Have you ever thought about an Elastic? How you can pull or stretch it and it does not break but instead just snaps back. I have been doing a good deal of thinking about the Real Estate market that we are in. I personally think it is a great time to be in the business and even a better time to be a buyer since they have some many options of homes to choose from and at the same time great loan programs that are government supported. 

At the same time we are hit every day with negative from the media. Negative from the amount of houses that are boarded up due to foreclosures. Negative of people thinking that they can not ever get a loan since their brothers friends sister saw something on the news that loans are hard to get.

So that is where we go back to the elastic. It is simple we must become an elastic if we are going to do well in this industry. We know that we must always be bringing value to our past clients, business contacts, and the overall community that we live in. So when something hits you that is negative you must bounce back VERY VERY quickly and get refocused on what is important.

If your family is healthy. If you enjoy what you do for a living. If you know that you can impact other lives in a positive way then all is great and you should snap back like and elastic.

I am blessed to be in this profession. To be an expert in the mortgage field in MA. To have a healthy and happy supportive loving family. To that I say good night and please consider being and elastic this week.

Thanks what is it that your greatful for? How will you ensure you bounce or snap back this week when guidlines change in the middle of one of your loan processes? Or one of your buyers get cold feet.

Edward, I feel the strongest and the more professional of our industries will survive this economy. You're right about the sensationalism that the media is promoting is only hurting the public with fear...

Thats a good example.  You do need to be able to bounce back.  Sometimes you are stretching the limits and things may seem shakey, but you need to be able to bounce back and get focused like you said.
