Online Newsletter for the Week Ending May 20

QUOTE:  “Be today; see tomorrow!”  Joe Tye.  Here is the rest of what Jeaux has to say on the subject:  Be Today, See Tomorrow: by this I mean to keep your attention on the challenges of the immediate present and never allow them to overwhelm you.  (Like) the way Aron Ralston stayed intensely focused on trying to chip away the 800 pound boulder that had entrapped his arm in a desolate slot canyon as a way of not thinking about the obvious implications if no one found him soon. But he also never let go of the dream that he would one day be back in the world of civilization, and that he would survive to marry and become a Dad. In tough times, leadership attention and vision dance a precarious dance - a dance that passes from tight focus on the daily chores and challenges and dreaming of distant successes.

NEW NUGGET FOR THE NOGGIN.  Are you working with an Agent?  This explains the need and the procedure.  www.NuggetsForTheNoggin.com

PAPERLESS NOTE:  You MUST submit your paperwork as it is being completed.  There is no way to make corrections AFTER a closing has taken place as the parties have all dispersed.  As for listings, it is embarrassing to send out thank you letters for a new listing when I don’t get them to see until weeks or even months after they were listed.
