You Have The Cool Clear Eyes Of a Seeker Of Wisdom And Truth

"You have the cool clear eyes of a seeker of wisdom and truth, I believe in you"

So Sings Finch in the opening of "How To Succeed In Business With Out Really Trying." Finch succeed, but only because the play was scripted! Unlike plays life and real estate is totally unscripted. Still so much of what Finch believed is true.

"I believe in you..." was sung to a mirror, he was singing to himself. Believing in yourself is perhaps the most important requirement for success.

"The cool clear eyes of a seeker of wisdom and truth." Is possibly/probably the ultimate sign of both success and potential greatness. I believe in you! I believe in me!

But, I’m concerned! Are we all seekers of wisdom and truth? Or just expediency?

Our network is the greatest source of real estate information and wisdom in real estate. Our network is also the disseminator of more gratuitous testosterone laced bovine drooping, ever outside of TV Gurus.

Seekers of wisdom and truth can indeed gleam it from our ranks. But, you must seek the truth and toss the compost! You must really try. You must seek wisdom. You must seek truth. You must judge the value in everything you read here.

Some of the most valuable post also contain sincere ignorance, illegal and immoral shortcuts.

It’s the sincerity of the commentary and personal naivete that lead to the dark side of real estate and the law.

To succeed you must really try.

To succeed you must question everything. You must believe in yourself even when seeking wisdom and truth.

"You have the cool clear eyes of a seeker of wisdom and truth..." Use them.

I really enjoyed your post.  I agree with you. We must first believe in ourselves if we want anyone else to believe in us.

Bill I have not seen "How To Succeed In Business With Out Really Trying." Singing in a mirror to yourself "I Believe In You" might sound strange, but I bet more people would succeed if they followed that practice.

George,

This was my feeble attempt to put a positive spin on a negative comment.

"Some of the most valuable post also contain sincere ignorance, illegal and immoral shortcuts.

I believe in you, I do, but I'd hoped to make the point you must be a seeker of wisdom and truth!

Thanks Mike,

I've never worried about points I write when I have something to say, but it's good to get them.
