Here is a little movie I just came across.  It is a great little thought provoker. 

Too many times, in our day to day, we allow life to take our joy away, and then we try to pass that on to others that we have influence over.  We allow circumstances to control us, our feelings and how we treat others.  We have to decide that, no matter what is going on in our circumstances, we are not going to be  controlled by them, but that we are going to control them.  We have to look up, and beyond what is going on right now, realizing that if we hang in there and go through these, we will make it to the other side, stronger and wiser.  Life is what we make it. 

So many times I have looked back and wished I would have gotten into real estate "when the going we great and easy."  But, than I look at how many, who got in then, are still around, or should I say, not around.  It isn't the easiest money to make now.  There is allot of learning and work that is involved.  And than I think, "this is the right time, and I am in the right place.  This is our time.  The more I learn now, the better I will be, the more I can really help my clients through the rough times, and the more equiped I will be when the "good times" roll around again, as real estate does.  I wouldn't give up this time. 

I didn't know I was going to get into that.  Just enjoy the movie.  There is something in there that we all can use.  Remember, there is always something to learn.  None of us can know it all, especially in this business or in working with others.  Be blessed.

Chuck, thank you for the comment.  You keep it, too. Have a great week.

Michael, thank you.  I have to agree with you 100%.  I have gotten several leads off of AR lately.  I just listed 3 pieces of property from people seeing me here.  I am now, in several places on the internet.  This site has helped me become more and more visible.  I have a few others people who I am talking to about RE and a couple I have referred to others.  Where, in Vegas, do you work?  I use to live there, and have several members of my family still there.  Take care and be blessed.

Earl -- a "pearl" of a video.  Really awesome, but I couldn't get right back to your page.  Operator error I'm sure.  Thanks, and God bless you!

What a wonderful and truthful post.......i am actually feeling a bit of the same.......I was praying last month because my school job was ending for the summer and I had a lot of spare time so i remembered i had to take my  REal estate Continuing ed courses before november....so since i had so much time..i took them and as i took them i was feeling my prayers being answered as to "what i should do now"   ........and that same afternoon i finished my classes and went and bought a newspaper and i turned right to the classifieds where i found my good friend from my previous company was asking for agents for her NEW company ......so i called,,,we connected and i knew myprayers were being answered....and i signed on.....even with the market sooooooo bad and sooooo slow...im still gonna hang it there....
