buffini and company: Take Action: Hindsight 2020
- 08/03/20 06:01 AM
"Experience is a hard teacher
because she gives the test first,
the lesson afterwards."
~ Former Pitcher, Vernon Sanders Law
Your action for today
is to think of something you
would do differently in hindsight
and what lesson did that experience teach you.
My coach used to say, "You already paid the price,
you might as well learn the lesson and get you money's worth!"
Design an extraordinary Day!

buffini and company: Take Action: Against Clickbait
- 08/01/20 06:11 AM
"It's easy to get people's attention;
what counts is getting their interest."
~ Civil Rights Activist, Philip Randolph
Your action for today
is to see if you can capture someone's interest.
It's tempting to suck people in with a sensationalized title;
but, can you hold them with your subject matter?
Researched facts, writing style and subject matter count if
you want readers not clicks. Comments not "likes".

when we should use things and love people."
An Unknown Author
Your action for today

I'll be calling my son who's 22,
attending Sac State,
working as a security guard for the campus,
and always "too busy" to call Dad.

"Great opportunities to help others seldom come,
but small ones surround us every day."
~ Author, Sally Koch
Your action for today is to
look for an opportunity to help someone.
Today I will be installing 2 CO2 Detectors

they can avoid appraisal concerns

buffini and company: Take Action: Seek the Truth
- 07/28/20 06:14 AM
"In seeking truth you have to get both sides of a story."
~ Broadcaster, Walter Cronkite
Your action for today is to revisit a situation
where you made some conclusions about something
or someone that may not be totally accurate
because you didn't have all the facts.
My trusted holistic healer / nutritionist
I used to think performed a charlatan's voodoo.
It looked ridiculous and fake to the skeptical eye.
But, once I got to understand energy healing
I completely retracted my suspicions and now
heal 3 times faster through her than my doctor
when sick or afflicted.

buffini and company: Take Action: Learn The Lesson
- 07/27/20 03:40 PM
"Here's the key to being free from the stranglehold
of past failures and mistakes:
learn the lesson and forget the details."
An Unknown Author
Your action for today is to reflect on a lesson
you've learned from a past mistake.
One lesson for me to learn from was: dwelling on the past.
It's a mistake to miss your
present by dwelling on your past.
Past mistakes, loses, past relationships and
past "used to be's" .
Learning to improvise, adapt and overcome
afforded me surving my past mistakes
and traumas; eventually thriving
in the "new normal".
Weed your garden, make room for the blooms!

buffini and company: Take Action: Celebrate Your Differences
- 07/26/20 04:50 AM
Take Action 🔥 is a Daily Post 😉👍
-
"No two men are alike, and both of them are happy for it."
~ Rabbi, Morris Mandel
Your action for today is to identify and celebrate
the differences between you and your spouse,
partner or someone close to you.
I think it took several years for my bride to finally understand
that the differences in us make the whole of us.
She used to think we were "just too different".
And it wasn't because we are an interracial couple.
It was because we were wired differently (as we all are).
We had to learn who each other were -
and how to speak each others Love Language.
I shared that "people and … (43 comments)

buffini and company: Take Action: Enjoy How Bad You Are
- 07/25/20 08:32 AM
"If you can't learn to do something well,
learn to enjoy doing it badly."
~ Baseball Analyst, Bill James
Your action for today is to identify something
that you're not very good at,
and by looking at it with a new perspective
find something to like about it.
For me that is the absolute joy I get from
playing guitar and drums.
I play daily, and I'm amazing...
...ly mediocre 😂🤣😂
But what a JOY! it is to learn and make music,
even when I'm my only audience.

buffini and company: Take Action: Be Nice
- 07/24/20 08:37 AM
"It is nice to be important, but it is more important to be nice."
An Unknown Author
Your action for today is to write
a thank you card or note to someone.
I have received 3 personal notes in 20 years
from Brian Buffini of Buffini & Company and each made my day.
I have written over 7,000 personal notes in my real estate career.
I know my number because I've documented them in my CRM, along with calls, pop-bys and client parties.
When you write a note to someone, the question to ask yourself
is how can I bless this person's day?
When they read it, it should warm them … (9 comments)

buffini and company: Take Action: Not Words
- 07/23/20 02:52 AM
"Small deeds done are better than great deeds planned."
~ Clergyman, Peter Marshall
Your action for today is to do something
that helps the environment,
such as using less water,
or bringing your own mug
when you buy coffee at a coffee shop.
We stopped buying bottled water 12 years ago.
We use a local well, water delivery service out of Santee, CA
and we invested in metal hiking canteens
and lets face it,
title companies always give away hard-plastic water bottles.
No more trashing Mother Nature's fine work -
with mostly non-recyclable plastic throw away bottles.

