Posts Just For You- This Week at ActiveRain-May 29 to June 4, 2022

  

Every day there is something to learn here at ActiveRain.  With this series, I try to highlight posts 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!

 

AlanMay 30: Alan May C'mon you won't melt!

I was speechless when I read this and saw the photos. What do you think?

 

JeffJeff Dowler Get Ready. Get Set. It's Time to Communicate.

Jeff wrote an excellent post about the importance of communication. Sellers and buyers are often surprised at the amount of communication that occurs after they've signed the contract!

 

DougDoug Dawes Memorial Day 2022

There were many excellent Memorial Day posts but this one was very special.

 

Margaret RomeMay 31:  Margaret Rome   Take a Hike

As they say, it’s not always what you say but how you say it. A good reminder from Margaret.

 

 

RockyRocky Dickerson Realistically an Optimist

I can remember in graduate school studying alpha waves and the ability to control them. Our minds can do so much more if we would just let them. I love Rocky's illustration of the pseudo-optimist.

 

Joseph DominoJune 1: Joseph Domino Soundtrack of a Lifetime-Ringo Starr

If you love music, you'll love this series that Joseph does for the month. He begins it with one of my favorites...Ringo!!!

JasonJason Regan   Be the Sponge   

There's more than one lesson to learn in this post!  It's a good read!!!

This was a fun read and I think we all can relate to this. 

 

 

 

DeniseDenise Lones    You Say You Want a Better Quality of Life

The point is it's up to you!   You choose what and how you get there.
