There are a lot of sayings that come to mind when thinking about the people around us.

A man is known by the company he keeps...

Birds of a feather flock together...

One bad apple spoils the bunch...

We are not bound in our life by proverbs, but it is easy to pick up the attitudes of those around you.

Take a look at who is around you in your daily life. Are they positive or negative? Helpful or hurtful? Toxic or healthy? It's been said - via another  proverb - that you should fear an evil friend more than a beast because a beast can wound your body, but an evil friend can wound your mind.  Keep positive people near you at all times and purge the rest.

This does not mean that all your friends are Pollyannas or that you block out the bad news.  There is a lot of bad news in real estate today; if you don't see if, you will miss the opportunity to react and respond to it.  What you must to be successful in this market is turn any challenges you see in the news and turn them into opportunities and surround yourself with people willing to do the same. 

Imagine the impact of a group of positive people collectively working together. The synergy that comes from that group can change the world - or a least the real estate market in your neck of the woods.

Make A Commitment: I will stay positive and choose to be happy!
