Blog #49

I have never been very clear on what happens to a post when I leave it. Sometimes I will go back later and look to see if it got posted and won't be able to find it. For example, today, after watching Dean's blog, I left a post which was a message plus one cool thing about me that he said to do as soon as we finished watching the blog. I haven't been able to find it and want to know if you can help me understand whatever it is that I'm missing. Thank you very much. Terry

One thing

Regina's picture

Great blog. I think it is very important to remember that we aren't just what others think we are. I believe there are always positives about everyone and we all have cool things we can cite about ourselves.

One cool thing about me is I try to see how what I do can benefit at least one other person.

Blog #49 plus one cool thing

westerwayne's picture

Thanks Dean for always being here with a smile at the start of each week. We know that as sure as Monday will come, so will Dean be here with a message for us. It is the highlight of my week to see your blog because I know it will be inspirational and positive. I know you mentioned it at the EDGE event but we can only imagine how many things you must be involved with every day, that require your attention. Even so, when you film the blog, you are able to shift your focus to all of us out here, eagerly awaiting your message. It comes across as if there's no other place you'd rather be, which is uplifting to all of us. I actually think this is something cool about you.

One cool thing about me for now- I am an excellent father to my children: 1 boy, who died in a car wreck at the age of 26, and 3 grown girls, ages 44, 30 and 26. I'm also proud to be a grandfather to 6 children, ages 5 to 12.

THANKS AGAIN DEAN!

My Grandmother, who died in 1963, used to tell me that adversity builds character, and I can certainly attest to that.
2. I am a very spiritual person, I know from whom all blessings flow.
3. I get great satisfaction from being able to provide moral, spiritual and financial support for my family.
4. I love spending time with my wife everyday.
5. I enjoy learning new things.
6. I have a good sense of humor.
7. I have a strong desire to learn all I can about Real Estate Investing to ease financial burdens during my retirement and to leave more for my family.
8. I am a very humble person.
9. I am able to avoid becoming upset by little things that happen from day to day. I practice the belief that every day should have time in it set aside for laughter.
10. I have great expectations of myself from Real Estate Investing.

Cool thing about me

As a Business Vocational Teacher, I have placed many students - both high school and adults in on the job training and permanent jobs. I have assisted them in writing resumes and written many letters of recommendation. This has enabled many of them to get off of welfare. I had to laugh outloud Dean when you said we are "cool" because we are members of the DG family. That was a superb statement. Thanks for the positive reinforcement. I have read two of your books from cover to cover and then some. When I make up my mind to do something I will do it. Looking forward to making additional income from Real Estate Investing. And oh by the way, Indiana Joe - congratulations again on your many contributions to this site.

1 of 10

Hmmmmmm- finding 10 will take some time, but Dean has assured me they are there.

I start with # one - that I am an awesome Mom as I have an awesome son! That is my proof!

Hi All:

I read the posts for inspiration because since May I've been trying to put Dean's principles to work with no success.

Dean says these strategies wil work ANYWHERE, so why don't I ever see a success story in San Diego!?!

Come on, San Diego DG students, share your success with us!

I listenwd to Chad from CA's audio, but he never says where in CA he is & it's a big state.

IF THIS REALLY WORKS ANYWHERE, THERE MUST BE SAN DIEGO SUCCESS.

Please post your stories!

Jan
