What Was That???

How many of you have immersed yourselves for a day or more in a workshop or seminar and then returned to the land of reality? That is; to life: family, job, responsibilities, etc. We all have. The reason I bring this up is a natural fact of life; forgetfulness. Most of our memories have a finite existence unless you revive them. Once you leave that workshop, seminar or whatever; you begin to forget. You can’t help it! That’s why I repeat certain classes… because I missed great ideas previously or didn’t record & review them.

What can you do? Two things: keep a journal and spend 30-60 minutes reviewing daily what you learned until you’ve covered everything about the class. The journal’s a record of those ideas you developed and any other thoughts about what was taught or went on at the seminar. It requires a special effort to make the time and follow through. But isn’t the time and money you’ve already invested in taking the course worth it?

You can believe I do those two things… especially now that my memory is maturing rapidly.

A couple of weeks ago I attended the Why Buy 2007 seminars in the model homes at the new community in San Diego Del Sur. There were seven seminars, but I only had time to attend two, and even then I’m not sure I was able to remember everything! Luckily Del Sur has provided podcasts of all of the seminars free of charge at http://delsurseminar.delsurliving.com. Now I am able to watch the seminars over again and see what I missed. I have learned many valuable tips related to buying, selling, organizing and even market trends. After I am finished with the videos I have incorporated some of your tips to help me remember what I have seen, but it is nice to know the videos are there if I ever need to look back!
