WOW, it’s that time of year again. July 2nd Ken and I are headed north to
Remember my favorite Alaskan
song:
Don’t worry. I’m back on July 20th and will be ready for another year of phenomenal
growth - October 1st will be here quickly and we all know there are
big changes in store for the residential real estate industry.
An annual
break has taught me a lot. I am proactively
able to formulate business ideas and develop innovative plans and goals to
reach our objectives. I simply think smarter and dream bigger. Taking a leadership
break enables me to really look at our accomplishments and where we want to
go/grow next.
Time has
taught me to always follow a method and here’s one tool I use straight out of the Stephen
Covey book, Seven Habits of Highly Effective People.
I spend time
DREAMING big - where will we as a staff be over the next 6-12-24-36
months. What will five years from now
look like? What is the legacy I am
leaving?
What are the
BIG ROCKS? Milestones, how are they
measured? Did last year work? Who needs to grow, in what ways, what do we
need to do in order to get there?
Who is going
to hold me accountable?
Yes, this is
an annual adventure for me. It is
relaxing, it’s challenging, it’s rewarding but most of all IT IS FUN!
So once
again, it’s north to Alaska
We have a
special treat this year. Our granddaughter, Kaylee and Josh are getting married. There will be a new roof to install on the
Palmer home (not sure any of you knew I can drive nails) and of course there
will be fishing for Ken. Ken thinks I can
learn to fly fish.
Ok, here’s
what I already know. Our giving traditions at Park Plaza
Are YOU ready? The staff is going to enjoy my time away, you need to enjoy it as well
‘cause when I get back we’re all going and growing again!
And Happy Fourth of July!
And Happy Fourth of July!
