positive attitude: Take Action: Keep Laughing
- 11/02/20 07:03 AM
"You don't stop laughing because you grow old; you grow old because you stop laughing." ~ Keynote Speaker, Michael Pritchard
Your action for today is to see if you can find three different opportunities to laugh.
😁😂🤣😅😁
My first heroes were comedians. Groucho Mark, Abbot & Costello & George Carlin, etc. I always sought the laughter to heal my pain and as a way of connecting my introverted self with others.
"I intend to live forever, or die trying." ~ Groucho Marx

positive attitude: If You're Happy and You Know It...Tell Your Face!
- 08/25/20 06:06 AM
Brian Buffini of Buffini & Company Coaching always reminds us as we are going about our days with family, friends and clients ...or just staring back at him on stage from the audience:
"If You're Happy and You Know It...Tell Your Face!"
Remember to smile...and if your on the phone let them feel your smile through the phone. People actually learn better through levity too!
😁😃😄😆😂🤣🙂😉
My sales manager Richard, at Coldwell Banker called me into his office one day back in 2010, very much during The '07-'11 Crash, after hearing me on the phone all stressed out with a "short sale negotiator"🙄. Apparently was being very vocal about it...who me? Richard said, "Tommy, you're going (24 comments)
positive attitude: Take Action: Be The Bean

"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
"Criticizing another's garden doesn't keep the weeds out of your own." An Unknown Author
Your action for today is to see where you might be doing the same thing for which you are criticizing others.
I take two steps forward, one step back sometimes with criticizing others. I have to remain conscious and vigilant. So funny how negativity is natural default and being positive takes so much effort.
Design an extraordinary day!

"Take charge of your attitude. Don't let someone else choose it for you." American Writer and Lecturer, Dale Carnegie
Your action for today is to see how you can choose to be happy regardless of what happens to you during the day.
We live in a country of advanced citizenship, it challenges you to pursue your happiness; it doesn't provide happiness, only the opportunity to pursue it. You have to take the action steps and be vigilant about your it.
I argue happiness is an externally triggered feeling, it comes and it goes. Joy is an internal, consistent feeling if you first know, accept and love who you (6 comments)
The pandemic is a magnifying glass and it's trained on us - mankind. It has exposed people, revealed who they are during change, uncertainty and fear. Some folks are very Positive and Uplifting, others are Chicken Little and their sky is falling. Some people have vanished-where'd they go? They do not return calls, texts or emails...why? Others are more present than ever, funny and encouraging calls, posts and videos, etc. Some people are performing amazing acts of kindness, charitable efforts and fun videos to lift our spirits. Other are spreading selfish negativity, doubt and fear.

positive attitude: Pause, Plan, Pivot, Proceed!
- 03/28/20 01:05 PM
Pause, Plan, Pivot, Proceed! I’m sharing a philosophy I practice, born of deeply personal events in my life. I’m not preaching at you, nor do I seek converts; I'm simply sharing and I know you can think for yourself...chew the meat and spit out the bones. I will not buy into the media sensationalized hype, I will not abide negative chicken little people and I will not cower in fear even, though I am aware of the seriousness of this virus and the state of the world. I believe the responsible thing to do is stay home, stay healthy and not hoard supplies. I understand (26 comments)
I certainly am going to work out daily, as usual. Staying healthy is critical. I just won't do it at the gym. (5 mile hikes with my dog have been my exercise of choice 5x week). I certainly will shower and dress for work each day. I just have a really short commute to my home office across the hall. I certainly will limit my exposure to sensationalized, fear mongering news. I will stay informed through a balanced and trusted "mutual fund" of resources. I certainly will work in my business per "usual". I just won't (45 comments)
I recently interviewed Buffini & Company 's CEO, Dermot Buffini on my co-hosted Mail-Right Real Estate Agent Podcast. Dermot (self proclaimed "student of the game") and I covered a lot of fertile ground and topics. But, one of the most poignant moments for me personally is when I asked him about overcoming set backs. The mindset and methodology of staying the course and being OK with the journey getting off course, yet the direction remaining True North to your goal. The straight line of the journey becoming a (18 comments)
