life lesson: Caruso's Quote of the Day! - 07/15/10 09:22 AM


You can't hit a home run unless you step up to the plate.
You can't catch a fish unless you put your line in the water.
You can't reach your goals if you don't try.

life lesson: Boost Your Search Engine Rankings! - 07/10/10 06:26 AM

Recently I read that the majority of real estate agents are missing out on a key strategy that will yield them much higher rankings on Web search engines. Most practitioners are competing with each other over short-tailed keywords, which are just a few words strung together that Internet users type in for searching purposes. However, this is a misguided step on the part of real estate professionals, since as much as 80 percent of all search engine activity actually uses long-tailed keywords - phrases typically consisting of five to seven words. For property searches, many prospective buyers have very specific … (132 comments)

life lesson: Caruso's Green Tip of the Day! - 07/08/10 06:19 AM


Ceiling Fans vs Air Conditioners Instead of running an air conditioner at a cost of 16 cents per hour or 43 cents per hour for central air, use a ceiling fan. However, if you use an air conditioner, select an ENERGY STAR variety, which will save 20 to 40 percent in energy consumption as compared with conventional air conditioners. And that's your Caruso green tip of the day!

life lesson: Caruso's Quote of the Day! - 06/10/10 06:53 AM


It is not good for all our wishes to be filled; through sickness we recognize the value of health; through evil, the value of good; through hunger, the value of food; through exertion, the value of rest.

life lesson: Caruso's Words of Wisdom - 03/20/10 05:27 AM

" For the billions & billions of those who lived before us,
their adventure is over.
Given another chance, most would take more chances...
not because they know they would have succeeded,
but because the glory of knowng they at least tried...
far exceeds any regrets of not knowing what might have been."    ~Vickie Morgan

life lesson: What you can learn from an ice cream sundae - 09/21/09 07:09 AM
Monday's Life Lesson: Before you pass judgment, first treat others with courtesy, dignity, and respect.
A 10 year old boy approached a soda shop counter and climbed up onto a stool. "What does an ice cream sundae cost?" he asked the waitress.
"50 cents," she replied.
The little boy reached into his pockets and pulled out an assortment of change, carefully counting it as the waitress grew impatient. She had "more important" customers to wait on.
"Well, how much would just plain ice cream be?" the boy then asked.
Irritated, the waitress responded curtly, "35 cents."
Again, the boy slowly counted … (6 comments)

life lesson: Are you the carrot, egg, or coffee? - 09/17/09 11:58 AM
A Life Lesson...
A young woman was complaining to her father about how difficult her life had become.
He said nothing but took her to the kitchen and set 3 pans of water to boiling. To the first pan he added carrots; to the second, eggs; and to the third, ground coffee.
After all 3 had cooked, he put their contents into separate bowls and asked his daughter to cut into the eggs and carrots and smell the coffee. "What does this all mean?" she asked impatiently.
"Each food," he said, "teaches us something about facing adversity, as represented by the … (7 comments)
