Remaining positive is a requirement at Florida Future Realty, Inc.
Sometimes don’t we all want to RANT about something? I know I have moments each week where I just want to YELL.
But, what good comes from that? Taking yourself down to a negative thought process? Stress on the mind & body. Outward negative energy. None of that is beneficial.
I read a lot of blogs & many are rants. Rants about professionalism, rants about lockboxes, showing appointments, rude agents, commissions, unrealistic customers and so much more.
What I wonder though is the following: How do you feel after writing that blog? Great? Because misery loves company? Or do you continue to feel worse filling your mind with all of the negative?
Now what about when you write a blog about something positive? You had a new potential customer call you, you helped a first time homebuyer find the perfect house, you donated your time or money to a charity, the list goes on. The comments are ALL positive on your blog. Your mind & spirit fills up with more positive energy.
The cycle continues.
While we have to be able to face & resolve potential negative conditions, why not consider ways to improve, resolve or discontinue the negative? Combat with the positive. Only focus on the positive?
Just my disclaimer: I stray off as well, even though I know that life is much more productive, fun & enjoyable when I’m positive. We all forget sometimes. I don’t know ANYONE who is positive 100% of the time. If they are, it might be fake.
But take a moment to think before your next rant. Consider revising your rant to include a solution or a positive spin.
Heck, you might leave with a positive vibe & you might actually solve a problem in the meantime.
Try for the next week to only read or comment on positive blogs & only write positive blogs. See how you feel at the end of the week.
That’s what I am asking of myself & my team for the next week. Want to join in?
P.S. For the non-real estate or non-blogging folks, try this with your conversations – avoid the negative ones & only speak about the positive –just for a week – you can handle it.

Not only is this great advice but Susan lives this way. I am an agent at Florida Future and many times I bring in something from the media that sounds like bad news. After a few minutes of chat with Susan, she puts a positive twist on the news (also give me a blog topic, grin). It's a great pleasure to work in such a positive environment.
Thanks for 'revitalizing' this post Mike. Great reminder for us all!
