The Other 10%

Why is it that sometimes I have so much energy and excitement that I can get anything done and other times.....pffffft....deflated?

I have found myself in a cycle that needs instant gratification and that has lately led me to be on Facebook more than blogging.  Yet, I really enjoy these conversations with you.  It's like talking to a therapist without paying any money.  And that is something we all need, right?

So right now I am working on realtor partnerships, trying to obtain some new staging jobs and working on a new venture - Cookie Lee jewelry.  I am doing all of this because my son is starting college in the fall and it's not inexpensive to attend college these days.  Marketing is a focal point, realtor visits, pushing to get meetings or appointments and then following up in a timely basis.

I don't know that I realized how much work goes into marketing yourself and your business.  Why?  I'm not sure that you can separate the two items - if it's your business then you are marketing yourself as well.  You have to present an certain image, you need to be confident and perceived as a go-getter. 

So I do my best to be positive, and I succeed about 90% of the time. I think that pretty darned good.

And the other 10%?  That's why I write this blog.
