Getting involved in your community really pays off! I worked with my local Association and it helped me to close a two million dollar deal. Because, I helped to educate them on the land development process. See you at the closing table in 2009.
Thanks Candy

I agree and have implemented that philosophy into 2009. For years I gave as a Platinum Sponsor for Hospice of the Valley ($5,000 cost). This year there was no way I could swing it so I decided to jump in and chair the silent auction. It has given me more gratification and I have only been to two meeting so far!

Lisa,

This is one of the most uplifting articles I’ve read in a long time. Wow! Thanks for the encouragement!

Lisa – In every city across America, there is a need. Finding one which you believe in and can give to “unselfishly”, not only helps the community, but more importantly, helps us.

Good advice, we need to get off our computers and get involved with our boards and associations.

Lisa, I couldn’t agree with you more. Creating a running club and co-chairing a local festival has proved invaluable. I’ve met and worked with people in my own community I probably never would have known if I hadn’t gotten involved.

Doing something you love, spreading the passion, expanding ones personal sphere, and influencing change is gratifying.
