Learn from the woodpecker and keep using your head to reach your goals

Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams First Coast Realty - The Marro Team

This weekend I had the opportunity to get a few good photos of a family of woodpeckers in my back yard. I'm told they are pileated woodpeckers, but I'll be honest, I don't have a clue. 

With a new camera and the desire to be a little creative, I've been creating little motivational photos - like the ones you see being passed around facebook. When I looked up, "quotes about woodpeckers" I thought of how perfect this one is for my life - and maybe yours too.

I don't know about your business, but for me this about sums it up. Frequently the road to success is simply using your head to finish what you've started.

Melissa - Great photo and great analogy!  What camera did you buy?  I have a Pileated Woodpecker who lives near my house.  For some reason, he's taken to pecking on my roof at 5am every morning!  I would dearly love to shoot him, but not with a camera!  Grrrrrr...

Sally - I bought a Canon 7D - the one Birgit recommended. I'm still learning how to use it though. I've never had a DSLR before. 

Fortunately we've only had them on the trees, and not on the house. I can understand how you would feel though. =)
