Bloom Where You Are Planted

This is the statement I read: “Bloom where you are planted.”

There are many choices you get to make in life, and a whole lot more you don’t get to choose.

The plant in this picture did not get to choose where it was planted…but it sure made the best out of it, and is apparently THRIVING where nobody would have reasoned it could!

You are planted…you are in North Atlanta…you are in Real Estate…whether you like it or not, you are planted!

Now, what are you going to do about it?

Think about our smart, and tougher-than-nails plant.

Are you a Knower or a Learner? This is going to be the question that when answered will determine who will be blooming, and who will not stand a chance in 2009.

The Knower would assume that there is no logical way that a plant could exist in such a dry, sloped, rocky area…they would not adapt, and would fade away, never seeing a chance, so why try?

The Learner (our little plant friend) researched with passion, and found the one spot that could possibly work…they owned the area, and had determination to make it the absolute best they could…they paid no attention to the knower and the negative remarks…

Do you see any other plants standing tall around our friend?

You will not be able to get me down about the market conditions, and what the future may hold…I know a lot in the game of real estate, but I constantly seek ways to improve my game today and for the challenges that are ahead…I AM planted…I AM a leaner…I AM blooming…Right here in the Real Estate Arena of North Atlanta!
