“Stop putting it off! Procrastination breeds guilt, guilt breeds depression, and depression breeds failure.”

I had probably seven agents by the time I became a legitimate real estate broker.

Rent a wide-angle lens and good lighting, get rid of your clutter and post at least eight great photos to win the beauty contest.

I’m never in control of my time during the workday.

My husband had a very strong identity and was successful in his life. Thank God for that. There’s no way I can control him. I wouldn’t stay married to him if I felt I could. I can readily take my business personality into the home. But he forces me to be a partner rather than the boss.

Figure out what past efforts amounted to nothing and label them your “not to do” list. Post the list where you’ll see it.

When you’re in business, if you have some sort of gimmick it’s a huge advantage.

I was a hot-dog stand lady, I was an orphan housemother, I was a waitress 3 or 4 times. All of those jobs did not have good bosses. They basically told you what to do, when to do and when to hop. And I just didn’t like that very much.

The most effective way to build a brand is not by spending millions in advertising, but by finding a clever way to keep your name in the press.

The power of publicity is more important than advertising.

Your business is a part of yourself. Should it be? Who knows, but it sure feels that way. You can never really leave it.

The biggest challenge in business is not the competition, it’s what goes on inside your own head

Insecurity is a wonderful motivator.

A funny thing happens in real estate. When it comes back, it comes back up like gangbusters.

You steal the limelight, you steal the market share

Always choose attitude over experience. Always.

I have found, whether you have a tiny business or a big business, if you don’t jump on something right away, it’s like a bird flying by-it flies off.

Guilt is a gift from Allah warning you that what you are doing is violating your soul.

If only I wasn’t an atheist, I could get away with anything. You’d just ask for forgiveness and then you’d be forgiven. It sounds much better than having to live with guilt.

When we wallow in guilt, remorse, and shame over real or imagined sins of the past, we are disdaining God’s gift of grace.

Most of us have spent our lives caught up in plans, expectations, ambitions for the future; in regrets, guilt or shame about the past. To come into the present is to stop the war.

I know my truths. I know exactly why I am the way I am and I’m secure with it. There’s not a single soul that can ever shame or guilt trip me into making me feel and think otherwise.

My vengeance is my guilt.

To execute a man we don’t need proof of his guilt. We only need proof that it’s necessary to execute him. It’s that simple.

Don’t replace your guilt with hate, replace it with love.
