This is my second winter in the real estate business and lately I am catching myself DRIFTING in my day to day activities. That fact that its cold outside and that my clients (especially my buyers) are not seeing the sense of urgency does not help the cause.

I decided today to partner up with someone in my office and see if he/she wants to be my "accountability partner". Someone I can take to breakfast/lunch or just meet at the office and talk about what I want to accomplish from now to the end of the year, and have that person hold me accountable to my goals.

Do any of you find yourself drifting? and if so what do you do to get out of that mode? Has it worked?

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.

We took this photograph in Wayne County, near Loa, Utah. I thought of the great Beatle Classic when we took this photograph:

will never disappear

I've seen that road before

I always leads me here

Just a quick update on the shops and restaurants opening for business in Daybreak's SoDa Row Village center.

Oopsie Daisy Children's Boutique - Now Open
Guy's Barber Shop - Now Open
Black Diamond Gymnastics - Now Open
San Gelato Café - November 1st 2009
Classic Cleaners - November 1st 2009
Tio's Mexican Restaurant - December 1st 2009
The Flower Shop - December 1st 2009
9 Salon and Day Spa - December 15th 2009
Wabi Sabi - December 30th 2009
Zion's Bank - Summer 2010

There was also supposed to be a bar opening in SoDa Row, but South Jordan put a block on that one (at least that is my understanding). It is not completely dead, but they do need to hook up with a restaurant before they can get the go ahead.

Mountain View Corridor

If you live on the west side of the Salt Lake Valley you will be interested to hear that the Mountain View Corridor has been given the go ahead.

Mountain View Corridor

For the first phase they have been allocated $500 million, which they will use to construct a two lane highway (two lanes either way), with a speed limit of 45 mph and signalized intersections. Initially the road will be constructed between 9000 south and Redwood Road in Salt Lake County and between 2100 north and I-15 in Utah County.

This may sound like a cop out, but the idea is that when further funding is available the intersections will be converted into interchanges, and additional lanes added to make it a fully fledged freeway.

I believe this is a good idea, as long as the additional funding does become available. The west side does not currently need a major freeway, but will do in the future. The way it has been planned provides a balance between current needs and available funds.

In addition to the normal traffic lanes there are also plans for dedicated transit lanes, where bus, street car or light rail could run. At the moment there are no firm plans for the exact type of transit to be used in these lanes.
