master certified coach: 2011 December Blogging Challenge:Make This December The BEST Month of Your Life!!! - 12/03/11 04:02 PM
I have started December by PLANNING What I want in 2012! I've shared with you often that I believe visualization is the first step to getting what you want. The most successful people indicate they spend a little time (and 5 or 10 minutes IS enough!) each day visualizing their perfect outcomes. When you do this, you are programming your subconscious mind to look for the synchronicities and opportunities to take you closer to your vision. For me, it's worked in many little ways...just visualizing before a speech or class that people were happy and got value or visualizing my day as wonderful

master certified coach: How To Get The Most Out of The NAR Convention 2011 - 11/08/11 08:20 PM
The Fun and Excitement are about to begin in Anaheim as 20,000 real estate professionals converge for the annual convention! This will be a week for me to see friends, old and new! It'll be time to network, learn, laugh and look at all the new tech stuff at the meetings and the EXPO. I have attended every Convention since 1988 and it is one of the highlights of my year. I find it helps me understanding the BIG picture and get a chance to hear from people what IS working. Here are a some tips that have helped me and

master certified coach: I Need A Volunteer! - 11/01/11 10:55 PM
When did we stop volunteering? I saw an extraordinary interlude last week when I visited St Paul’s School for Girls for high school reunion. One of the wonderful activities they planned for our Class of ‘66 was to pair each of us with someone from the 5th grade. The 5th graders wrote us a letter a couple of weeks before the Alumnae Weekend and then we met with them briefly on our school visit. What fun to compare notes! Each 5th grader has their own email address through the school and I am continuing to correspond with my buddy, Emmy Shields,

master certified coach: Time Traveling! - 10/19/11 07:04 PM
Going Back in Time! Last week, I went to my 45th High School Reunion at St. Paul’s School for Girls in Baltimore. I realize now that I was clearly privileged to get the opportunity to attend this school where their mission is: St. Paul's School for Girls educates the minds and hearts of girls in a supportive and intellectually challenging community that encourages respect, integrity, creativity, and spiritual growth, preparing them as independent and confident young women to embrace the extraordinary opportunities of our complex world. What a cool example of a great Mission Statement (HINT, HINT for those of you working on your

master certified coach: Taking Care of Each Other! - 10/10/10 05:28 PM
“Never doubt that a small group of committed people can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.” -Margaret Mead Think about this.... "Coma…a medically induced coma… Pat was in a coma… Put yourself in Pat’s Place… You are Pat. You fall. You are paralyzed, lying on the floor all night until being found by your neighbor’s son who has come to walk your Labrador Retriever. At the hospital, a coma is medically induced. The coma continues for over a month. It is impossible for you to do anything… make decisions, conduct business, pay bills and

master certified coach: The 4 Hour Workweek - 08/05/08 07:47 AM
I 've been attending the National Speaker's Association(NSA) this week in New York City. I haven't read the book yet, but got a chance to attend a live session with author and blogger, Tim Ferris. Wow! It was a packed session and I took lots of notes that I will share in the next few days. One of the tips that fits well with my Summer vacation. Tim suggests we stop doing things that we aren't sure about the difference they make for 2 weeks and then assess if you want to add it back in. This is exactly my idea

master certified coach: My Two Best Take aways from Inman Connect 2008 - 07/28/08 08:22 AM
During the Blogger Connect, Linda Davis said,"If your business is crappy (referring to how you serviced your clients), blogging won't help!" What a profound statement!!!! During the Savvy Agent Technology breakout, Konstantin Guericke, CEO of jaxtr, Inc. shared his brilliant system of creating passwords that can be remembered: Combine these 3 times to make an 8 character password: the last 2-3 (pick one for consistency) letters of the URL prompting you to create the password some number (use the same for everything) some other word or letters you'll remember Wow! I can do that. I'm going to go

master certified coach: Summer Vacation Reading - 07/16/08 08:36 AM
One of my summer vacation goals is to read. I have a pile of books that have come highly recommended or that I have been meaning to get around to. I don't know about you, but I still love to read and had not been making the time to do it. Or leaving it to before bed when I could read about 5-10 pages and then got too sleepy to read more. While in Florida a couple of weeks ago, I read a couple novels. It is almost like going on vacation to be entirely sucked into a story and time

master certified coach: How Selfish Are You? - 07/14/08 09:16 PM
In my keynotes and seminars, I often relate the story of the airplane announcement about putting on your oxygen mask first, in the event of decompression, before helping the child (or person acting like a child screaming beside you). I ask "why" and, of course, the audience knows....you can't help anyone if you don't have oxygen going to your brain!There are, it seems, many agents working today without oxygen going to their brains......Have you met them? Today, I went to my first Yoga class in a few years. I am on summer vacation. I have made a committment to take care

master certified coach: Takin' It Easy! - 07/04/08 06:59 AM
As the Eagles say..... "Standing on the corner in Winslow Arizona, such a fine sight to see." We spent 3 days in Winslow at The La Posada Hotel in the Harry Truman Room. The La Posada is an absolute gem. Built in 1930 as part of the Fred Harvey railroad hotels, it has been lovingly restored by Allan Affeldt. The Turquoise Room Restuarant was deemed one of the 10 best restuarants in the state by Arizona Highways magazine in May 2008. It's on the old Route 66 and is a not to be missed stop across northern Arizona. There's not a lot

"All conditions and all circumstances in our lives are the result of a certain level of thinking. When you want to change the conditions and the circumstances, we have to change the level of thinking that is responsible for it." Albert Einstein Your thought is the most powerful tool you have for your success. That is good news.

master certified coach: What the heck is Twitter????? - 03/26/08 02:04 PM
Twitter is a micro-blogging platform that limits posts to 140 characters, but allows for replies and direct messages. Each post is an answer to the question "What are you doing?" I don't know about you, but reading that definition leaves me asking, "So what?" It sounds almost like the stupidest idea ever. But actually using it, diving into it, working with it makes you realize that no explanation could really describe what it's like to use Twitter. Doesn't even come close! Just like blogging, once you participate, you get bitten by the bug! In an article in FAST COMPANY, Robert Scoble says "Twitter

master certified coach: Are You Having A Bad Day? How Bad is it? - 03/04/08 09:28 AM
The real estate business may not be easy or the way you want it to be, but, as my husband said the other day, "At least they aren't shooting at us!" I came across a link to a video of Carnegie Mellon professor, Randy Pausch on my Arizona Real Estate Educator's listserv. Not the place I would have expected to find this kind of inspiration, but I thought you'd find value too. Randy was given 6 months to live. This is his "Last Lecture" to his students at Carnegie Mellon. I checked him out further and found his home page here Perhaps, thinking about your bad day
