Do You Know What I Do?
I like this picture.
It’s an orange fish, and I like orange.
I like the wide-eyed befuddled expression.
It’s the same look I have on my face as I write this in the middle
of the night.
I was Flickr surfing, looking for inspiration to write something amusing (I don’t do profound), or at least helpful.
Links and how-to stuff get a little stale. Not enough me in those.
Aha, I could tell you I am more than a techie real estate broker.
Did you know I teach real estate agents and other small business owners how to embrace technology? I’ve been speaking geek (with a Southern drawl) and sharing what I know for years.
Did you know I design websites?
Did you know I know stuff.
Okay, now you do.

Wish You Had a Personal Techie?
If you’ve known me any length of time, you know I have a passion for technology! I was a hands-on tech lover long before I launched my first website in 1994 and began a real estate career.
Over the years I’ve helped lots of folks get comfortable with technology and build a successful online presence.
Now, I’ve created a tech coaching service. Hands-on training, consultations, on-site tech support, web design – my team is ready to answer your questions, teach you new skills, or just get it done for you.
I think it was high time I did this, it just makes sense. It might be just what you need to give your business that extra boost you’ve been looking for… but without breaking the bank.
No need to “hype” it up. You know me by now.

A New Direction
INSPIRATION FOR TODAY:
A NEW DIRECTION!
So . . . you’ve done all those things the greatest minds have suggested – you’ve planned your life’s objectives and created a career/life/family path, and have no doubt where it will lead you. You’re on your own “Yellow Brick Road” to happiness and prosperity until . . . ZAP! . . . there appears a sign on the path that reads, “Road Closed.”
You peer past the sign to determine the road condition. It looks OK, so you veer around the sign and continue. The road turns to gravel, then dirt, then narrows to a walking path. You leave the car, and continue on foot. Soon your arms are scratched by briars, you begin to tire, and the path abruptly ends at a sheer 200′ cliff. Your trip is over. There are no more “yellow bricks” to follow. What now?
If you’ve ever come to the end of such a road in your life, you well know the sinking feeling that came over you. No matter how much you felt like giving up, the situation was no doubt resolved by creating a new road, a new path leading in an entirely different direction.
You may have had to hack at the briars, trim back the trees, and even bulldoze your way in a new direction. It may have taken time, with compass and hiking shoes, to blaze that new trail. It may have been exhausting work, but in the end you reached your destination.
You have two choices when faced with a roadblock. You can quit, or you can put your imagination to work finding an alternate route. In the words of Sir Winston Churchill “Never give up. Never give up.”
Make this a great week!
