rest recover: Are You Winning The Epic Battle of Home Life vs. Work Life? (PFS 004) - 07/01/18 10:28 AM

 
Rest & Recharge is as important as Listings and Closing Escrows! Last week I produced a podcast on Boundaries, which is a continued effort to remind entrepreneurs, small business owners and Realtors to stop and smell the roses. You get one life, don’t blow it! Two years ago,
I posted a series of blogs regarding balancing work and home, business and personal and the challenges with that and disciplines required for it.

I very often debate with other agents about the merits of rest & recharge vs. 24/7. Look, you can … (8 comments)

The Sweet Nothing of Sundays 4th of July Edition
 
Shhhh, I’m doing Sunday, My Silent Sunday.
 
No Phone, No Text, No Emails, No Meetings...Silence.
 
 
Sometimes we flop all day and relax, read books, work in the garden, etc.- then go for an evening hike to get some exercise and enjoy the beauty of San Diego. Today we hiked a trail that pops us out (eventually) on the UCSD Medical Center in Science Research Park, adjacent to UCSD. There's a curious building here, it looks out of place. I've driven past this for years never noticing it; it took hiking to discover the obvious.
 
What is this … (6 comments)

The Sweet Nothing of Sundays
 
Shhhh, I’m doing Sunday, My Silent Sunday.
 
No Phone, No Text, No Emails, No Meetings...Silence.
 
The Sunday Office This Week was UCSD's Challenge Trails
A wonderful Sunday Hike with our dog Peroni.
You feel like you are out in the boonies, without ever leaving the campus of UCSD.
 
 
The value of a precious day off:
Recharge Sunday to Take Charge Monday!
Time away from clients; time with family & friends.
Showing up to work Monday with the best of you, not what's left of you.
Time to engage your goals, hobbies and interests.
Time to give back to others; causes and social outreach.
Time to do nothing at all!

rest recover: A Winning Equation: Run - Rest + Recharge x Recover = Success! - 03/10/17 12:58 PM

I cringe when sales people e.g. real estate agents brag on how little sleep they get, how available they are by phone to their clients and how they'll leave the dinner table or a family vacation to assist a client. They think theirs extra trophy's, extra pay, extra credit for this behavior...NOT! They are heading for the big crash, the burnout that kills the joy, the enthusiasm and the effectiveness of that agent's skills. The big crash can show up in their health, their marriage, their relationship with their kids, their production, etc.
Lack of sleep, lack of rest, lack of down time, makes us … (8 comments)

A view from "The Bench"
Today is a day I value being benched.
Sundays are for quiet reflection, relaxing and recharging in my world.
They are a day with the family and friends,
investing in the relationships dearest to me.
Pursuing my personal goals, enjoying my hobbies or the sweet joy of doing nothing but relaxing in the sun, with a good book on a bench with a view.

Job Posting: No Day Off, No Vacations, Apply Within (part 1)
 
 
I wonder how many people would apply for that job?  Guess what? Several thousand do ever month in The Real Estate Industry. They jump into real estate for the “freedom” and the lack of a financial ceiling (did they know there’s no financial floor either)? They get to be their own boss, work flexible hours and oh by the way; they “love people & houses”! Ah, then reality hits like the mirror of an actor before hair & makeup. You’re at the whim of your clients’ behavior and schedules…or so it … (3 comments)

rest recover: Running On Empty? - 11/21/15 12:25 AM
Are you running on empty? We Realtors, agents and sales people in general, run on "people-fuel".
When we run low on it , it shows up in our attitude, performance and reactions vs. responses.
 
It's simple, schedule a go hard 6 day week, then take a day off. Unplug from the business and recharge with family, hobbies, exercise, rest, a book, a date, the game on TV, whatever relaxes you.
I truly believe most sales people do not take a day off out of guilt. They don't feel they deserve it, because they know what they did (or didn't) do with their day. If … (11 comments)
