With the Economic turmoil being felt around the Globe, Realtors need to see the positives!  I am not walking around with blinkers on, nor do I profess to be a sage economist, but I do believe that if everyone involved in the real estate industry found one positive thing to say every morning, to everyone they meet, about the market, then we will be a loud voice pointing to the good and not being sucked into the bad.

Today, Go forth knowing that the dollar is strengthening against the Euro and the Canadian Dollar and that Gold is hitting record highs.  With some positive calisthenics, the dollar may continue to build its power back and that is good for the American economy!

Imagine a world without "For Sale or Lease" Signs, imagine newspapers without real estate sections.  Think of banks without mortgage departments, insurance companies without homeowners policies.  Can you see your sidewalks free from apartment & real estate guides, how about no Home Depot or Lowes.  Yes, these are all symbols of our indulgent economy, but they are also the bedrock of that economyReal Estate & Our Industry are not going anywhere, we just need to change the Public's Opinion.

  The National Media has been too long dwelling on the negative, why not embrace the power of the positive!  Let us all join in the chorus(anyone who's job or future depends on the industry); Let's all find the positive and SHOUT it from the streets, sidewalks, to passing cars:  We are America and we shall overcome this economy, too!  We are America and we are Golden!  We are Realtors and we shall lead America out of this economic turmoil.  We are sales people- Let's sell Americans on investing in America for the LONG TERM!

God Bless America.  Now, chest out with pride, arms raised in triumph and declare a positive- in your local market, within the stimulus plan, from the International Economy, find ONE and SHOUT!  We can be Millions of voices with one positive message; and that alone may change the Economic face of the World and it all starts with you, Now - Today!
