I write this with all good humor.
Does it seem to you that time is flying by faster than before? ...It's a little spooky, (like this photo to your left that I took not long ago)...but folks, when you think of it...isn't a "little spooky" engaging?
...The mysterious overtones of time...even though a "little spooky", are quite intriguing....especially when you think about this...Time may be an illusion ...
Time may be an illusion ...but it must be the most convenient invention humankind ever came up with, especially for those in the process of buying and/or selling property-
Time is the super tool for making meetings when almost everyone else does... And folks....tell me if time is not the element that helps us in "getting organized" within the framework of how the non-ordinary real estate professional manages his/her ordinary, everyday transactions. I say "non-ordinary" in a pat-us-on-the back sense. It takes someone special to slice time and tasks up and serve them with style. I got thinking about it...again with all good humor...and it occurred to me that .
Time is what keeps everything from happening at once ! ...
Time is what keeps everything from happening at once !! ......What if we had not invented time? Would we all, hundreds and thousands of us, be huddled at the closing table at 9:00AM? Well, enough wondering. It does seem to work out. ... you just have to be careful not to get behind or ahead of yourself. I know some folks who, when slipping and sliding down a wintry slope on the morning walk with their dog, are thinking about what they did last night......and I know some folks who,on that same walk are thinking about what they are going to do by the fire later that night. ...SO...2008.... and learning to manage time while not getting behind or ahead of yourself...that seems like an interesting challenge....
Time Management and My 2008 Predictions. . .with time in mind
- I predict when we get together for our staff meetings, that not only will we bring our various note pads and folders so that we can get through our staff meetings in a "timely" manner. but that we will elect a "designated clock watcher" to keep us moving forward and on track.
- I predict s/he won't be able to be all that effective given how most real estate professionals love to talk...share our business-at-hand.
- I predict here at Active Rain we will continue to carry that love of discussion (and learning) to our colleagues...and spend some very late-night hours doing so...because it works.
- I predict that trends toward sustainable innovation are timely now....
Time and the Practice of Real Estate in 2008... So what do you think of these notions about time in terms of what might/might not be happening in real estate in your neck of the woods?

So well said. I am working on "time" myself. No more dwelling. No more gossiping. Right now, I have focus on business & family. Immediately, I need to get to bed....
