Finally! I was lost but now I have a compass!

Finally!  I was lost but now I have a compass!  On Friday June 13, 2014, only three days before my 32nd birthday, I was told my employment with Morgan Properties was terminated.  All I could think of was "But I just ordered my birthday cake!"
 
It is Thursday October 2, 2014 and I can say that even though I have been unable to find my path, I have a good compass and a set of tools to navigate through life with my head held up high!  The path wasn't easy but it was crowded with the right people.  In the beginning it was hard to see because I had my head up my behind.  I still can't see but my compass is guiding me the right way!
 
How do I know?  Because I am happy!  I feel productive!  Creativity is coming in slowly.  I'm excited about my future!  So this is what I have been doing:
 
1)  Sold my first house on Sept 4th
2) Opened my 2nd Property Management Company for HOA/Condo Associations
3) Have written a lot of contracts!
4) Have a business coach
5) Have a real estate property management mentor
6) Going to counseling
7) Started drawing
8) Have a part time job being concierge at a Luxury Apartment Complex Downtown
10) Wore my PINK hard hat at a solar panel farm!!
 
 
 
11) Cut my hair!!
12) Will be going to Puerto Rico in November
 
My husband and I went through a couple of hick-ups but his disposition to make things work is fabulous!  We accept we communicate differently and make adjustments.
 
As for my real estate sales, slowly but surely!  Went to the Dundalk Housing Fair last Saturday and we got 20 leads!  Sent emails out today!  I  have been sending  my FSBO (For Sale By Owner) care packages!  They are a riot!  Been following up with them too!  Third and Second letters going out on Monday!
 
My mother was operated on yesterday fixing her right wrist which she fractured about two weeks ago.  It was a hard long way but finally it's done.  She is in a lot of pain, which I wish I could take away and make her feel better and have her laughing.  Not having someone laugh, when that's what is what they usually do, it's heartbreaking.  But God is a healing God, by Jesus's blood she will be healed!  She will use that hand to heal others and to bring them blessings!
 
 
Thank you for visiting will be writing more often!
 
Your Friend, Nathalia

Going all the way! Million Dollar Style

So, one of my best qualities and also my worst is being ABRASIVE.
 
Men don't like it.  People that don't pay their rent on time don't like it.
 
But it has gotten me a job, fabulous connections that are now friends and a husband.
 
Therefore I am not changing.
 
I love watching Bravo's Million Dollar Listing New York, specially because of Luis D. Ortiz from Douglas Elliman.  He is Puerto Rican, very handsome and a real estate agent.  It's like me but the female version.  I love his passion, dedication and pursuit of the American Dream.
 
So that got me thinking, I wonder if the Maryland Hispanic Business Conference has someone to be the keynote speaker.  And wouldn't it be FABULOUS to have Luis D. Ortiz to be that person?
 
Another fantastic quality of mine is research.  I went to the Douglas Elliman website and BAM!  With my abrasiveness, I emailed.
 
With in minutes I got a CALL from a lady that works with him.  Stating "Luis wanted me to call you and let you know of his speaking fees."  Mind you, I was on the other phone speaking to a client of mine.  So, I put my other client on hold and I speak to Luis' representative.  I let her know I am a board member for the Maryland Hispanic Chamber of Commerce and we are involved with the annual Maryland Hispanic Business Conference that is scheduled for Tuesday September 2nd in Bethesda Maryland.  She said she will email me her contact information in the event the board decides they would like Luis to be our keynote speaker.
 
I felt like I was back at a Menudo concert in Bellas Artes, San Juan Puerto Rico. 
Screaming my lungs out.  Jumping uncontrollably.  Counting my blessings.
 
There you have it.  Don't just dream it. Plan it.  Execute it.  Live it!!
 
There is NOTHING TO FEAR, for you and I have Jesus Christ to strenghtens us!!!!!
 
I will soon reveal what EODG means!!
