Peter and Linda Pfann have taken a positive approach to counteract the lagging economy and difficult housing market by encouraging agents to focus on efforts at recovery.  This may not turn the market around, but is likely to give us encouragement and renewed energy as we deliberately focus on the positive side of what's happening in real estate.

Colleen - I have already jumped in this challenge and it is fun.  I posted my second post this morning in the contest.  This is good for our industry and good for any member who does it as focusing on the positive is always better than moaning about the negative.  I am hoping we have tons of people jump in this one!

I agree with you Barbara. I have been trying hard in the last six months to stay up on current news and it's an adjustment to focus on positive instead of getting caught up in the nation's negative attitude.
