I finally did it!  50,000 Active Rain points!

 

OK, it took me awhile to achieve this...a year and 9 months to be exact.  But, I am a 'slow and steady wins the race' kind of girl, so it's OK. 

  • I like to do things right...stop and double check what works and what doesn't and then reevaluate my strategies/goals/etc.  I do that not only with blogging but with everything I do in my life.
  • I like to learn from what others have to share and that takes time.  I'll admit that I no longer spend hours and hours like I used to because it became all too consuming of my time.
  • I like to share things of value to others, both within the industry and to prospective clients, so I try to be selective about my content and posts.
  • I do take time to balance my life out and quickly got over the AR addiction that is common to many newbies. 

So to all you Active Rain newbie-bloggers, keep on posting and commenting because you'll get the hang of it. 

To all of you super successful Active Rain bloggers, thanks for being so inspirational! 

 

Thanks, Active Rain, for being such a powerful platform for all of us within the real estate industry.

Abby ~ Congrats!  You have to do what works for you!  I'm trying to keep my evenings free of computer use, unless I'm looking things up for a job.

Abby,

Congratulations on the Big 50K.  That is a very nice accomplishment.  The thing that is not as easily seen is the amount of knowledge that you accumulated in the process.  As they say, "It is the journey not the destination that counts."

Congrats,  I am one of the newbies still addicted and trying to figure things out.  I will be so happy when I get to 50K and learn how to master blogging etc.  It's a good place to learn with all the newbie help.
