Connection causes change

Connection causes change...

You will change every person you interact with.

The question is:

How will they change and to what degree will they change?



Alexander Graham Bell turned distant pen palls into no longer isolated friends with the invention of the telephone.

Thomas Edison turned candle people into lamp people.



So, do not mistake your clients as just clients.

Nor your acquaintances as only acquaintances.

These individuals will become the impact you make on them.



An acquaintance becomes someone different when you connect with them.

The question again…

How do they change from the connection?



Your success is dependent on the nature of that change.



Weather you disappoint someone or you surprise them with satisfaction…

The impressions you make on people will set the tone of their future interactions.

And the stories they tell about you.



These people can become your advocate or your enemy.

They can be the reason other people search for you.

They can be the reason other people avoid you.



Through every problem you solve and each life you touch…

You are changing people.

By connecting with them.



Acknowledgement allows you to ensure the connections you make…

Matter in a positive way.



By reaching into the source of the problem.

A source that always lies beneath another persons skin.

Where all bad experiences wait…

Half-fixed...

Unfixed.



Acknowledgement is the remodeling of bad experiences.

It is reconstruction.

The removal of the duct tape attempts of those who came before you.



Patiently remember…

The person before you failed the person in front of you.

Leaving this disappointed person…

In your hands to change. 

Someone that can become more than a client…

If you take the time to permanently change their story for the better.

It Takes Two to Tango

-
Getting your clients on the same page can be a challenge. It can be similar to teaching a couple how to dance. You can have the best music in the world. Provide the best stage. Showcase the dance floor with beautiful mood lighting. But if the two dancers refuse to tango together… There will be no dance. To have a Tango dance there have to be two partners dancing in sync with each other. Can you picture a Tango where the two partners both try and lead? Or worse, where no one leads? That is what it feels like where you have clients who are not on the same page for what is important when buying a home together. They often will look at you their agent and say the reason they cant make it to the “grand finally” is because of your failure at instruction. You should know better than to believe that . You cannot force a couple dance together. Similarly, you cannot complete a transaction with o...

Follow Your Gut: The real reason why you can trust a "gut feeling"

-
    “A gut feeling is instinctual.” It is either good or bad. That is often as deep as the explanation goes. We are going to go further so you can trust yourself even more… When you feel something in the pit of your stomach that is your bodies reaction to a stimuli that reminds you of everything you have come to know thus far in your life. All in a fraction of a second…whew! Everything that has ever happened to you has been stored in the Cortical Networks of your brain. And your brain sends a message to your stomach. The head makes decisions about a situation, and prompts you to pay attention. But the head is smart (redundant I know) The head is so smart it knows that it will out think itself I it doesn’t enlist help from the part of you incapable of doubt… And with your best interest in mind, the brain sends a command out. To your gut. By sending the memory related information to your stomach. Figuratively conceptualized as ...

To Grow Or To Stay

The Dilemma  If you work hard and make the sacrifices others are either unwilling or unable to make... One day you will find yourself having to make an uncomfortable choice as a contractor. You will eventually reach a crossroads where you have to decide if what you are doing now is the most you will do. The main constraint at this juncture is that you are at the mercy of physics like the rest of us. You can only be physically present in a certain number of places in one day before it becomes very obvious you have maxed out your time. Something big is happening here that many people do not think about. Most people think that if they chose to grow they are putting a lot on the line. Sacrificing family time or temporary income to train people to help you grow but that isn't what will change. If you are at this juncture you have the juggling thing down. The fact you have a decision to make rather than one that way decided by a lack of business proves my point. No, something more is goi...
