dialog: BLOGGING IS LIKE HAVING A CONVERSATION - 05/24/12 07:42 AM
We put to much emphasis into the blogging etiquette using fear or inexperience to guide us. If you can talk, then you can blog. I will never forget the public speaking tip I received one day and have drawn from immensely until I didn't need it anymore. Always imagine or actually address yourself to someone in your audience that reminds you of someone you like and feel comfortable about
HERE REX...HERE BOY
If it is your dog or cat or even horse, then get on with in but do up the intelligence factor. Seriously, for me it would be a good … (6 comments)

I get calls from people who are not used to renting or shopping for a place. Either they are just starting out or they hadn't been out there in quite a while. Here are a few pointers that heighten the awareness and help form a second skin before you need it

If you take a bunch of energy, focus it and then release it with a purpose in one direction, you have the laser beam principal at work. It is this principal that I want to discuss and not the technology. People who receive specialized training in anything get to practice this when they unleash that training in application and operation
