Self Pity is a Silent Killer

Self pity becomes a trap in our thoughts that moves us into the dark world of negative thinking, negative action and negative results.


If we yield to self pity we become involved in an endless downward spiral. This spiral can throw our lives into a tailspin where things get out of control and make it seem as if there is no way out.

When we become involved in challenging situations never yield to self pity.

We have to resist self pity with all of our strength to maintain positive thinking about our conditions and to stay focused on solutions, not in self pity.

Self pity is a silent killer and our worst enemy, positive thinking and focused efforts are our friend.

Our Doubts of Today Limit Our Tomorrow

Don’t allow our doubts of today limit our tomorrow.


The only time that our doubts will limit our tomorrow is when we give into our doubts and allow them to control our thinking, our activities and our life.

What we decide to do with our doubts becomes a personal choice.

We can choose to be negative and succumb to our doubts, or we can choose to acknowledge we have doubts and take action to overcome them. We can choose to face our doubts with a positive attitude, deicide what we’re able to control and to set the course to remove the doubt with positive thinking and through positive actions.

Our doubts of today become obstacles on our success journey; our tomorrows will be the result of positive thinking and overcoming our doubts of today.

Stay firm in your beliefs and don’t allow our doubts of today limit our tomorrow. Turn your doubts into the personal energy to remove them.

The Tide Will Turn

Motivational Power Quote

The Tide Will Turn

“When you get into a tight place

and everything goes against you

till it seems you could not hold on a minute longer,

never give up then, for that is just the place

and time that the tide will turn.”

Harriet Beecher Stowe, author

As I see it. . . . . . . .


The tide will turn


There are times that the things around us become overwhelming and it seems that we will be over come by the tide sweeping into our lives.


In moments like those we may feel that it would be far easier to retreat and push back away from our goals and dreams. In reality it may be easier to push back then push forward. But we will find that by pushing back things will not improve and we have surrendered our goals and dreams for a false sense of short term comfort.


We will find success in life not by surrendering but in standing firm in our resolve to push forward through the challenging waters in our life and to remain standing.


Every storm will pass with time; we may not come through the storm without some bumps and bruises but they will soon heal.


But what remains important as you whether the storms in your life is to keep your goals and dreams as your beacon to guide you through the turbulences that you encounter.


The storms in your life can turn you away from your goals and dreams or with your persistence the tide will turn to your favor. The choice is yours to hold on and the tide will turn.

Success Comes In Helping Others

Motivational Power Quote

Success Comes In Helping Others

“Successful people are always

looking for opportunities to help others.

Unsuccessful people

are always asking,

what’s in it for me?”

Brian Tracy, personal and business trainer, author

As I see it. . . . . . . .

Success comes in helping others

We form the building blocks for our success by seeking out the opportunities to be of service and helping others.

Successful people continually seek opportunities to help others achieve what they want. By helping others achieve more of what they want we will achieve more of what we want.

Our success will be in direct proportion of our services and helping others.

Unsuccessful people have a tendency to become self absorbed with their personal needs and will put their needs above the needs of their customers.

Successful people understand that true success comes in helping others.

During my visit I experienced a wide array of conditions. The weather ranged from being comfortable and in the mid 30’s to bone chilling freezing. There where snow flurries, sleet and blizzard conditions with all the weather conditions occurred in less then a week.


Moving to Florida in 1981 it’s easy to forget how the weather shifts in New Jersey this time of year.


This year New Jersey area experienced a cold weather and has by daughter would say they had enough show.


From the number of people that I spoke to they are waiting for the weather to change and the arrival of spring.


The weather in New Jersey is a lot like the seasons in our lives.


After the winter comes the spring and it becomes the time of year for renewal and new growth it’s also a time for the planting of new seeds.


Our real estate business is a lot like the seasons, we are now coming into the time of renewal in real estate. We may have to put up with a little bit more winter; but then spring will follow and our real estate business will be in a time of renewal.


Sharpen your tools and have the seed of a positive attitude ready to plant. For whatever we pant in the spring we will harvest in the fall.

There is no Success without learning

Moving into future is like leaving on a cross country trip without directions. The trip is become one of wandering and drifting without any directions.

Relevant knowledge properly applied becomes a powerful tool. The lack of knowledge becomes fatal.

A key element to the future is learning the skills and accumulating the knowledge that gives us the ability to master our field of endeavor. When we apply the skills and knowledge in an effective manor we move ahead of our competition.

The price for learning is paid today for future success.

Learning opens the doors to the future and greater success with the right keys. There is no success without learning.

Asking Questions Increases Our Performance

Motivational Power Quote

Asking Questions Increases Our Performance

“Asking questions will get you

the performance you are after

far better than dictating demands.”

Dan James

As I see it. . . . . . . .

Asking questions increases our performance

Asking questions is a sign of respect and showing sincere interest in the person that we are speaking with.

In response to asking questions we form a relationship with the person and build rapport.

Rapport opens the door for continuous exchange of information and communication.

When we make demands of people often this can shut off open and honest communication with the other person and they may feel threatened, angry, or both. From that point forward communication, relationships, and negotiations breakdown.

Making demands can also jeopardize a relationship and close the door on future opportunities.

As we continue to ask questions we gather information. When that information is properly utilized we are seen as a problem solver.

As a problem solver, we help the other person and we gain momentum that continuously moves us in the direction of our goals and objectives.

Asking questions increases our performance and places us in a win – win situation.

The Secret of Determination

“Determination gives you the resolve

to keep going in spite

of the roadblocks that lay before you.”

Denis Waitley, Author, Speaker

As I see it. . . . . . . .


The secret of determination


The secret of determination is formed within our choices.


Determination is a choice of seeing things through to a successful conclusion no matter how challenging the circumstances may appear to be or becomes.


Choose to visualize a successful outcome, see the ending exactly as you would like it to be and be determined to achieve your desired outcome.


A person who is truly determined and is committed to make the efforts necessary to reach their desired outcomes has the advantage of self – confidence in achieving their goals.


A determined person has an expectation of success before they start their success journey and they take the first step with a positive expectation of the outcome. They know the path that they will have to travel and they boldly step in the directing of their future with the expectations of succeeding.


Successful people are determined to succeed and replace the word failure with the philosophy that they are experiencing a temporary setback and believe that a setback gets them one step closer to reaching their desired outcome.


The secret of determination is in your choices and the first choice is to believe that you will succeed. The second choice is to take the actions to succeed and the third choice is to start now.
