Monday Morning Motivation.........
In this business it takes time to be really good – and by that time you are obsolete.
~ Cher ~
There have been times, as I go through each day that I have wondered how long it takes to be really, really good in this business. The one thing that I have come to understand is, it takes a lot of time invested in my own growth and development to be really good.
If I would be given the choice I would take really good over being obsolete. I don’t like the thought of being of no use to anyone.
Stop and think about some of the old brands that are no longer around. Could it be that they became obsolete because they didn’t stay in touch or keep up with changing wants, needs and trends?
With the continual changes that our profession will see not only now but in the future it will pay to continue to grow and develop. I’m not getting any younger ya know.

Don, great post! With things changing constantly, its hard but best to keep up!
Good morning Scott,
It is a hard thing to do but if we want to stay on top of our game we have to work at not becoming obsolete.
Good morning, Don. Great MMM...
Don, Great post to think about this Monday morning. I am constantly trying to stay up on my business. We are going to the Broker SuperCharge this week with RE/MAX and I am ready!!
Thanks for the motivation!
Good Morning Don
Thanks for the post and information. Have a great day.
Hi Don - 38 years in the business and I take up blogging. Who would have thought?
We have a constantly changing career choice and it is really critical to be able to scramble and stay with current trends.
Hi Don! I don't want to be obsolete either......I think we hang in a good place to ensure that doesn't ever happen to us.
Thanks for the puch Don, but, the way I have felt the last couple days, I think I need more of a boot.
Don - does this mean I'm gonna have to learn how to use a computer?
Don...it is hard sometimes to keep up with all the new technology...but one needs to keep up so as not to be obsolete!
Don,
What a great (and scary) quote!
I included this post in Last Week's Favorites. Good job!
Don ~ I think the quote strikes a chord of reality with all of us on many levels.
Hi Don, Interesting post/quote and comment thread. I guess I'm going with the really good stuff and hope I have the good sense to stay current.
Love the quote... good thing I'm a newbie later in life. That way I won't be obsolete until I'm retired.... LOL
