"There is no use trying," said Alice; "one can't believe impossible things." "I daresay you haven't had much practice," said the Queen.  "When I was your age, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast." Lewis Carroll

I came across the above quote while sorting through some email today. As Realtors, we get A LOT of email. This one just happened to catch my eye as it was quotes pertaining to business planning for 2009. Seeing as how I JUST opened up my own brokerage, business planning is certainly ON. THE. RADAR!

I read that quote, and I smiled. Over the last 2 months I have flip-flopped between thinking "Am I NUTS?" to "I can do it!". Each day brings a different level of confidence. Of "go get 'em-ness". Of guts. Of faith.

Ahhh, faith.

You see, faith is in fact the thing I have strengthened in the last 2 months. It's those moments when I question myself, "Can I do this?" and "What if I fail?" when I remember that "I can do ALL things through Christ which strengthens me".

Although many would look at the economy and think that starting a real estate company NOW - in this economy -  is impossible, I would beg to differ. NOW is the time to take action. Because when the market picks up...AND IT WILL...I'll be ready.

In 2009 I will think about the above quote daily. I am challenging myself to think 6 impossible things before breakfast. I am also challenging YOU. Just think how much you could accomplish this year by JUST DOING IT! Think IMPOSSIBLE!
