“GOOD”—A SMART Website for the Week for 10/17/11

Happy SMART Day Everyone!

gallery 1317409629goodbooks1 150x150 GOOD—A SMART Website for the Week for 10/17/11     Many years ago when Thom and I first entered the real estate field we discovered a motivational speaker named Zig Ziglar.  Old even then, Zig was a guy that bounced around onstage and told stories about one thing or another all designed to get us off our butts and out there living our dreams.  Sure, some of it was pretty corny, but that was part of his charm.  And yes, some of the stories were good—really good.  So much so that even now, many years later, I remember Zig very well AND, I cherish a particular idea that he shared that is sure to be part of my life forever.

Happy SMART Day Everyone!

being thankful card 150x150 Monday’s Website of The Week 10/3/11—Thanks to Gary for Thx,thx,thx!A great big “thank you” to our friend and SMART Living 365 reader Gary for his recommendation of the thxthxthx.com website.   I’d read about it before but until Gary sent me the link, I never took the time actually check it out.  In case you don’t recall, each week we want to reach out across the web and share good and inspiring websites with one another and thanks to Gary this is a short, but very sweet website that helps keep things in perspective.  That’s right—thxthxthx is all about gratitude—and remembering how everything works together for good.

Monday 9/26/11—Website of the Week—TED.com

Happy SMART Day Everyone!

I’m taking a chance here that there are some of you who read SMART Living 365 who don’t already know about TED.com.  But if you don’t, then it is definitely time you did.  TED.com is mostly a website that posts videos of people who speak at TED conferences held annually around the world.  The very best of those talks—called Ted Talks—are condensed versions.  What is TED?  TED stands for Technology, Entertainment and Design.  But a better way to think of TED is explained on their website where it says they are, “Ideas worth spreading.  Or Riveting talks by remarkable people, free to the world.”  How SMART is that?      Continue reading

Monday’s SMART Website of the Week—Action For Happiness!

Happy SMART Day everyone!

A key part of SMART Living 365 is sharing—and because I find so much great information on the Internet, why not share some of the best resources I can find with all of you?  That’s why I am going to regularly—once a week at least—provide a link to other websites that are helping to increase the quality of my life, others lives, and make a difference on the planet.   In other words, I believe visiting these websites on a regular basis (just like this one!) can help you create a SMART Life 365.  Continue reading
