paris macivor: Motor Shooting Training - LAPD and Glendale PD - The 911 Team - 04/17/08 10:01 AM
I must say that my voice has seen better days.  However, the satisfaction that goes with the "stressing" of the voice and the decibel level that has to be achieved and maintained, when attempting to yell commands that have to overcome inner hearing protection and Motor Helmets, is quite draining and destructive.  I must say that I do love the fact I am a Reserve Police Officer and have no regrets in quitting from being a full time officer after 17 years, March 29, 2007.
Real Estate has its exciting points too.  It has its ups and downs - there are other agents … (0 comments)

paris macivor: Show me the badge. - 01/13/08 02:00 AM
Paris and I focus our efforts in providing Law Enforcement and Fire Department personnel with the absolute best that Real Estate has to offer.  Having said that, I am pondering the question, if those from these industries have different needs from the general public?
Oath Takers:  Law Enforcement and Fire Department men and women, are to keep their private life unsullied.  Free from criminal activity or association with anyone from that environment.  In fact to have a friend that has been convicted of a Felony crime, even though a long time ago, is something that can reap discipline and is not to … (1 comments)

paris macivor: Giving should be Black and White - 10/29/07 01:10 PM
This market is a bit tough, but not impossible.  Tis the Season to give.  Paris and I give now, as we did before.  If we find a worthy cause, our local Church.  We give when we are led to donate.
I cannot explain this, but we feel a need, even when times are tough, God has perfect guidance.  It does a heart good and it seems to also make us more productive.  That one I cannot explain either.
Having an Attitude for Giving, is always a positive and might just be what the Doctor ordered to push you up and over the Hump … (1 comments)

paris macivor: I don't mind sloppy seconds... - 09/06/07 12:59 AM
Being the first Realtor to have a crack at a listing is definitely an honor and should not ever be undervalued.
However, being the second or possibly third in line, where others have failed in the past, is even more meaningful to Paris and I.  Especially when your securing of the listing came as a result of no direct marketing of the "expired", "withdrawn" or "cancelled" listings. 
No, I am talking of the phone call from someone that you might have known from your past, or someone that was "reminded" of you being in the business but was not in your general … (6 comments)

paris macivor: Prospecting - A daily routine... - 09/02/07 02:58 AM
Yes it is Sunday.  But I had to get my prospecting done via mail.  The follow up calls can wait until Tuesday.   But this is very necessary for my feelings of well-being, not to mention to keep Paris911 fresh in the consumers mind.
It is very interesting, if I go a day without working out - meditation - prospecting, I feel like super-crap.  Not just crap but Super-crap.  The time to make our futures is now.  I found that in the past when I waited for business, it came once in a while.  But now that I hunt the business, it flows … (9 comments)

paris macivor: How about 100's? - 08/09/07 11:21 PM
Ah yes, the workout.  There are a lot of advisers out there that express their opinions about the correct amounts of sets vs. reps vs. weight. vs. machines, dumb-bells, bars, body-weight, whew.  It can be overwhelming.
Grab a couple of soup cans and do curls.  Stand in your kitchen and curl the soup cans.  After 100 repetitions your biceps will be close to exploding and you will be invigorated.  Now, when tomorrow comes, you will probably remove me from your associate lists.  But for the moment you will love me.
Some of the best fighters in the world utilize unusually shaped objects to … (11 comments)

paris macivor: How do you P.T.? - 08/03/07 03:29 AM
I am not asking about pitching tents, polishing thrones or pushing tortoises.  I am curious about your physical training regimen.
I have a very close friend, as I am sure many of you do(have close friends that is), getting deployed to the War in the middle east.  He is currently at Pendleton being briefed and training.  Upon returning he will join us and our quest in Real Estate with Paris911.  During our chit chat he was telling me about a typical day, the first thing he spoke about was P.T.  That brought back memories of the Police Academy and the morning air … (3 comments)

paris macivor: What are you traveling experiences? - 07/17/07 04:05 AM
I have successfully booked a reservation for the four members of our family to N.M. to visit my family, we are excited.  It has been a long time since we have been there, as I recall the last time I was there was when my Dad passed.
So seeing everything will probably be as it has been in the past, with the appearance of all things growing smaller.  It will be nice to see the family and observe how they have changed, not only in appearance but attitude.  It is the small quirks that make it really fun, especially when our children have … (1 comments)

paris macivor: Feeble Minds with no code... - 07/15/07 08:43 AM
It still astounds me to find people that are only looking for what is best, in a selfish manner, when it comes to anything others need help with.
If someone were to ask for help I would be there.  I would not look at what I can get back from that person or what is in it for me.  When you teach, one of the things that the Master Instructor, will tell you is to offer a "W.I.I.F.M", whats in it for me, to your audience before you start the meat of the presentation and layout the course guidelines.  However, I have … (0 comments)

paris macivor: Being married to my best friend. - 07/11/07 03:53 AM
March 1991, two weeks after graduating the LAPD Police Academy I went with my training officer into a Bakers Square Restaurant.  For that matter, I had no choice.  It was speak only if spoken to and the first and last words out of my filthy sewer will be "sir"..  (for some of you this will bring back memories).
Our server, Paris, was so wonderful that three months later we were married.  Everyone told us that it would not last and that we were making a huge mistake.  You see for the "advisers" in our world, both sides being in perfect alignment, it … (3 comments)

paris macivor: Who is covering your back??? - 07/01/07 05:50 AM
Lets talk safety in Real Estate.  Not the aspect of production and establishing a "net" for your financial future.  No, I want to speak about your safety.  I am not speaking about lawsuits or the sort, most of those can be averted by the simple rule of thumb, "Disclose, Disclose, Disclose".
How many times have you had someone call as a buyer wanting to see one of your listings in the next 10 minutes?  I say "pose" because that might be what is really happening.  This phone call could be conducted by a predator.  We do have our pictures all over God's green … (6 comments)

paris macivor: Part V - Sight Picture - 05/01/07 03:29 AM
Mechanically, the shooter must be made aware of how the pointing of the sights on the weapon function.  You will be cutting in half the center of mass of whatever you are shooting.  If you are unsure of your target or other related dangers that come about as a result of discharging, then we are to be held to a higher standard, and should refrain from engagement.
I know that I have a picture in my mind of my perfect business model.  The way I present listing information to a prospective seller.  Not to mention the way that I speak with first time buyers.  I … (0 comments)
