Do You Reevaluate What You Do – or Do You Do The Same Old Thing?

Recently read an article by Jeremy Conway in Orlando Realtor Magazine entitled, “Are you ready to deal with frugal?”(pg. 13) Personally, I think I lead a somewhat ‘frugal life.’ I generally don’t have an issue spending money, but don’t believe in throwing it away as well. On the other hand, I occasionally go through my house and donate things that I haven’t used in a while instead of just collecting more stuff. And that’s an interesting thing, because all it is – is just stuff!


This got me to thinking. For some frugality would be a deprivation of sorts; to others it is a way of life. For someone to make change like this, they’d need to reevaluate their life and what they are doing. This led me to wonder how often people do this. For some of us we probably do it fairly regularly; for others, I’m sure that they almost never wish to do this.

Yes, it’s called introspection. But what good is introspection if you don’t do anything with your so-called findings? This extends throughout not only our personal lives, but our business lives as well.

With our business model, we have to reevaluate consistently, or at least periodically, how we do things. Why we are doing those things? Are we getting the desired results out of what we are doing? These questions are pertinent to our success.

Today, I went to a mortgage market update class. My intention in going was to be up to date on what’s happening within our industries. I didn’t do this only for myself and my business, but feel that it is necessary for me to do this for my clients and my potential clients. Granted, the material that was served didn’t fulfill me in the least. But I did at least try to seek out more.

But, let’s take this another step further. Do you generally reevaluate your personal & business lives? Are you doing the same old thing? Are you getting the results that you wish? Hasn’t it been stated that insanity is doing the same thing over and over again but expecting different results.

It appears to me that we are victims of rote, repetition, redundancy. This appears to be human nature. Whether we do this because it is easier or we are within our so-called comfort zone – I don’t know. But it can be a hindrance to our advancement and achievements.

Do you seek out to learn possibly new ways of looking at something or doing something - even simple little things?

I read blog posts daily looking to glean information; trying to learn something new or different. And that’s part of it. It’s the learning process. Life is a learning process. You have to continue to be open to learn new things or maybe even a different way to do something. Otherwise – why? Is it not for naught then?
