I could be the WINNER! All I have to do is an internet search, So I searched! This is what I found.

"If you're going through hell, keep going." - Winston Churchill

"In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity" - Albert Einstein

"Success is a state of mind. Basically, anything you want, you can have! You just have to have dreams, believe that you deserve those dreams, and work your butt off to acquire them. But success is there for the taking, so TAKE IT!" Unknown, but it sounds like Nightgale.

"People of mediocre ability sometimes achieve outstanding success because they don't know when to quit. Most men succeed because they are determined to." - George E. Allen

"There is always more than one way!" - William Archambault Jr

Love the Einstein quote. If this profession were easy, lawyers would do it!

Last time I spoke to Dave Sayer he told me you're already a winner Bill and of all the quotes your's is the most relative to this business. The Prize Patrol is on their way!

I agree wtith Steven and always try very hard to make sure that my clients do now really know the stress or anguish that went into the back end of the transaction. You... Bill... are a winner.

Bill - I love all those quotes, including the last one. How often I hear people saying that if they had to do it again, they are not sure they would do it. They did it and achieved success, because they did not know it wold be so difficult and they were getting more and more involved as they went.

Doug,

So do I!

With regards to lawyers, I opened my first two real estate companies 36 years ago this month with my attorney! I also raised one.

Kevin,

That's reassuring! PHS sends out all those notices and so far they remind me of day old yard sale signs, lots of promise little value.

Thank's George!

Steven,

Yes and no!

We need to be different only when it's necessary to get the job done! All to many think that you need to be different just to be different. When normal works for your client be normal!

As diffrent as my approach is/was every thing had been done before. I take the best ideas and apply them my way. No client wants to be a test case!

Thanks Melissa!

Luck happens to people who make their own luck. I find luck is usually better known as hard work and determination.

Todd,

It's all luck according to lethargic losers.
