The One Thing

While on vacation I read The One Thing by Gary Keller. Yes, I guess I do eat, breathe and READ real estate. I had heard it was a great business book about how to prioritize what is important to you and your career and in everyday life, I don’t typically have time to read books. The book spoke about living with purpose and holdings yourself accountable. Words that everyone needs to hear but being self employed I have found that it can get hard. Purpose gets drained by deals, paperwork, new homes to show and a packed full schedule. 
How true. This statement made me stop. A little over a year ago I sold everything I owed, packed my car and left NH to CO for something different. Vowing for a different life; one with purpose, one with passion. It is interesting how adjusting to Denver my old habits have snuck in. Not that my habits were bad or unhealthy; they just were not going to create a different life than what I had in NH. I am a firm believer that success happens outside of your comfort zone and that is not where I’ve been living. 
Create new habits if you want something different. I’ve identified of number of things I need to change to expand in both my business and personal life. What do you need to change to live outside of your comfort zone?

Relaxing in a Hammock

Since I am returning back to work from a week in Kauai, I thought I would chat about where I spent most of my time last week – in a hammock! Hammocks are so absoltely relaxing. They are a great spot to lay and red a book, lounge around with a drink or take a nap.  Hammocks are frequently found on resorts on islands, but, why do I now see more around in Denver? The climate would allow for a hammock to be used almost year round. 
Why does rest and relaxation have to only happen on vacation? Lets all create a paradise in your backyards, starting with a hammock!

Need an idea for all your jewelry?

If you are anything like me, you have far too much jewelry. My necklaces clutter my bathroom sink until I eventually get fed up and store them in a box, never using them. I have seen a lot of DIY projects for ideas on how to store and showcase your jewelry but this idea was one of the best I have seen yet. 
How do you store your jewelery?

I was lucky enough to represent a family that just recently moved to Denver from Florida. Moving cross country is one of the most life changing experiences but also incredibly stressful and exciting. This home in Henderson sits on a corner lot, has 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and an unfinished basement for the family to put their own touches on.
