Getting Excited About The Future

Well, here we go again. Just got out of a great office meeting. It focused on getting our business plans prepared for 2010. Imagine, already a decade has passed since Y2K! I remember that as New Year's 2000 approached, myself and my husband Scott, and my two stepsons Nick & Kyle were standing together on the roof of the Pasadena Police Department headquarters. Scott was working there at the time, and when New Year's comes around, everyone at PPD works.

So we prepared to welcome in the new millenium together (my kid's were with their dad). The news sources at the time were predicting that all computers would crash, the bank vault doors would not open, computers in cars would cease to function, and the end of the world was going to occur! So as we held hands and counted down, we were prepared to be surprised and panicked. What did happen? There was a great display of fireworks over Old Pasadena, a lot of shouting and hugging and....................nothing. Not one prediction from the "experts" came to pass.

It's been a great decade in real estate with a lot of ups and downs. How will I prepare for the next decade? I will continue to put my faith in God and prepare to be surprised.
