Found yourself in a rut?

There are many different positions in life that we stumble upon. How do we get out of a bad place and get back on track. In our slowing economy many of you might find yourself in a "rut." What to do...well, I must say, now is the time to sink or swim people!! I live by a saying that my mother-in-law has had posted through out her house for years. 

     "If you always do what you have always done, then you will always get what you have always got"

 If you read this quote above and take it to heart, that could, maybe be your first step out. 

I went to a Tom Ferry conference today at Seatac and believe me when I say...there is no spilled milk for any of us in either the Real Estate field or any other profession out there to cry over. Opportunity is at YOUR and my door and it is a CHOICE we make everyday of our lives to get up and take advantage of what is right in front of us. It is opportunity and with thought and effort the idea of being stale or in a "rut" will soon pass. Life is not easy for most anyone, it is how you take your situation and make the most of it. Please just remember that even though things are not what they were 2 years ago in our local and national economy, does not mean that we stop, wait and moan. It means we take what we have and work with it.....and work with passion. 

 I know...cheezy, right? Take it as you will but I believe those who strive and stay positive will find their way out of that so called rut and succeed as not just a professional but also as a person. See you out there.
