Speachless Sunday: Just let yourself go.........

Real Estate Agent with Tim Monciref 0374754

It is times like these that the successful become more successful, and the stagnant stay stagnant.  The successful see times like this as great opportunities to expand their business(es) more than ever as very few others are either able or willing to do so.

The tough part is to make that decision to make that big plunge further than you ever had before.  It is so easy to say, this is the time to hold back and see where are the cards end up.  I say this is the time where you can expand your market share so much easier than you could during a boom market.  Yes that first step is a bit tough as you don't see the financial rewards.  You will see market share expansion while income goes down.

But then you see finally see the bottom and realize that all the effort and the financial risk was worth it all.  The worst thing that could happen is that you fall flat on your face.  Odds are pretty good if you stay stagnant you may end up on your face anyhow.

So get out there and make the big jump of your life.  Everyone will tell you not to do it.  It's too scary.....you might get hurt.....what if your "parachute" does not protect you.....what if....what if....what if....what if......

Did someone actually dive under you with a camera to get that shot of your thumbs up?  Wow.

 

I think Elayna just wants to admire that tan...almost as unbelievable as the jump -- certainly as enviable.  (I've never tanned:  just burn and peel, that's me.)

Glad you did not crash and burn.                                Make that:  did not crash or burn.

Great post.

Jim, I am now noticing the tan.  I got a natural tan, you know.  Try aloe vera gel.  Love the 'crash or burn' comment.  Tim, who shot the pic?

This was supposed to be a Speechless Sunday.....but after throwing the pictures up, I had to write something.  Total peace.....sort of like the feeling of scuba diving.  I never would have thought that previously.  Just got two more tickets to go again.........

Tim,

This is awesome!! Our neighbors twin girls (both 18) just did this but didn't tell their mom until after their jump! They said they didn't want to cause her to have an anxiety attack!! Looks like a thrill a minute!! Great analogy!!

My wise old grandmother taught me a secret that has kept me from feeling the effects of recessions and other doom & gloom events: Simply create a plan for where I want to be in five years and then break that plan down into years, months, weeks, days, and hours. Then work those hours and days persistently and consistently. It works.
