What I Learned This Week at ActiveRain June 3 to June 9, 2018.

 

I learn something new every day at ActiveRain! With this series, I try to highlight one post per day that gave me that lightbulb moment. It could be something techie, something about Real Estate or the other professions that I never knew, about a place, or about a person. Or, it could be a post that made me sit up and take notice!

 

lynn b friedmanJune 3: Lynn B. Friedman Atlanta Buckhead-Technology-Watch a Simple Problem Solving Session.

This may not exactly be new but if you want a good solid belly laugh...watch the video!

 

 

grant greeneJune 4: Grant Greene Humble Pie Tastes Awful

I wasn't sure where this was going but when it got to where it went, I loved it!!!

 

tim maitskiJune 5: Tim Maitski The Value of a Good Story

I love this post and when you think about it, so much of what do in life, whether it is in our work or personal lives can be enhanced by a good story.

 

kate mc queenKate McQueen  What happens if the home inspector damages my home?

Good question and it's even more fun reading the answers. How about weighing in?

 

brenda mayetteJune 6: Brenda Mayette 1000 Greats vs. One: Where is YOUR Motivation?

What a wonderful post to motivate an agent and not just the new ones!!!

 

bill robertsJune 7: Bill Roberts What I Think About the National Association of Realtors.

There have been so many interesting posts about the NAR for this month's contest but thought you'd like Bill's post!!!

 

william feelaWilliam Feela Do you treat people well?

Simple can often be better. William's post is a good reminder to take a look in the mirror on occasion before we judge others.

 

john henryJune 8: John Henry    Don’t Read This Blog

Well, I did read the blog and I hope that John will not be too busy to write more for us.

 

kathy showeJune 9: Kathy Showe Anthony Bourdain, Kate Spade, Robin Williams...what can be done?

Never hesitate to reach out and ask someone how they're doing or if they need help. You never know, but we can try.




Don’t forget to check out Carol Williams  Second Chance Saturday posts as well.  I always find a post or two that I missed.

Thank you for letting me do what I love to do each day...learn something new.

Thank you for featuring my post.  I just finished responding to a comment from an AR member who said he wants to take his life.  It is such a sensitive and difficult subject and should get more exposure.  High profile deaths by suicide has brought more awareness- but we need to do more.  I believe in reaching out, in letting people know we care.  Thank you again.  Take care.  Kathy
