positive real estate news: I am feeling abundantly positive. Positively! - 02/21/09 06:49 AM
My wife and I were talking and she excitedly expressed an idea that made me change my thinking.  She said that it's amazing there are so many pine cones from one pine tree.  The ground was covered with cones.
That got us thinking that there is so much abundance around us.  The limits we experience are placed by our own actions, thoughts, or attitudes.  The world seems to be designed to express and to offer us abundance!
What keeps me from accepting that abundance?  My own limits.  Not enough time.  Not enough energy.  Not enough this.  Not enough that.  Because one … (14 comments)

positive real estate news: Doncha ya love statistics. OR START typing the GOOD news! - 12/11/08 08:35 AM
So I spent some time playing with data today.  When I last used the OFHEO report to study the national real estatemarket, the title of the report was "Decline in House Prices Accelerates in First Quarter".  As I read through the report, I noticed that more than 1/2 of the United States was actually appreciating and not declining as the title stated.   It was one more example of reporting good news as bad.

positive real estate news: Does your brain see the good or the bad? - 12/05/08 03:17 AM
The other night my wife watched part of a television special on the brain.  She said they had the viewer do a fascinating experiment while watching the show.  The TV screen was full of small, active, blue dots.  Then three larger stationary yellow dots were placed in the center of the screen forming a triangle.  The viewer was told to focus their attention on the center of the triangle and on the blue moving dots.  Within a very short period of time the yellow dots started to randomly blink and disappear.  However, when she shifted her focus off the moving blue … (6 comments)
