A comment left on my last blog about  why Realtors need a mantra ("See the job, do the job, stay out of the misery") noted that the real way to focus and move through the stress of our daily lives is by using meditation. Amen!

More than 5 million of us around the planet use Transcendental Meditation (TM), a simple technique that improves brain function, promotes health, increases creativity and intuition, reduces stress and settles the mind allowing clarity of thinking and focus. TM is worth considering if you aren't meditating -- the benefits are remarkable and measurable. Visit www.tm.org to learn more about it -- and my thanks to candyshoes for bringing it up!

When we take care of ourselves, we can better take care of others. As Realtors, that's our charge!
