So I took some time off last week to go with my husband to get PADI certified (SCUBA diving:)!
There, among other things, I learned the two most important rules to diving:
1. Never ever hold your breath - ALWAYS keep breathing!
2. STOP, Slow down and think before doing anything...
Interesting rules I thought - and much easier to remember under water than in daily life:):)
The weekend approaches and soon the town will be bustling with July 4th holiday activities and it looks like the weather is going to be perfect. We just had a cold front move through that is going to take the humidity with it and leave us with 85 degree temps and low humidity.
The family and I plan to spend some time on the beach and in the water and celebrating with friends the rest of the time. I hope you are able to do the same!
Be well and keep in touch!

DON'T GET TOO COMFORTABLE!
Are you enjoying the good times? Have you achieved your goals and become comfortable in the knowledge that you have reached the zenith of your life and career? But wait! Hold on just a minute. What if things were to change suddenly . . . and you ended up back at the proverbial "Square One"?
Maybe that's already happened to you a time or two. Perhaps your career took a sudden turn in a direction you hadn't anticipated, or a health problem caught you totally by surprise. What did you do then? Were you paralyzed by fear? Did you feel cheated, or angry? Did…

So it happens every day. or so we hope! An appointment gets scheduled - A home gets shown (my desperate sellers know you showed up because they went to the neighbors and spied on you and your clients every move through the curtains) and then, nothing!!!
An e-mail gets sent asking for feeback, and....nothing! A phone call gets made, again, asking for any input on the home you took the time on a Sunday to peruse, and....nothing! It is the most frustrating of moments to have nothing to tell this desperate homeowner who felt like the world would change for them in 10 minutes on this Sunday!
Feedback is, to so many I speak to in the industry, an obnoxious waste of time. So many say, if their clients had any interest in the home they would have made contact!!!
REALLY???
To me, feedback is a way, as REALTORS, to support each other in every market - good or bad! Sometimes it is a way to get constructive criticism to our clients in a non offensive way! A way to once again say "We need to lower the price", a way to finally get rid of that neon pink room - and other times to pat our client on the back and say, "Your house was wonderful, just not what they are looking for". Feedback is not only our link to our clients, but also our link to each other!
So, we don't work for the same Team or the same company... so why should you help me? You can go it all alone in this world, But I can promise you it is a lot less productive and a lot less interesting!!! I am here to tell you all, big and small, United We Stand, Divided We Fall:)
