Happy Holidays! Are you enjoying your time with your family and friends. I know I have really enjoyed these last few days. It is great to spend quality time with my husband, Dan, and our two children, Trevor (age 12) and Cassidy (age 10).
As I wind down my year (can you believe how fast a year goes) I start to think about what I want 2009 to look like. Every year I vow to eat better, exercise more, and excel at my career. 2009 looks no different.
2008 has been a challenging year for many people who make a living in the real estate industry. Each Monday I hold one-on-one consulting sessions with our agents. I help them overcome issues they are facing and also I help keep them on track to meet their goals. If you fail to plan you are planning to fail. So I believe it is paramont that you write out your goals. I also say "If you don't know where you are going how will you know when you get there?"
A great exercise that we have done that is also very fun is the "Future Letter". Have you ever written or read a Christmas letter? One where you talk about all the things you did throughout the year. What the kids are up to. Vacations you took. How your career is progressing. Take a moment to write out your Christmas letter as if it is December 31, 2009 and you are reflecting on everything you accomlplished that year. Make copies and share it with those close to you. Also post it in a place where you will see it every morning. Wouldn't it be great to end 2009 with everything in your letter acheived!!!
And finally, here is a video for those of you who have had a difficult 2008. I hope it inspires you to know that 2009 WILL BE FINE!!!
