"Cause Something to Happen"

The 2009-2010 college football season is upon us with the opening games last night. One thing I believe we can take from college football is a saying on a sign that legendary Alabama Coach Paul "Bear" Bryant hung in his locker room. "Cause Something to Happen"

I read a blog about social networking and how many "old" school agents are still prospecting and refusing to learn and use new technology. Many sit around and reflect on the good old days and grouse about how nothing is happening for them.

It would be wise to use Coach Bryant's saying in our lives. Things sometimes happen, if we are lucky, but if we cause something to happen we have control over the happening most of the time. Causing something to happen requires action on your part. It would be a good time to spring into action and cause something to happen.
