 Putting thoughts on paper and it starts with real estate.
Here I am about to sell my property, hopefully; and one thing that I have learned is that utilizing a decorator or stager could potentially make a huge difference! And don't forget a new coat of paint!.
For sale by owner has its upsides and downsides; significantly downsides from what I can tell. One of my thoughts was I was going to offer a 4% commission to the buyer's agent and see if I could get a bunch of buyer agents involved. The only thing that happened is that real estate agents called me nonstop asking for the listing, so I got fed up with it, and I called my realtor to have her take a look at that property. She helped humble me a little bit, and we'll see if the pricing is OK. Ideally, we can sell in this relatively tight market. Believe it or not, Colorado, for the higher-end home is really tough! So we're going to see what we can do about staging it in today my realtor paid for two hours of a stager.  It has been incredible I worked some today on paint, and a new coat of paint is going a long way. Employing rooms to show bigger space more utilization more ability to use the space things that my wife mentioned we may want to utilize in our next home before staging it for sale and instead using it to live.

The Psychology of Money: A Personal Insight

Recently, I had an experience that reshaped my understanding of the psychology of money. I took over a property management job where part of my payment came in physical cash, money previously directed to someone else for this task.  Most tenants paid digitally or by check, but one unit always paid in cash. Having that "management" fee/ maintenance fee tangible, in my hand, ignited a unique perspective. It wasn’t about the amount, but the form in which it arrived.  Sure, I could take a full-time job earning in excess of $10K a month. However, that wouldn’t necessarily change my life as it would only take more of my time, the one resource I can't regenerate.  Surprisingly, the extra $1K in cash monthly had a more significant impact, not because it was a windfall, but because it made me more mindful of my earnings. The physicality of cash and the process of earning it manually introduced a sense of value and respect for my work that was somewhat abstract before.  This p...

Elk Hunt - Shakespearean style

In Meeker's vale, where mountains touch the skies, An alfalfa field before us calmly lies. Two hundred fifty elk, a sight to glean, To move unseen a task, nigh unforeseen. Our guide named Hugh, and Father by my side, We hunker down, in quiet we abide. At last I spot him—five by five, the bull, Amidst his kin, the scene is nearly full. A hundred thirty-eight yards separates, My steady aim on destiny debates. For three long minutes, in my sight he stays, But cow elk guard him, blocking aim and gaze. I dare adjust—alert, they bark and flee, My chance arrives, as if by fate's decree. The cows disperse, the bull steps forth alone, My rifle speaks; its aim and end are known. Down falls the bull, as twilight fades from view, Amidst the field and mountains' varied hue. A tale to pass, from elder unto youth, Of patience, skill, and undying truth.

Off-Ball Coaching: The Unsung Hero of Teamwork in Sports and Business

Introduction We all admire the quarterback who throws the winning touchdown or the CEO who nails the game-changing deal. But what about the unsung heroes—the players or associates who operate "off-ball," setting the stage for that crucial moment of glory? In both sports and corporate settings, off-ball coaching is an essential but often overlooked aspect of success. It's not just about the person with the ball (or in charge); it's about the invisible machinery of teamwork, communication, and leadership that makes the winning play possible. The Crucial Role of Off-Ball Communication in Sports Soccer: Anticipating and Planning In soccer, it's not just about the player who has the ball; it's also about the other ten players who are continuously positioning themselves, making runs, or calling out marks. They're planning two, three, or four steps ahead to ensure smooth execution. - **Takeaway**: Just as in business, anticipation and planning can streamline acti...
