The Law Of Attraction: Can It Have An Impact On Your Real Estate Business?
May 6, 2009 by Greg Saunders
Greetings Peachtree City and friends that have followed my blog. Over the last several months I noticed that my sites were getting tons of hits from all over the country as thousands of folks were reading my blogs. (I know because each of my sites has analytics to track visitors) Anyway, if you have read one of my posts you pretty much know that this is definitely not your A-typical real estate blog.
Each post was the result of extensive research, years of study, and personal experiences. These experiences in both the public and private sectors proved to be real “revelations” about the inner working and the behind the scenes activities of our systems related to finances, government, education and the economy.
The results of my knowledge and experience developed into a real passion to enlighten folks by providing information that empowers and provokes the need to think, question, and qualify what we have been led to believe and accept as factual. The topics have been current, the writing poignant, and my perspective and analogies….well let’s just say I’ve received comments ranging from brilliant to folks who thought I may be blogging from a drug induced state.
Anyway, during one of my monthly business check-ups, a bell went off in my head! With all the traffic on my site I felt that my business should be progressing a might bit better than it has. As I normally do, I discuss my business with my brokers and several confidants and mentors who I can always count on to give me pretty honest feedback. My initial conclusion was that I could be farming the wrong area and/or maybe I was being excluded due to a number of what I thought were reasonably rational theories. There I sat late one night pondering over the empirical data when my wife walked into my office. Of course, I showed her the numbers and asked what she thought. Expecting at that point late in the evening to get a petty nonchalant response like, “well…you never listen to me anyway,” I got the most profound answer. “Hun….I know your articles are really great but maybe it’s the subject matter. You write so much on all the gloom & doom in the world.”
Stunned, her words started resonating in my head! Okay…maybe my wife (Kaye) won’t read this one but…I’ll have to admit just maybe she was right….again! Doggonit! Could the Law of Attraction actually apply to my success in business endeavors too? Could it be that my consciousness has absorbed all the negativity from all
the doomologist I embraced daily from CNN, CNBC, Fox News and the rest of the sarcastic, melodramatic, overly negative bearers of the gloom & doom theory? Was I then proselytizing the same victimization? Had I become self-absorbed in the gloom and doom mentality to the point that I was becoming a cynic and allowed feelings of depression to infiltrate my attitude on a daily basis? Even worst, could it be that my focus on scaricity was attracting what I was promulgating and then manifesting what I was focusing on….Lack of?
Was I freekin out? Just then the shock made me realized something rather ingenious…I had a choice in the matter. Not only that, I could utilize the Law of Attraction to create what I wanted for my business simply by focusing in on abundance and opportunities. Believe it or not and despite the economy there are some very good things happening in our industry. All we have to do is bypass the minutia and all the self-limiting beliefs and and find a way to turn them into ideas, visions, and successes. I’ll have to admit that the brokers in my office have made every effort to overcome all the negative energy by finding ways to help make us successful despite the economy. Thanks Kristen Anclien Jones and Megan Pafford Wyatt and all the great agents and staff at our office for insuring that it remained a safe haven full of promise as well as a conduit for continual success.
Folks, there is probably nothing you can do to change market conditions but you can change your attitude!![]()
Change the television channel, change your friends, change your conversation, change your focus, change your attitude…and in doing so change the outcome of your life. Just in case you didn’t know there were more millionaires created during the depression than in any other time in history. If there was ever a good time to utilize the Law of Attraction….its now! Remember, within every adversity is an equal or greater benefit.
Oh I know there are you naysayers….just reminds me of something I heard growing up. “Those convinced against their will are of the same opinion still!” Well, I guess they still gotta sell newspaper, right?
Hmmmm… but it seems like gloom and doom isn’t even selling newspapers too well these day either!
Much success to you whatever your business or personal endeavor!!!
