you be feeling? Would you have awakened today, excited with plans and expectations? Would you be looking for the evidence of today's perfection? Or, are you already thinking...no, it can't be today! Rather, it is some mythical day.... in the past or future? Maybe you are even thinking of reasons why today won't be that day? Thinking about the things lacking that would have today come up short! Discounting the possibility that this day could hold! … (1 comments)
coach: The Power of Visualization
- 05/31/13 05:48 AM
Knowing what you want... really having a clear picture of what you want is the first and most important step to getting what you want. We often think it is all the planning and actions and hard work, but I am learning to trust myself and the universe and let things unfold, instead of trying to force it. This is, of course, fairly difficult for a woman who has been a very successful control freak most of her life.... However, the more I learn and evolve, and the less I am attracted to hard work... I am learning the lessons of how to … (2 comments)
coach: What Do Sellers REALLY want???
- 08/31/10 02:56 AM
The availability of information online in the 21st century has radically changed many industries, including real estate. Travel agents and car dealers have found their businesses impacted dramatically as consumers tap into online information that gives them power and choices and makes proprietary information a thing of the past. In the real estate industry, the “one size fits all” model is quickly becoming antiquated. Consumers want choice. They want more control. They are more educated and feel more empowered and many do not fully understand the value of the real estate agent in their transaction. The good news is that our business … (3 comments)
coach: Concentrate Your Energy
- 11/06/07 10:50 PM
When you were a kid, did you ever use a magnifying glass to concentrate the Sun onto paper or leaves, and watch as it started a fire? It is amazing what concentrated energy can do! I was reminded of this in a conversation the other day with a woman who loves to contribute and volunteer with worthy organizations she cares about, but was feeling stretched! I also thought about my own situation with my granddaughter, Lily, who spends about 15-20 hours each week with us. I have chosen to cut back in several areas to enjoy & concentrate my energy with … (14 comments)
coach: What Are Your Top Priorities?
- 10/23/07 02:38 PM
Does life throw endless distractions your way that suck the life out of your days? Do you ever struggle to find time for those activities that would make the most difference in terms of joy or productivity?A few years ago, I learned a powerful time management distinction: to arrange my day around my top priority rather than trying to fit it in. While that may seem obvious and simple and it just doesn't happen for most of the people I meet. Successful people have not figured out a way to get more minutes in the day, but they use their minutes in a more effective way. Knowing … (3 comments)