buffini and company: Now is the Perfect Time for Homeowners to Sell
- 07/21/20 07:16 AM
Now is the perfect time for homeowners to sell...
Buyers are back looking for homes and entering the (almost) post-Covid housing market, while sellers over all are enjoying a robust and competitive market. However, I'll caution you here in San Diego that move-in-ready sells quicker in most areas of our county, much faster than homes with deferred maintenance.
The housing market is experiencing a mini-boom that will last, perhaps, until the end of 2020 and into 2021. As a homeowner and to the real estate professionals out there, you need to take advantage of this demand. You have equity in your home, you … (7 comments)

- 07/20/20 02:21 PM
"If you can't help it, don't think about it."
Actor, Carmel Myers
Your action for today is to take a situation
that has you worried.
See if there is some action you can take to address it.
If there is, take it.
If there isn't, let it go and focus on something else.
"Worry is a payment we make in advance
towards a debt that is seldom collected."

- 07/19/20 01:29 AM
"Faith is taking the first step
even when you don't see the whole staircase."
An Unknown Author
Your action for today is to take a step
towards one of your BHAGs
- that's a Big, Hairy, Audacious Goal!
I just joined Noom
and got a weight loss coach (step 1),
my BHAG is
50LBs down by Valentine's Day 2021

...The Beauty In Your Life
"Everything has its beauty, but not everyone sees it."
~Confucius
Your action for today is to pay attention every time you walk
into a new place, a garden, or room.
Stop for a moment and look for its beauty.
Design an extraordinary day!
Three of my favorite hobbies bring this daily opportunity into
my observations of the moment: golf, hiking and gardening.
I always laugh at my Dad who prides himself on getting through 18 holes
of golf in 3.5 hours. What!?!
We're on millions of dollars worth of beautiful landscaped
property and he wants to get through it. … (2 comments)

- 07/18/20 06:29 AM
"People of character do the right thing,
not because they think it will change the world
but because they refuse to be changed by the world."
~ Ethicist, Michael Josephson
Your action for today is is to reflect on a time
when you did the right thing and one where you didn't.
Take time to notice the difference
and how you felt at both times.
I was taught by an antidote long ago,
you can be the carrot, the egg or the coffee bean.
The world is a boiling pot:
You can let it make you soft/weak
like the carrot turns in boiling water
You can let it make … (8 comments)

buffini and company: Take Action: Fuel Your Opinion with Facts
- 07/17/20 07:28 AM
Fuel Your Opinion with Facts
"The fewer the facts, the stronger the opinion."
Psychologist, Arnold Glasgow
Your action for today is
to see if you can gather some additional facts
about a strong opinion you have.
Political Facts
Racial Facts
Health Facts
Market Facts
Other ? Facts
...all seem to be lacking in 2020 and causing people to behave out of fearful click-bait
and headlines, rather than on factual, researched information.
Jim Rohn used to say "Be a student, not a follower; do your own research, form your own opinion." Zig Ziglar used to say fear is...

buffini and company: Take Action: Measure Your Wealth
- 07/15/20 07:08 AM
Measure wealth not by the things you have,
but by the things you have for which
you would not take money."
An Unknown Author
Your action for today is to count all those things
you have in your life that are priceless.
You know the old question:
"If your home was on fire,
what would you grab on the way out?"
The last 10 years of my life, despite some major life challenges
and set backs, I've mostly been truly happy.
That has lead me to this answer to that question:
From my heart and my gut...
My Bride, My Son and My Dog
and if there were time, maybe...

buffini and company: Take Action: Fail Forward
- 07/13/20 06:26 AM
"My great concern is not whether you have failed,
but whether you are content with your failure."
~ Abraham Lincoln
Your action for today is to review a recent success
you've had and see if you owe some of that success
to a failure from your past.
Failures are Feedback in our "student of life" lives.
They are in fact the feedback that warns... this is not the way.
It doesn't mean you quit, it means try something different.
Don't quit; adjust.
