thomas j nelson realtor: Take Action: Verify Your Truth
- 08/18/20 06:24 AM
"Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth." ~ Roman Emperor, Marcus Aurelius Your action for today is to examine one of your strong opinions, and question if perhaps the facts that support it are not opinions themselves. Now, natural laws, math and science aside, it took me a while to agree with this quote, until I realized some of my strongest opinions were hand-me-downs opinions from my parents. In our pre-election, "mask debated-pandemic world", this quote seemed appropriate. Verify Your Truth. Design an Extraordinary Day! I post daily without fail, a quote & action step...

thomas j nelson realtor: Take Action: Measure Your Worth
- 08/17/20 06:11 AM
"A true measure of your worth includes all the benefits others have gained from your success." ~ Writer, Cullen Hightower Your action for today is to think of three people who have benefited from your success. For me I sum it up this way... 1. My Family 2. My Team 3. The Clients We Serve Design an Extraordinary Day!

thomas j nelson realtor: Take Action: Track Activity, Measure RESULTS!
- 08/15/20 06:36 AM
"Don't tell me how hard you work. Tell me how much you get done." ~ Industrialist, James Ling Your action for today is to see if you are preoccupied with how hard you're working rather than focusing on the results you're getting. I see this mistake with my fellow Buffini & Company coached REALTORS* They post how many calls, notes and pop-bys they accomplished each week. But, I never see the results of that work posted. We have to evaluate the quality of the work we're doing, not just the volume. The winner doesn't have the most tasks done, They have the most clients served so well, that they become advocates during and after escrow. Design an Extraordinary

thomas j nelson realtor: Take Action: STOP! Look and LISTEN
- 08/13/20 05:36 AM
"Maybe if we did a better job of listening, history wouldn't repeat itself." An Unknown Author Your action for today is to actively listen to your spouse, friend or customer. Observations of my sins and maybe yours... In 2020, especially in the news and online, people do not have conversations; they poise & position for rebuttal. People seem to read headlines and then react, without reading the whole story first. People don't listen, they pause for their turn to talk, if they don't just cut you off first, and they've not hear you, because they are too busy formulating their response. The art of debate (listen & response with thought) has been lost

thomas j nelson realtor: Take Action: Outperform Doubt
- 08/11/20 07:28 AM
I went for a classic quote today . 😉👇 "Whether you think you can, or whether you think you can't, you are right." ~ Henry Ford Your action for today is to identify something that you have accomplished where others doubted that you would. Reviewing your accomplishments is one great way to remind yourself how far you have come in life. It also serves a motivator when you are facing a new challenge in life, to review challenges you overcame. "I did it before, I can do it again". You, can inspire...YOU! Design an Extraordinary Day!

thomas j nelson realtor: Take Action: Get After It
- 08/10/20 06:22 AM
"A man is a success if he gets up in the morning, gets to bed at night and in between does what he wants to do." ~ Songwriter, Bob Dylan Your action for today is to evaluate on a scale of 1-10 as to where you are in relation to living the life of your dreams. Then decide, what would need to happen to make it a 10? Now Get After It! Design an extraordinary Week!

thomas j nelson realtor: Take Action: Kill Comfort
- 08/09/20 07:15 AM
"Comfort comes as a guest, lingers to become a host and stays to enslave us." ~ Linguist, Lee Bickmore Your action for today is to do something that will push you out of your comfort zone. Falling 12,000 Feet in 60 seconds at 120 MPH Out Of My Comfort Zone (then). I couldn't say that now, as I now love to skydive! Still have a fear of heights LOL. Design an extraordinary Day!

thomas j nelson realtor: Take Action: Within Yourself
- 08/08/20 07:18 AM
“Character is a quality that embodies many important traits, such as integrity, courage, perseverance, confidence and wisdom. Unlike your fingerprints that you are born with and can't change, character is something that you create within yourself and must take responsibility for changing.” ~ Jim Rohn Your action for today 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. The difference can be inner-peace vs. inner-guilt. The pain of letting myself down-of eroding my character, regardless if I "could have gotten away with it" is not one I choose to self inflict anymore. That

thomas j nelson realtor: Take Action: The Happiness Choice
- 08/07/20 06:01 AM
"A happy person is not a person in a certain set of circumstances, but rather a person with a certain set of attitudes." Broadcaster and Television Producer, Hugh Downs Your action for today is to focus on maintaining a happy attitude for the whole day. Faith-based inner joy and forgiveness are powerful forces for finding happiness. "Optimism, Faith and Inner Joy are what fuel my happiness. Happiness is more than an emotion, it's a choice. But happiness can be affected by what is happening around you. Joy is deeper, it's less common and it's harder to steal, because Joy is based on what's happening within you." ~ Thomas J .

thomas j nelson realtor: Take Action: Become Valuable
- 08/06/20 07:06 AM
"Try not to become a man *(person) of success but rather try to become a man *(person) of value." ~ Albert Einstein *modified for my 2020 audience 😉 Your action for today is to contact one of your clients or customers regarding something unrelated to your product or service that would add value to their lives. This has been the single most effective "secret to my success". Less than 20% of your competition stays in touch! Staying in touch between transactions, remaining a helpful resource and being a voice of value. In many cases, becomming friends or at least friendly-familiar in the process with my SOLD clients. This is where

thomas j nelson realtor: Take Action: Empty Your Purse
- 08/04/20 05:47 AM
"If a man empties his purse into his head, no one can take it from him. An investment in knowledge always pays the highest return." ~ Benjamin Franklin Your action for today is to check your credit card statements or your check register to see if you have recently invested in your education. I discovered this quote in 1995 and took it to heart. I invest in my education annually with a new training program, (typically a Ninja Selling, Darren Hardy, Jim Rohn or Brian Buffini creation), monthly with a new self-development or history book to read, then daily through my coaching with Buffini & Company and my reading and interactions here in The

- 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.
