A little history...

Since 1981, the Jubilee of Trees has raised more than $2 million dollars for neonatal healthcare for babies as well as mothers-to-be and also to fund the Life Flight helicopter at Dixie Regional Medical Center in St. George, Utah. For many, this means the difference between life and death.

Motivational Monday: I’m Off Chasing Rainbows Again!

Motivational Monday: I’m Off Chasing Rainbows Again!

On our way into St. George the other morning, my mind already on the full day in front of me, I barely noticed the sun trying to break through the dark, ominous clouds. My son Spensyr suddenly said, "Mom, do you see that rainbow?"

I looked to the right side near the red cliffs and was amazed to see a FULL RAINBOW! And a double rainbow is starting just above the left side if you look closely.

I-have-been-known-to-chase-rainbows! I quickly pulled the car over, got out and proceeded to take a series of pictures that I hoped to piece together later to show everyone!

I hope I represented this unexpected beauty to its fullest potential!

Thank you Spensyr for opening my eyes to the wonders and beauty of Mother Nature at work and for getting me out of ‘work ahead mode' and instead, putting me back in the ‘here and now'! You are very much appreciated!

Thankful Thursdays: Smiles everyone!

I love waking up to still see flowers blooming around my house. I thought I'd be fun to put smiles on the flowers faces because that is how I feel when I see them. Every year, I take the seeds from these flowers and put then in a bag and when Spring comes, I throw them in our flower garden and come Summer, I am rewarded!

Happy Thursday everyone!

Going it alone? Partner Up!

Tired of going it alone? Partner Up!Have you given any thought to joining efforts with another person or several people to form a team?

There are many things that should be considered before making the commitment:

  • Trust: This has to be established before making any decision to go forward as partners. You must trust!
  • Likeminded goals: Be sure your goals are closed matched. Otherwise the partnership will be unbalanced.
  • Work ethic: Your partner should share the same work standard that you possess and is willing to push to gain measureable results.
  • Being a teamplayer: Make sure the people you invite into your team are willing to work with others in order to achieve a positive outcome. Me, me, me will not work!
  • Temperament: As a team, your partner's ability to resolve problems with patience, avoiding outbursts of anger is necessary for team harmony. Vent frustrations in private.

There are many advantages to teaming up, such as:

  • Someone is always available. If one person is out of town, the other takes over the business to ensure everything continues to get done and deadlines are met.
  • Combining of talents. Say, if a person has strong marketing / advertising skills, then that is a professional advantage to a team. If someone has excellent spoken skills, then that also contributes to make the team stronger by improving listing appointments.
  • More clients. By utilizing each others skills and becoming a driving force, more business will come your way and you will get more referrals. That results in more sales!

This has been my experience with my team. I have to say I am very lucky that I have found someone who possesses some great qualities!

Becoming part of a team may be a great alternative to going it alone! Give it some thought!
