Loan Think

The Loan Expert

As a result of my ignorance my dog Buddie almost died this week. How? He has been eating the stalk of a palm plant on the back porch after it died from the winter freeze.

Why? I had not made the time to learn that some plants, especially palms, have toxins that will harm a dog's liver, etc. And I might add, Buddie was of no help; remember he can't read.

For two hours this week, our entire family was very saddened by what appeared to be the bad news. Fortunately, old Bud must be A.D.D. or something and never stood in one place long enough to eat enough of the stalk to kill him. I guess A.D.D is contagious because I certainly have it too.

My point: I really care about Buddie and my purpose is to read a book on 101 things dog owners should know so they don't kill their dog.

What is going to be your purpose to read and study to move your career, relationships, business, marketing, along?

Why don't we discipline ourselves to learn all that we need to know?The main reason is that no one ever calls you up and asks you: "Did you develop a new marketing plan today?" No. Instead the phone rings with "Hey, you've got to get some more business or we are going to go broke."

So, in a fit of reaction, you run out to try to find a loan the same way you have been doing it that hasn't been working very well and that caused the problem to begin with.

My advice: Purpose to make a change one book, one audio series and/or one seminar at a time.

A lot of information that has been very beneficial over the years is probably in your inbox right now. Look into The Mortgage Market Guide, Mortgage Coach and Dave Hershman, for example. These and many others mortgage trainers are a great place to start.

Consider this your call: Go do something to help yourself.
