Over the last 7 or so weeks I have been putting up these blogs for all to see. Many have called me and claim the things I post DO NOT WORK. Why this and that are bad ideas. Every excuse you can think of.

I have been mocked, yelled at and told some pretty good stories.

I welcome it all. If I could not do the things I write, I would have concerns. If I have not already done the things I post, I would be really concerned. Any excuse will work.

I always welcome the negative. That's one way we learn. But all I ask is if you choose to mock, tell me why everything won't work, then simply prove me wrong - Actions speak louder than words!. I have no problem earning your trust.

If you choose to comment, then put your money where your mouth is is all I ask. I will.

Rather than complain why everything does not work, do something about it. I am not trying to say that I am the answer to all your problems. That I am some "special" guy that can do anything. Just the things I say. Certainly no less.

When I put something out into the Active Rain community, like clockwork, I get all kinds of calls. Each call sounds pretty much like this -

"Hey Jeff, I read your blog on ZXY - you're cocky. Everyone is doing the things you say. We are working on these things. You are not telling us anything new."

Well, either many of you are miserable because you are just selling so many homes and have so much money and time you just don't know what to do with yourself or, your not.

I've got pretty thick skin. If you don't like what I write, I have no problem with that. But if your going to comment or complain, back it up. That's all.

We are all here to learn, make contacts and hopefully get some business. Not a one of us has anything to benefit from being negative.

I put my money where my mouth is. You will be the first one to hear I'm wrong when I am.

As many of you seem to think I'm crazy and you actually take your productive time to call me with negative comments, then you are the type of person that would take great pleasure to uncover my inabilities and show all I'm a fake. I'll take the chance. Will you?

Look at all the posts on this site. Look at the ones with the MOST comments. See a trend? I do!

My e-mail is jeff@eslending.com to make things easy for you.

Good luck to all and thanks for reading!

Be my guest to publish what you like. If it is not interesting to you or your clients then it may not be a good idea. Learn as you go. I am always amazed on what I get calls on. Eric

Blogs are like diaries --- you post what you're thinking of, how you're feeling, what was interesting to you, your ups and downs, etc.

So blogs are like opinions. Everyone has one.

Just keep on doing what you're doing. If something works for you, then do it. If it doesn't work for them, well then tough. Through it all, maintain a good sense of humor.

Good luck.

Hi Jeff,  I read your post and what is alarming to me it that people have criticized you.  Why?  I found very informative information, well written thought out post and free suggestions to handle our business more productively. Everyone is in-titled to their opinion, that is what makes active rain go around,  as for me,  I like the idea that ..it has changed out there ..and if we are doing the same thing,  that we have been doing and it isn't working..well......it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure  out....we need to try something else.           As for me no criticism only a thank you for the reminders.
