Busy Friday - Productive?

It's been a busy Friday. Every day I ask myself, has it been productive? I can only hope and trust my instincts. As my friends remind me, it takes about 18 months to develop a customer base in this business. I'm doing a lot of fertilizing these days and hoping that this Spring's fields will be full. At the same time, the "magical thinking" me wishes I would just show up with the phone ringing off the hook and the blog comments a flying. I'm dreaming big and reminding myself that every "no" is one step closer to a "yes." My successes today: 1.) I connected with friends/former colleagues from Best Buy; 2.) I took advantage of the flexibility that my schedule allows to get some errands done; 3.) We sold a house and made a 25% return on investment - good even considering that the real estate market is in the dumps; 4.) helped a client with a solution to getting the care she needs and 5.) following up with potential clients. Have you taken the time to reflect on your successes today? this week? this month? this year? When you're a high achiever, you owe it to yourself to recognize where you've been and help it fuel you toward even more success. Enjoy the day!
