Happy Valentine's Day. Did you set yourself up for sadness today? No one who can count one person as a friend should be sad on Valentine's Day. I think that many people set themselves up for a
depressing day by focusing on what isn't in their lives rather than what is. On this day of Love and Lovers you may forget that the other Love, the kind we feel for our friends and family is the stronger Love than that sometimes illusive romantic ideal we think we are missing. We can only be hurt if we obsess about what we don't have instead of celebrating what we do have.
Do we set ourselves up to experience bad things by focusing on the negative in other areas of our lives? Some of us do it occasionally. Some of us do it all the time.
In Real Estate it is hard to present a rosy picture of home ownership to a prospective buyer if all we talk about is how difficult this market is. It is difficult to be enthusiastic for a property if we don't focus on how great it could be. Oh I am not saying ignore the negatives, I am saying make sure you aren't avoiding the positives.

Just remember to look for the SUNSHINE through the clouds
and focus on that.
