Hello all,

“Golf Tournament”

I hope everyone knows I like to joke around and have a good time as much as the next guy. When it is of a serious nature I let you know, this is one of those times… RE/MAX’S main charity is the Children’s Miracle Network. Many offices due several events a year to raise money, some require or suggest that you donate out of each deal. We only due one event a year which I FULLY expect everyone to participate in. I understand not everyone plays golf, that is why we structured in way where everyone can participate. The flyer is attached so if you are a golfer or can get a group together your choices are obvious. If you are not a golfer you can participate by either. A) Coming to the dinner afterwards by yourself or with a quest. The cost is $40 per person, half of the money goes to the charity. There is also a raffle during the dinner so please bring a couple of extra bucks to buy raffle tickets. Very cheap way to spend some time with everyone out of the office for a good cause. B) If you are not a golfer or are unable to make it to the dinner you could be a sponsor for the tournament or make a donation… Checks are made out to “Charity Golf Tournament” and can be given to Carol, Charity or myself. Your participation is appreciated.

Enjoy the coffee,
Joe

EVER BEEN CRITICIZED?

If you've ever had a dream - you've also had critics. It seems they show up right on cue every time that special new dream begins to form. Critics come in the form of family members, employers, friends, and associates.

Interestingly, the only opinion worth listening to is your own. The opinions of others simply reflect their own limitations - and have nothing to do with the achievement of your dreams. Just imagine how shallow the world would be today if the following individuals had listened to their critics:

Arnold Schwarzenegger's family said, "How long will you go on training all day in a gymnasium and living in a dream world?"

Mary Kay Ash's attorney advised two weeks before her first store opening, "Liquidate the business right now and recoup whatever cash you can. If you don't, you'll end up penniless."

His teachers to Ray Charles: "You can't play the piano, and God knows you can't sing. You'd better learn how to weave chairs so you can support yourself."

What Diana Ross heard her teacher say when auditioning for a high school play: "You have a nice voice, but it's nothing special."

Have a dream? Live it, pursue it, and achieve it - with a passion
