WHAT IS APPROPRIATE DRESS FOR A REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONAL by Marti Cliff. Ms. Cliff is right on with her article, the question is, “Is she talking about you?” We have a very reasonable dress code in the Market Center which is posted in the Resource Room. Dress that would be considered inappropriate in the office would definitely include shorts, torn jeans, sweats, etc. Remember our customers come to the Market Center and even though you “think” you will be in and out and not noticed, that is simply not the case – you will be noticed either by your teammates or our customers. http://activerain.com/blogsview/1853393/what-is-appropriate-dress-for-a-real-estate-professional-

BACK TO WORK; BACK TO SALES; BACK TO REALITY. Most sales people, especially in real estate (but certainly not you) use the summer to offer up a lot of excuses such as vacation time, kids are out of school, too hot, etc. This is Jeffrey Gitomer’s response: http://perfectconnectiongolfswing.com/free-golf-video-lessons-6?source=fb&creative=a6

MEDICAL NEWS: CANCER: I was shocked to learn today that 1 out of every 2 men and 1 out of every 3 women will experience some form of cancer in their lifetime. That is unbelievable. STAPH INFECTIONS: Over the past year I also discovered just how easy it is to acquire a Staph Infection having had it twice in less than a year. On both occasions I had what appeared to be a red ant bite that just would not go away. The Dermatologist took a sample to be tested and the Staph infection was diagnosed. Here is a web site that explains Staph Infections. Recommending you pay attention to what your body is telling you. http://www.medicinenet.com/staph_infection/article.htm. FLU SHOTS, it is that time of year again and everyone is encouraged to get a flu shot provided your physician agrees. If you find yourself coming down with the flu or severe cold systems try to stay away from the office. This is especially true for children who stay home from school because of flu-like symptoms, please do not bring them into the office. I think everyone would agree that spreading flue and cold germs is not a good thing.

GRATITUDE - COMPLAIN AND REMAIN
"If you complain, you'll remain, but if you praise, you'll be raised."Joel Osteen
I love today's quote because it gives us an easily memorized phrase to help us remember that what we put our emotional energy into is what'll grow in our life.
When we complain, we remain in the circumstances that we're complaining about. That's where we're putting our energy, so we get more of it.
Complain about your boss, and she'll get meaner. Complain about your job, and it'll get worse. If you
complain about your kids, you can expect trouble and you'll get it. (Gymbeaux Note: Same applies if you complain about your customers; you’ll get more of the same type of customers.)
Stop right now and answer this question: what is your favorite thing to complain about? Hmmm, interesting, eh? So here's a better approach. As Joel recommends, find something to praise. (Gymbeaux Note: A tip from Dr. Joseph Parent, author of Zen Golf. Keep a note pad with you for a week. Make three columns. Column 1, “I complained”; Column 2, “Someone else complained but I listened”; Column 3, “Someone else complained I excused myself.” Every time you catch yourself complaining about something put a mark in Column 1. When you catch yourself listening to someone complaining put a mark in Column 2, if you engage in the conversation put a mark in Columns 1 & 2. Every time you hear someone complaining and excuse yourself from the conversation, put a mark in Column 3. You ARE going to be surprised at the results.)
In every situation and every person there's something good to focus on. Find it and praise it. Remind
yourself of it every time you're tempted to complain.
The first thing you'll notice is how much better you feel. After all, how do you feel complaining? Pretty rotten, right? Why do that to yourself?
So the first result is that you'll feel much better, more optimistic, more hope. It's worth doing just for that!
But over time you'll notice that you have less and less to complain about, even if you wanted to. Oh,
there's always something you could complain about, but you'll find that you're not even tempted.
You'll know that what you put your energy into is what grows, and that you really enjoy putting your
energy into what's right. You'll be grateful you did.
Many blessings, Wes
