This past week we had our quarterly combined sales meeting and it is always so impressive to be “Led By Example”.  Bear Realty is fortunate to have a management team that possess not only years of experience but also the mindset that continuous learning and adapting to the new marketplace is a welcomed necessity. 

From that meeting, our Chairman, Mr. Steve Mills, CCIM, shared a quote from Western University that I feel is worth repeating.  It is a concept that goes far beyond our professional life and delves deep into our personal mission, vision and value systems.

The following article was written by Mr. Joe Taylor and published in the Western News.   “You can’t be a champion on game day unless you’re trying to be a champion every day” and “controlling your dash.”  “That simply means a person has four numbers that precede him – the year he was born – and, at some point, there’s going to be four more numbers that will follow those, which represent his expiration.  But between those two numbers there is always a dash, and that’s really all we have control over, “.  In other words, it is what you do with that time in between that’s important.

If we are living our lives in such a manner that we realize that our personal and our professional interactions leave a large footprint in the lives of others – we can take control, whether we are in real estate or any industry to control our own level of success.

I am always impressed with the agents at Bear Realty that continue to have repeat clients.  Our real estate agents are the number one reason that we are number one in our Kenosha County Market.  You get out of life what you put into it and I am proud to say that I am surrounded by those types of Kenosha County agents that are taking proactive steps to “Control Their Dash”!
