Friday.  Today is a day to talk about obstacles.  I was supposed to have a closing today and had a title check done a few months ago.  Nothing stood out as being an issue.The attorney doing the closing today sends me a second mortgage on the property that didn't appear in the check.  Now, my enti...

Thursday.  Stepping out of our comfort zone to get something done or to accomplish something is, at many times very difficult.I know this firsthand right now, as I am embarking on doing something that makes me a uncomfortable.  I know it has to get done and I've spent gobs of money on someone tha...

Wednesday.  Did you know that diamonds started out in the earth as regular coal or carbon atoms?  Intense pressure and heat cause some of this coal or carbon atoms to crystalize and become a diamond.Ideas are very much like that, when the heat of passion is mixed with the intesity of your own pre...

Monday.  Time to start our week off and get things going.  Today is a day to get things done (not that every week shouldn't be that way.). If you've been holding off on doing certain things, make today a special day for you.  Stop waiting around for the time to be right.  It usually never is."The...
