TIME TO STEP TO THE PLATE!
QUOTE: "If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn
more, do more and become more, you are a leader." John Quincy Adams. Gymbeaux Quote: If your
actions in fact inspire others, find ways to contact more people and therefore
inspire more people and then teach those people how to pass it on by inspiring
even more people. This is one way to
leave a positive legacy for others to follow.
People of inspiration rarely complain, instead they find ways to make
things work or be improved. It is easy
to find issues and when you do, you inspire very few people if the conversation
dies by only identifying the issue. But
welcome the player who can not only find issues to be concerned about but to
also find workable solutions to resolve those issues. Those people are rare in deed, except for you
of course.
YOUR ST˜R POWER, SCRIPTS FOR YOUR SUCCESS FROM HOWARD
BRINTON: www.StarPower.com. LISTING PRESENTATION –
PRICING: (Gymbeaux Note, there is no
right answer to this situation). “Let me explain to you the impact of
computers and what they do to the way buyers select homes. The buyers are approved for a certain loan
maximum and that determines the desired price range of homes to view; say
$225,000 to $250,000. So they search
information on the computer for homes with the features they want in the area
they prefer in that price range. If your
home is priced at $252,000, you may miss that buyer. Instead, you’ll get people looking up to
$275,000. Those buyers will be seeing
bigger homes and comparing yours to those.
You lose their interest. This is
a dangerous tendency which I call missing
the market. I want you to hit the
pricing target so that you can profit to the maximum.”
WISDOM FROM MICHAEL DUNN, author of What’s
The BIG Secret from Page 103, a quote from Jim Rohn. Let others lead small lives, but not you. Let others argue over small things, but not you. Let others cry over small hurts, but not you. Let others leave their future in someone else's hands, but not you! Gymbeaux Note: This goes hand-in-hand with Erma Bombeck's quote slightly modified by me, "The grass always appears to be greener over the septic tank." Every time the market turned a little south, I found it extremely easy to find myself invited to "pity parties". This is the time I had to work extra hard at regaining my focus on what was important to build my business and to avoid the temptation and invites to co-miserate with others. Others who aren't that focused and those folks, certainly not you, were very easy to find...small lives...small things...who cry over small hurts...and the big one, not taking responsibility for their own futures.
THE GENIUS OF JOE TYE; NEVER FEAR; NEVER QUIT; EXPECT A MIRACLE! Rule
#5:
GIVE FEAR A NAME AND IT BECOMES
JUST A PROBLEM. Give fear a
name. Talk to it. Force it to be rational. Name your fear and it becomes just a
problem. It is easier to solve problems
than it is to conquer nameless fear. http://www.sparkstore.com/success-motivation-book-cd-nfnq.html

DO YOU HAVE
YOUR NAME AS A DOMAIN NAME?
Most technical trainers suggest that if you have only one Domain Name it
ought to be your name.com if available.
If not available name.net is okay or even name.org. But you can experiment and try different
domain names such as: JimBrown.com and it is
NOT available and that is understandable with such a common name but guess
what, www.TheJimBrown.com IS available so
be creative. You have two Keller
Williams Realty web sites and each one has its own Domain Name but they are
complex and not very easy to remember.
You are strongly encouraged to purchase at least one Domain Name if not
two to use as forwarding addresses to your real KW Domain Names. If you have a blog, you may want a third
Domain Name. I personally have
several. www.Gymbeaux.com; www.ReadForAChange.com;
www.NuggetsForTheNoggin.com . The cost is only $14.00 a year through www.Domaindad.com. There are other less expensive sites to purchase
domain names but most if not all have add on costs to account for forwarding
the domain name (like a telephone number) and/or adding emails. I ran the entire roster and was surprised at
how few agents have their name as their primary domain name. In my opinion, purchasing your name is a
no-brainer and should be done before someone with the same name buys it before
you do. Anyone wanting help or wanting
to talk with me about this, you know how to reach me. www.Gymbeaux.com and JimBrown@gymbeaux.com. See how easy that is to remember? Are your web sites and emails that easy to
remember; doubt it.
THE WORLD OF STEVEN WRIGHT:
I almost had a psychic girlfriend
but she left me before we met.
SPEAKING OF AMBIGUITY: Why are Hemorrhoids called
“Hemorrhoids” instead of “Asteroids”?
UNDENIABLE TRUTHS: Obituaries would be a lot more
interesting if they told you how the person died.
SOMETHING FOR TODAY’S WORLD:
Make the
most of yourself because that’s all the self you are going to get!

HOW
TO REMEMBER THE FUTURE by Joe Tye: This is beyond good, this is great! As you read this, and I hope you do, also
keep in mind something else Joe Tye taught me.
Have you ever wondered who writes the horoscopes you read in the paper? Probably someone like you and me with no
particular skills. If that is true and
it is, why not write your own horoscope; it would have more credibility than
ones you are currently reading. Why not
write your own future? Hmmmmmmmmmm? http://tinyurl.com/d49ovnl
