season, the definition of our government gets no better than this: “Government is like a baby: An alimentary canal with a big appetite at
one end and no sense of responsibility at the other” Ronald Reagan

CONTINUED (from last week’s newsletter which is archived on the blog): “I’d
like to know if you stayed here, what would you change in this home for the
next five years? Then, what I’m going to
do is to see to it that the top REALTORS in the area get a flyer on your home
talking about all these things that you’ve done to your home. I’m going to also send this to my favorite
people in the top echelon of the corporations that I do business with. This flyer will help kickoff my personal
marketing of your home. (Note: Flyer could be a flyer, email, blog, webpage,
etc.)
WISDOM FROM MICHAEL DUNN, author of What’s
The BIG Secret. http://michaelpdunn.org/Success.html From
Page 141. Some people might say they need someone with whom to share all their
problems. If you can find a way to spend
your whining time helping someone who is worse off than you are, your past
hurts will dissolve away. The more you
dwell in self-pity, the more you bury yourself in bitterness and addictions. (Gymbeaux Note: It is another version of the Law of
Attraction. You tend to attract into
your life more of what you think about most.
Constantly think and talk about your own problems and you get more of
the same. “Stop digging the hole you are in before”, as Gary Keller says, “before you start hanging pictures in that
hole.”)

ORGANIZED FOR SUCCESS OR FAILURE, By Colleen Francis via www.SalesDog.com As you read this, you will read this,
right? As you read this keep in mind
that you already have a contact management system in place with eEdge. So the question is: Are you using it to its
fullest extent? What I have found most
useful in the contact management systems I have used in the past was that as I
spoke with someone I was able to insert notes on the prospects page on the
system. Then when I called back or the
prospect called me, I could call up the prospect’s page and review the notes
either before I called or as they called me.
I could then immediately follow-up on something that was said or agreed
to in previous conversations. Read the

THE LAW OF THE GARBAGE TRUCK
Author Unknown
One day I hopped in a taxi and we took off for the airport. We were driving in the right lane when suddenly
a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us.
My taxi driver slammed on his brakes, skidded, and missed the other car
by just inches! The driver of the other car whipped his head around and started
yelling at us.
My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. I mean he was really friendly.
So I asked, 'Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car
and sent us to the hospital!' This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now
call, 'The Law of the Garbage Truck.'
He explained that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of
frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up, they need a place
to dump it and sometimes they'll dump it on you.
Don't take it personally. Just
smile, wave, wish them well, and move on.
Don't take their garbage and spread it to other people at work, at home,
or on the streets. The bottom line is
that successful people do not let garbage trucks take over their day.
Life's too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so ... Love the
people who treat you right. Pray for the
ones who don't. Life is ten percent what
you make it and ninety percent how you take it!
Have a garbage-free day!
"Faith is not believing God can, it is knowing that God will."
"If we ever forget that we're one nation under GOD, then we will be
a nation gone under." -Ronald Reagan
