Happy Medium

Just like the story of Goldilocks and the three bears, we are always at our best with the happy medium. Nobody wants the steaming hot porridge or the stone cold porridge, the not too hot or not too cold one is perfect. The best athletes are the ones who are stoic meaning their outlook does not change whether they are winning or loosing. This helps them stay composed and focus on what they need to do in order to succeed.

It was this attitude and consistent performance that just led to Damian Warner to take the gold for Canada in the Decathlon. It’s naive to think that one must with all 10 events to capture the gold. You just need to be consistently toward the top of the field in each event to capture the gold, the same with the recent CrossFit Games where the new winner didn’t win any of the events but was consistently near the top to enable him to win.

Be consistent and persistent and almost any goal becomes manageable. For example, yes this is a very hot real estate market and to be able to enter it you need good credit and a down payment. Both of which can be achieved with time and a plan. Don’t sell yourself short as this is possible as I see it almost every day.

Today I am thankful for the sound of the rain in the early morning, clients and vendors who realize that good things take time specially in this market and learning more about my lending partners with each conversation as at the end of the day we are just people looking to help each other.

“Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren’t used to an environment where excellence is expected.” Steve Jobs
