Advantage Thinking: Spring Cleaning

Whether you tackle the clutter or the rolodex, you'll find throwing out the old that isn't serving you or making your life better opens up some space for the new, good stuff to come in.

My challenge for you is to fill 8-12 large green garbage bags with stuff that you don't need, don't like, doesn't fit, don't need and doesn't represent who you are today. You may even save your children a lot of time by getting rid of all that stuff that they'll have to go through when you die......Give away what is reusable (and realize you are putting energy back into the mix to return to you). Throw out what isn't. There is a magic in clearing space: it creates more time. Try it-you'll see

Next go through your databases and clear out the people you don't like, the ones that don't fit, etc. In other words, stop playing real estate by the numbers and make your marketing budget lighter....stop sending to people who you do not have a strong relationship with or who wouldn't refer to you.

Get rid also of the listings that are never going to sell that are costing you money to service. And the high maintenance clients who drain your energy. Yes....there are others out there, but you won't attract them if all your time is spent with the energy drainers

Whew....doesn't that feel good? Now, it's time to let the seeds that have been planting and that have been germinating begin to peek up through the earth and turn into spring flowers!
