By this I mean. . .do what you feel is right and be proud for taking a stand for something you believe in. There is a saying that goes. . .Doubt yourself and you doubt everything you see. Judge yourself and you see judges everywhere. But if you listen to the sound of your own voice, you can forever rise above doubt and judgment and can see forever!
I own an Independent Real Estate Brokerage - hooray for me (right?). I bought this super expensive, highly visible and extremely small office nearly 3 years ago. The sign is huge and there is reader board below it. It is double sided and has 4 lines on each side. I would advertise on it - for example, "Short Sale Specialist" or "Custom Home Site". .. you get the gist.
One day something came over me. . . I decided to post inspirational quotes on my board - 2 each week. I hired big, strong, senior boys with backgrounds in acrobatics because you have to climb a 12 foot ladder to change this sign out. I started creating a list which I am sharing below (Some I have posted and some I plan to):

I wondered if anyone would notice. Drum roll (no pun intended). . . I have had so many random calls and people stopping in to thank me for posting what I place on this sign. I am blown away. One lady came into the office yesterday to express how the sayings were really helping her and she appreciated the fact that I wasn't inhibited by what others may think. Well, enough said, I will continue to post sayings that are uplifting and spiritual. I have always marched to the beat of my own drum and this will never change.
