HOW TO KEEP A STIFF UPPER LIP IN A DOWN MARKET...HERE IN THE RAIN

Business is really tough right now, isn't it? The economy is messy, lenders are floundering and the Real Estate market is just plain lousy. When business is bad, money is scarce, everyone and every business is generally affected. I know I'M LETTING IT AFFECT ME & MY ATTITUDE and I (as only I can) need to do something about it and do it now.

I admit it, my attitude stinks like old dish water and I'm guilty of complaining too much. I'm forgetting to focus on the good things happening in my life: a new grandson, a wonderful man who loves me, a roof over my hard head and plenty to eat (you can tell by my wider behind) and so MANY more blessings.

It's a proven fact that it is healthier to be positive verses negative. We are what we eat and what we feed our brain. So, I was recently thumbing through groups here on AR that make a huge attempt at keeping the spirits up regardless what is happening around us. You will recognize some, of course, but perhaps not all. If life has been getting to you, check out one or more for yourself and see how POSITIVE POSTS CAN WORK: (I only made a list of ten, but I KNOW there are more).

  1. POSITIVE ATTITUDE FOR THE WEARY SOUL
  2. NOTHING BUT POSITIVE
  3. FRAICHE AIRE
  4. ENCOURAGING POSTS
  5. THEM THEM
  6. POSITIVE QUOTES
  7. HALF FULL
  8. PAY IT FORWARD
  9. THE OPTIMIST
  10. I'M A SURVIVOR

I pledge to make a POSITIVE change in my life by focusing on the "good" around me...

Kat - positive attitude will get us everywhere.

Michelle; I am here now...Kaden (my angel grandson) and I, and I can tell you: YOU'RE RIGHT.    I may have to sneak him out when I'm ready to go.   Oh, he is so sweet! I TAUGHT him, already, how to do raspberries! Tee Hee

Sharon: Boy, isn't that the truth PLUS&

Your there and I'm here in Arrowhead with family having loads of FUN! Kaden is one lucky guy to have you for his Grandma! Hope you have a great time!

My graphic for this comment is raspberry! Too funny!

Michelle:  Go to my personal blog and see my newest video... And his raspberry


  

I was doing well at keeping positive but dipped a little today when my clients were almost too scard to write an offer due to the bailout situation.  Just when I was getting more and more calls from buyers each week!!!   Thanks for the positve and upbeat post...I should bookmark it!

Jane: Oh, I bet most of us feel your pain!   But you know, I am seeing more buyers coming out, myself. Let's keep a stiff upper lip.
