What's Keeping You Busy These Days?

As some of you know, I didn't stay away from Active Rain too long. Yup, 1 week is all I could stand being away. As I try to tie up a few more contracts and closings this month (July), I'm starting to look as if my calendar is beginning to look less full. It very well could be time for me to get rested on vacation - (I might just have spoken too soon!).

I will be gone for almost 3 1/2 weeks to China - to the land where my grandfather is from. I'm excited as I have always wanted to see the house he grew up in. So, watch for the blog - for when I do get there. Yes, I do still plan to blog on vacation. Heck, blogging is fun!!!

So, what's keeping you busy these days? Is your warm weather starting to cease? Is your real estate season starting to slow down a little? If it is, do take some time to review your plans and goals. You still have 4 months to turn things around - or turn it up one notch. Remember what you do today can change your outcome 30, 45 and 90days from today. (Tip: You might want to notch up your blogging activities for consumers when you have some down time).

As for me, I've definitely slow down my throttle on my schedule this week and next. But my calendar is also filling up after I get back after Labor Day. What's the secret? What I did 30, 45 and 90days ago made a definitely in my phone ringing. I'm also reviewing my business plans and goals from last year, taking it into another year. Watch out for my blog about my 1st Year Brokerage in business blog soon.

Try it, if you havent already done so.

refinishing the floors in our home.  BIG JOB.

Hey - my mother-in-law lives in China.  She's been there for around 13 years.  I think she's around 82.  She teaches English as a second language in an all girls school in Foo Joe (sp?)

She loves it over there.

NO -- MY WIFE IS NOT A BEAUTIFUL ASIAN BABE :(

No Olympics for me... even though I might catch the tail end of it when I'm in Beijing. We'll see....

I'm still busy placing referrals.  Haven't seen the slow down yet but I feel a change coming in the wind after Oct 1.

Loreena, I'm sure you are excited about your trip. My mother spent a month in China a couple of years ago and the pictures she brought back were just breath taking. I'll look forward to reading your vacation posts.
