As Your Mortgage Consultants for Life at YourMortgageGuyForLife.com,
we have teamed with, on purpose intent, alliances that help us provide the fullest of services for you. For example, have you seen an interesting home and wondered about the price?No need to wonder , and no need to call a high-pressure sales agent who will just make you feel obligated. The agents we align with are not the high pressure variety and our relationships with them make it possible for us to get the information on that home for you, for free and with no-obligation. Then, if you want to see the home, we can refer you to one of our Realtor friends that we know have a track record of happy clients.
Don’t keep us a secret! (:
Sincerely,
Brad Lynch &

How To Escape From The “Always More” Mind
You may know someone who skitters from one task to another, never enjoying an accomplishment before moving on to the next thing to be accomplished or mastered. And what does get done is never enough. In The Heroine’s Journey by Maureen Murdock, this is called “The myth of never being enough.” When you’re stuck in this mindset, you’re never satisfied with what you do, because something deep inside yourself tells you, “It’s not enough.” You’re always thinking ahead. You agree that what you’re engaged in currently is not enough. If you’re gardening, you feel you should be working on your report, and if you’re working on your report, you feel you should be gardening. Murdock recommends this exercise for overcoming this tyrannical way of thinking. Take a piece of paper and divide it into three columns. In the first column write, “I planted daisies.” In the second column write, “I am satisfied.” In the third column write, “And that’s enough!” Though it’s a simple exercise, Murdock says that if you practice it whenever you catch yourself being a self-critical, unsatisfied tyrant, that feeling of “not enough” will gradually disappear from your mind.
Write It/$ave it!!
Are you spending more money than you need to? It’s a nagging worry, especially these days. Fortunately, you don’t need an advanced degree in finance and accounting to analyze your spending. Try this: Keep track of your spending for one week. Just one week – longer, and you’ll probably get too busy. But you can hold onto your receipts and add them up for seven days. At the end of the week, separate and categorize your expenses (use a spreadsheet if that helps you visualize better). You’ll see what you’re spending your money on, and chances are you’ll find at least a few areas where you can cut back.
