Waking Up with The Right Perspective

How do you begin your day? Does the alarm jolt you out of bed? Or is it the call of your dog’s bladder as he runs his icy nose across your arm and rousts you out of bed to open the door? Maybe its the sounds of your kids fighting over the last bowl of Cocoa Puffs or that spousal reminder for the 20th time to “Don’t forget” some important thing you must pick up or else the world will end as you know it.

In this moment, this “right now” moment, your entire day is predicated. How will you respond?

On Saturday’s Unlock Your Wealth Radio show we talked about keeping our passions in perspective at every given moment, not just when it comes to our money, bills and personal finances. It would be very easy to lash out at any one or more of these scenarios as they are all “straw breaking the camel’s back” eligible in my opinion. We still have to get vertical, address all these things plus get our ownselves to work as well. If we allow a biochemical dump to occur and sour our stomachs first thing in the morning by reacting emotionally charged, what does that do for the rest of our day? What tone will that set for you and your family about mornings? More important, what long term detrimental effects will it have on your health, marriage, wealth, finances and family?

On Saturday’s Unlock Your Wealth Radio broadcast we offered this theory, between stimulus and response there is a space. In this space is your power to choose an appropriate response. Before you choose, think about this: communication is 100% your responsibility, NOT to get your point across, rather to elicit the right result. Now, does that statement change the choice you had in mind originally? Why or why not?

What would you choose in that space? What did you choose this morning? How did that work out for you? What did you learn?

These are not rhetorical questions. Please share your answers by posting to this blog.

Happiness is a choice not a circumstance some have and others do not. If you are not choosing happiness daily, hourly, minute by precious minute, why?

To your financial independence,

Heather Wagenhals

My last class for a new designation for CRMS Certified Risk Management Specialist is really provacative today. We are talking about agency law and the standard of care. We are currently on the subject of buyer broker agreements and why they are so important to the buyer to receive the full benefit of all a real estate professionals legal and ethical obligations. Without one in place, the agent may or may not be held accountable for his lack of care and professionalism.

So much for the market being down, after only his second week in the real estate business he has already written 30+ contracts, has 3 accepted offers and a new relocation client to boot. Life is all what you make of it folks. You can listen to the horror stories on the news about the economy and choose to believe that the world's gonna end or, you can take heed and address and live your life according to YOUR rules and make the most out of what you have. Whatever you focus on, you will bring to fruition. Norman Vincent Peale wrote about himself, "Happiness is a choice...so I choose to be happy"

Yes, it is that simple. So...what will you choose today?

Past the Dry Spell

So we are staffed up and ready to rock and roll. I have eliminated all excuses for not blogging on a regular basis anymore. The ezine is well underway and if you are interested in subscribing to the e-zine just drop us an e-mail at e-zine@unlockyourwealth.com and put "sign me up" in the subject line.
If you e-mail us today or tomorrow before noon we can include you in this weeks issue.

In addition to being staffed up, I am all teched up too with my new Dragon naturally speaking transcription software. Now I'll be able to dictate the blogs and get them out much faster than in the past.

We are in interesting times people or reaching from money management techniques like never before, everyone seems to need to have a leg up even though this economy we are currently experiencing isn't the worst we've ever had. With a lack of confidence in our country's leadership in watching the continual bumbling in our legislature with regards to Wall Street and Main Street people are looking for a new solution which is different from what we were taught are brought up to think about.

There's a few more things that need to be finished today before we put out the e-zine tomorrow so I will bid you a fond farewell for now.

Ciao. H. dub
