Go out and Conquer the World

We met Dillaine, a long time friend of ours this past weekend. Dillaine had come down for the annual Toastmasters conference in Guyana...I just love her mindset. She says....When you wake up each morning, after brushing your teeth just go out and conquer the world.
This is what she does every single day. The other day she decided that she was going to invest in real estate. And she was going to invest in a posh area in Trinidad and Tobago.
Now everyone told her to give up for two specific reasons. One she is not a real estate agent and as such had no information as to what was for sale in the area. The second reason was that the area is a very expensive area and is considered to be exorbitant.
Dillaine took 5 days off from work, dressed up for the occassion and slipped on comfortable walking shoes.She went from house to house and by the end of the fourth day and 65 houses, she had purchased two properties for a quarter of the market price. How did she do it, you might ask? She told me...I was focused...I knocked on each door, I was pleasant, I was confident and I acted as if I expected it. The neighbours were pleasant..I told them that I was looking for property to rent, lease or buy...By the time I was done..I knew what was available, people who were ready to sell. They even pointed out those who had challenges and might be willing to sell. It was simply amazing she said... All the people who were willing to share information.
Folks..the morale of the story is ..never be afraid to ask.. stay focused, relentlessy pursue your dreams and never give up.
So wake up...brush your teeth and then go out to conquer the world
