On The Personal Side

Mother's Day is this Sunday (in case you've been under a rock or got one of my personalized calendar's that had it listed LAST Sunday!) and I want to mark the occasion.

My own mother died 44 years ago of liver disease, but her memory, zest for life and encouragements are part of the woman I grew up to be. I wish she could be here to see her two beautiful great-granddaughters that epitomize her genes, determination and feistyness. They each have a teddy bear made from her mink coat named Clementine, after her. I am sure she would approve that I cut the coat up!

So, if you still have a mother, I hope you connect with and appreciate her this week. If yours has passed, like mine, let's think of our fondest memories and share them with someone or journal them.

And, if you are a mother, know that what you give to the world by raising a child is an incredible contribution. I say this because I talk to many women who worry about not being able to be who they want to be in the business world and be the mother they want to be.....

I believe when we express our joy and love in either place, we are modeling for our children what true success is. When you give the world your unique gifts, that's all there is to do! Have a Happy Mother's Day!

Tech Tools & Trends Part 1

What are the trends to watch and tools you need to be effective in 2007 in technology?

Here are the four areas that you'll want to keep an eye on:

The Absolutely Necessary
The Smart Tools For Your Peak Effectiveness
The Changes That Web 2.0 Requires
The Consumer Driven Want

Let's look within each of these areas, starting with The Absolutely Necessary. Now, there are probably at least a dozen tech tools that fit here, however, instead of the obvious, that you are already using, my purpose is to add a few things you may not be using.

USB Drives-Sometimes called Thumbdrives. There are lots of uses for these.They make it very easy to transfer information from one computer to another. Over the past couple of years, the prices have dropped and the size of the memory has increased, so you can find more and more ways to get creative with them. Some ideas include carrying around your listing and buyer presentations, your virtual tours, giving the seller or buyer all of the contracts, reports, tours and other documents from their closing. Don't leave home without one!

Easy Backup-Wow! this should go without saying, but I would guess fewer than 25% of the people I speak with are not on top of this. If you are not backing up regularly, do not make another tech purchase until you get this handled. Like Thumbdrives, the size has increased and cost has come down. I recently bought a 500 GB Maxtor External Drive for about $150 at Costco. It backs up my computer every Monday night at 8. It came with a program and I had nothing complicated to do except plug it into the USB port and tell it when to back up. If your computer hasn't ever died, it will......BACKUP!!!!

The Small, Portable Storage- We are also seeing a lot of very small external drives that are somewhere between these two. In a recent ad, there was a 40 GB external drive that was 3" x 5" and cost $50. If you do not want to clog up your computer with lots of pictures, tours and tunes, these devices are the perfect way to store.

Permanent Email Address-Just a look at my newsletter mailing list tells me most of you are not using a permanent email address. For heavens sake, you are in business and hopefully not a YAHOO!!!!!There is a place for those impermanent addresses(but it isn't your business mail. Buy a domain name (or many of you already have one on your website and you are not using it for your mail). Point the domain name to your current mail host and you'll never have to change your address again! Start branding yourself-not your ISP. If you need any help with this, my friends at the Internet Crusade have the best mail programs available. For more information, click here and take a look at eMailPlus. You can also see if the domain name you want is available there.

Become an e-PRO I know many of you have taken this great course, but there are still the majority that hasn't. It is the one thing you can do that will give you the overview of the whole arena of what you need to know about technology, allow you to do it all online over a six month period and then wrap it all up in you designing your own technology plan. Talk about a way to save time and money...when you have a plan, you won't be tempted by programs and money vampires you don't need. There is a great, short video about it here, you can sign up here (and because you are on my list, you'll get a $25 discount using code 4477) or come see me on May 17 at 3 PM in DC at the NAR Tradeshow! This will put more money in your pocket this year!

Jan. 26, 2007 - Help or Hype????

There is a big self-help industry these days that suffers, sometimes from selling and catering to people who are looking for the answer. Some programs and information is useful and some is just a scam.

In my weekly, Tuesday Tips Newsletter and other posts, I've recommended the movie on the Law of Attraction www.TheSecret.tv

Recently, one of my readers sent me an email that I thought was worth sharing. I have asked Martin's permission to share our exchange because I'd like to hear what you think.

Hi Joeann,

Just a quick comment to let you know I enjoy getting your email newsletters periodically. However, I am compelled to write you about something I noticed in the recent issue- your suggestion that agents watch the movie 'The Secret'.

I have seen this movie twice in the last 6 weeks; it's been all the rage among a few of the agents in my office. I gotta' tell ya' what I think: it's all hype! For one thing, the idea that people create their own reality by the thoughts emanating from their minds has been around for a couple thousand years; so in this sense The Secret is not teaching anything new.
[Joeann Fossland, Master Certified Coach] I'd agree with you here and this is certainly something that the film documents.

I think anyone who watches this movie needs to be somewhat suspicious and wary of the message, because if one is in such dire straits that they need to fall for this mumbo-jumbo philosophy in order to make their life work, or in order to sell more houses, one will be extraordinarily disappointed when it becomes clear that you can't instantly materialize your reality by thinking happy thoughts.

[Joeann Fossland, Master Certified Coach] I really agree with you on this, and think there is a misunderstanding of what it actually takes to change what one attracts. The shift I like seeing is when people are able to not feel they are in dire straits, but rather can back up and notice what they have around them that can can appreciate and be grateful for, there seems to be an internal relaxation that will have more show up. I can not explain it, but have seen it with my own life and with people I work with. Much different than just thinking happy thoughts, which my friend, trainer, Darryl Davis says is like putting whip crème on dog doo doo :>)

One of the problems I have with the movie is that it doesn't tackle the subject that everyone else on the planet has the same ability to influence their personal realities that you do, and that, in the process of living our lives, some of these 'intentions' are bound to clash with my intentions.
[Joeann Fossland, Master Certified Coach] Yes, this is interesting. Something I'd love to hear other's thoughts on. My own experience with this is only that the things I have focused on creating or manifesting have rarely been something that is in opposition with the general good, and, as such, doesn't seem to have the opposing energy. Though, in a broader sense, like world peace...certainly it is an interesting question to ponder

The older I get, the more irritated by the self-help industry I become, and the more annoyed I get at the way otherwise intelligent people, many of them my fellow real estate agents, get suckered into this stuff. I've been there, so I know.
[Joeann Fossland, Master Certified Coach] There are certainly a lot of choices and I agree that there are those who will take advantage of others wish to have a quick fix.

My personal recommendation to anyone who asks is- stay away from The Secret.
[Joeann Fossland, Master Certified Coach] I see the movie, not as a quick fix, but, rather, as a beginning inquiry for people looking at how they can be more responsible to create in their lives what they want rather than being at the mercy or circumstances. Guess we differ here. I do appreciate your comments, because I would much rather have someone thoughtfully disagree with me than not be thinking about it at all!!! Warm Regards, Joeann

So, there, you have it...hype? or help? What do you think about The Law of attraction?

Best Regards,

We do not choose our historical epoch, the country of our birth, or the immediate circumstances of our upbringings We do not, most of us, choose to die. Nor do we choose the time and conditions of our death. But within this realm of choicelessness, we do choose how we live" Joseph Epstein
