It's that Time of Year

It's time to put a smile on your face and Greet the World with that extra Step!  It's all about enjoying the moment and the things in life you can control.  First lets look at a list of 5 things we can't controll.

  1. The Weather.  So don't worry about or let it affect you mood.
  2. What others are saying about the Real Estate Business.  Just simple show your clients the facts.
  3. The Stock Market!!  Say why worry.
  4. Interest Rates.  They are what they are it only changes what you buyer can afford not that they can't purchase a home.
  5. The War!  It's out of our control lets leave to the folks we elect to make that decision.

Now lets take a look at 5 things we can control.

  1. Our attitude.  Know one else can control that but US!!  So make it a good one.  Remember it's the challenges in our business that creates our Job!
  2. Our Friends.  The people we chose to surround our self with will affect how we look at life and our Business.
  3. The People we work with everyday.  Make sure you are with Real Estate Company that has a good reputation and provides you and your clients with the tools needed to be successful!
  4. Our Reputation.  We control that by the things we do everyday.  Make sure its about the client and not about the money and everything else will fall in place!
  5. Be a Realtor.  If you are a real estate agent and not a part of the Realtor Family.  Change that and become a Real Estate Profession by becoming a Realtor!! 

Take a Moment and But a Smile on your Face and do the Best you can by being honest and hard working for everything you are a part.

Another thing that we can change is other people's perception of our market. My old manager always said "what you look for, you will find" That is true. (He said this to another Realtor who was always trying to "catch" me doing something wrong, She is still looking)
