Being Unprepared is Like Swimming Without Water Showing up without proper planning is a poor work ethic in the making. It's also irresponsible. Consumers depend on professionals every day to help guide them to solid decisions while achieving sales goals.  Can you imagine if everyone in the business arena showed up to work but were not ready, willing or able to perform? Filling out paperwork, determining wants and needs, discussing every minute detail, including time-lines, terms and conditions matter. Good communication and follow through is expected by clients. To avoid unintended consequences, it's imperative to: Meet all deadlines within the REPC  Represent well the buy/sell side of a transaction Practice consistent cooperation with everyone involved  Distractions tend to pull attent... 01/19/2022

Prepare for the fallout. While growing up, many adults offered good advice like, “Do not wake up the sleeping bear." “Don’t poke a hornet’s nest.” Or “Let the sleeping dog lie.” "Don't shake a burdened tree." All for good reason. Conversations on social media platforms create an opportunity to share information between one another, to catch up, to teach, to learn and grow.

Water Seeks its Own Level.  You can tell a lot about people by the company they keep. It's human nature to search out friends, colleagues and peers that are comparable to themselves. The quote, "People like people like them." runs true. Here are some examples of that quote. Some people are:Resiliently buoyant...Confident people attract similar personality traits. Successful people align with the best professionals possible within their industry. It makes good business sense plus encourages excellent outcomes. Wishy washy..Some tend to modulate between floating and sinking. They tend to tread water like the dickens to remain at a higher level but are easily caught up in schemes, giving in to the gravity of current situations. Bottom feeders...Some people lack the ability to change, assoc... 01/21/2022
