CHOCOLATE! VANILLA! STRAWBERRY! Choices? Doing the right thing? Choices? From the earliest stages of life we encounter choices each day that shape our future and our life. In life we are faced with these many decisions. Some of these decisions are large and some are small. Some just guide us through are day while others can be life changing.
However, some small decisions can lead to large impacts on life. Each day we are living life and we face many challenges. Depending on how we conduct ourselves each day has an impact on who we are and how others see us to be.
I believe as a person and as a real estate investor you should strive to be the best person you can be doing the right thing and success will follow. In the 1940 Disney classic Pinoccio, Jiminy Cricket can be quoted as stating: "Always let your conscious be your guide." These are good words of wisdom to live by!
These are wise words to live by as you continue on this journey of real estate investing. Each day you are faced with decisions of how you allocate your time. Are you being productive? If not what do you need to change? Do you treat people the way you want to be treated? Are you doing the right thing even if it causes you to lose money or not make money? Always remember you want to do the right thing.
It comes down to your reputation as a real estate investor and a person. It shows integrity and Jiminy would tell you it shows CHARACTER!
Quotes can be very powerful words to guide us. Let's take a look at a few quotes:

"Honesty is the cornerstone of all success, without which confidence and ability to perform shall cease to exist." -- Mary Kay Ash
"Real integrity is doing the right thing, knowing that nobody's going to know whether you did it or not." -- Oprah Winfrey
"The greatest homage we can pay to truth is to use it". - Ralph Waldo Emerson
