You all Get it, Don't You?

Mar. 17, 2008

I have been attacked again, another "person" who tackles me from my blind side!  I get an email from some unknown person who takes 500 words to slam me and tell me how evil I am.  Why I ask, is this person telling me how out of touch I am and on the take by one of the phone carriers.  The funny thing is I pay my carrier which isn't who this person accusing me of being "on the take".  If I was "On the take" would I have a cell bill at all, You all Get it, Don't You?

This person took me apart for not liking certain Smartphones which I honestly feel do not match up well for the Real Estate Industry.  Yes there are Smartphones out there that have a certain feature that is great, BUT it lacks in other areas, You all Get it, Don't You?

Some people are very sensitive to you not agreeing with there opinion and if you disagree with them you are a low life creature and attack you for your views.  You all Get it, Don't You?

The sad thing this person did not attend one of my seminars, somebody told them about what I said, hmmm was this person told the right info?  Did they have their facts straight?  What's cute some of the counter points this person made to me were way off and I found myself fact checking their side, guess they didn't bother checking mine, You all Get it, Don't You?

Finally this person accused me of misleading the industry with out dated facts and bias information.  Gee I think I try hard to save agents money and be a positive influence.  You all Get it, Don't You?

I am not looking for anybody to reinforce anything tonight.  It just so happens I needed to vent and hey here sits thousands of bloggers to vent to!  Thanks for the ears, well eyes and if you didn't get it my point is please look at your options and chose wisely when it comes to technology.  If your happy I am happy but please learn what it will take to make you happy!  Once you learn what makes you happy then You all Get it!

Dick,

I GET IT! There's always someone who feels the need to discredit someone who "GET's IT!"  The GET ITs vs. The DON'T GET IT's will always battle and us GET IT folk will always be the ones frutrated in the end due to their lack of knowledge, common sense, and ability to "GET IT!"

Thanks for the great ideas in MB. Keep up the great work in improving agents...Thanks~

Dick, I just sat your class today! It was one of the most informative and useful class I have taken in a long time. I had done some research and found your statements about equipment to be true. I can't Thank You enough for the abundance of information you gave us.  On the other hand I am a blogger and took some great life training recently which has changed my life and my perception as to how I used to percieve what was happening and what is really happening. The reason for my comment is that 90+% are positive comments on my Blogs. The couple of negative comments are always from someone that hasn't taken the training or comments without ever taking the time to research what they are Negatively commenting on!  Thanks Again!
