Mind Tricks

As the title of the blog states, this is a daily musing, and though this is a self-inflicted trauma the pressure to perform is undeniable, and to be honest, I am not sure I thought this through. How is it possible to be witty yet insightful while keeping true to our theme of Metro DC real estate? Yet, changing the title now would be showing a lack of conviction, don’t you think?

Alas, we will discover together if I am up to such a challenge.

So, here is some exciting news: Richard Urban and his minion of 6 have officially joined the office. He has moved here from Long and Foster where he consistently performed as the top-iest of top producers.

BUT, that's not why I wanted him to join this office.

Little did you know, he is a gifted botanist, and as anyone who knows me can tell you, I have a black thumb of death - having killed every plant I have ever owned (And since on my first day Hal Maxwell, the grand Pooh-Bah of Coldwell Banker, sent me a plant, I have a vested interest in making sure I keep the thing breathing! Richard has promised to be my Yoda of all things green and living, so I am encouraged that I cannot only succeed on my quest, but persevere and show all that, YES, I too, can have a plant).

On another note, we here at Coldwell Banker Chevy Chase continue to grow! We now have 15 new faces calling 5028 home. Plus we have sponsored 3 more Realtors to-be for school in our education center upstairs. And, they all want to join the office as soon as they become licensed. As the Romans say, that's just "NVTS - nuts!"

What's the secret, you ask? Why are so many successful and new agents joining our office?

The answer is simple; I have used a Jedi mind trick on all of them! or as a classic line from a classic movie states, "If you build it, they will come."

So as I conclude my second blog entry ever, I will continue my vow to keep you updated on my plant, on the drapes (see yesterday), and continue my Jedi mind trick training - because only then, will we truly be called master.

P.S. The light saber will be on display in the lobby!

Now that you have told me about your Jedi mind tricks, I will be careful how I answer your questions - always wondering if the answer is mine or yours planted in my subconscious!

Welcome to your new associates! They've picked a great company to work for even if they were Jedi mind-tricked into doing so. :)

If you need any help with that plant you can bring it over to the Region 2-3 Rainforest in my office. It may need friends to grow with.
