Getting Results Without Excuses

By
Real Estate Agent with DFW FINE PROPERTIES 0506509

In any business, it is very easy to get so focused on the big picture that we can forget to fill in around the gaps created in the process of getting to the end result. The rose petals remind me of the “growing pains,” it takes to achieve results.  Real success occurs when we can assess what we see, as strengths and weakness, and to refrain from getting too excited prematurely. Just like the beautiful rose illustrates, continuous pruning is required in order to triumph.  Each single petal contributes to the flower’s success. We gain perspective from this unique blend of one rose petal at a time. Each petal adds to the outcome. Everyday challenges meander round and round and adds tremendous value to the whole.

Now that spring is here growth is flourishing. May you flourish too and if you or anyone you know needs  a Real Estate professional , I’ll be there. My goal is to make progress, in reasonable time, to get results without excuses.

I love your wise words accompanied by the gorgeous rose.  I must say however, there are times I think I am a victim of "over-pruning". . .:-)

Hello Patricia: Carl is out inspecting but thought I would stop by. Absolutely things are flourishing with this wonderful spring. It's all about good service, reasonable negotiations and a sale. No excuses accepted, just a job well done by the professional bringing both clients to the table.

Have a great day.

Hi John,

I may not have as many points as others who started around the same time I did, or even those that followed but those who communicate with me are worth more than gold and silver. I'm glad to call you friend.

Morning Ms. Patricia I'm with you on this one each pedal represents a failure and the results area triumph.  So before it came to be the lovely rose there were many attempts until they got it right.
