Okay, so you need to do your ten a day, but did you ever have a day where you just got so wrapped up in others and in the community that you did more than 10!!!   More than your required contribution!!!   OMG, you are just contributing for the sheer joy of contributing!!!

 

Are you really an achiever!!! Do you always do more than it takes!!!  It is okay to be an achiever, just give yourself credit for being an achiever by commenting here and admitting that you sometimes get carried away in helping others, listening to a cause or really being into the flow of your spirit!!!! 

Real Estate Thinker Question

   What moves you about AR and contributing???   Why do you want to really help      others???  It is a Great Question what is your answer???  I have it that most of the  people here are really about contribution as being a leading need in who they are on this planet, that is a great thing, what drives you???  This is such a great expression of yourself into a large audience, what is it that drives you to be a part of this amazing AR community???

I have to say that I often post responses because what the person has written speaks to me - it's not necessarily to contribute or to help, but more because I can't NOT post!

I find myself spending much more time on AR than is probably normal.  But I get so much from this community of professionals; a laugh, a tip -- LOTS OF GREAT TIPS! -- a reminder, a heartwarming story, an update.  Where else am I going to go and get all of this in one place?  I enjoy reading blogs from new(er) agents, their enthusiasm is catching and it's good for this "old salt" to tap into that as often as possible.  And the blogs from folks like me, who have been there, done that and are here to tell the tale -- well, I enjoy the commiserating!  And of course, the Google juice is always welcome! So, that's it -- "the sheer joy of contributing" is giving me more than I'm giving it!

I do find myself commenting on more than 10 post on most days. I do get caught up in catching up on the post and love reading everyones thoughts for the day. That is part of the fun of playing in the Rain. You laugh, smile and learn something everyday!

I comment more than the "required 10".  Some days I am embarrassed to admit how many comments I leave :)

I have to agree Mary. I don't want to call myself an addict, but I think of 10 more like a "suggested minimum", lol!

I think I'm thoroughly addicted to this site.  I missed most of yesterday and feel very behind.  Missed you guys.  never thought I would say that.  lately, yes, I'm doing more than my daily 10 as I'm finding so many interesting posts.  Learning a lot so that's good.
