Deepest Human need

"The deepest human need is the need to be appreciated."--psychologist William James

Knowing that would it suffice to say that the talented people that work with/for us should be appreciated most?

iPhone mobile applications

Is anyone out there working on an application for sharing apartment information iPhones? How many of you have an iPhone? Just curious.

I think this answers the Brand YOU question I put on Twitter the other day.

Apartment Forum...a quote that applies

When somebody is complaining about your product, they are saying, 'I
would love to love you but I cannot currently.' These people will
become your most passionate users if you listen to them and if you take
action."

--Marten Mickos,
SVP Sun Microsystems

A day recorded for future reference

I hope that all the readers of this blog would humor me by reading the following quote which spoke the world to me in this season of my life. Today marks a defining moment:

"The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ,
Moves on:nor all they Piety nor Wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line,
Nor all thy tears wash out a word of it."

Thank you and tomorrow I promise to get back to the regular scheduled program. To each, have an amazing day and a great 8' M

Wise Words to follow

Michael J. Fox once said, "I am careful not to confuse excellence with
perfection. Excellence, I can reach for; perfection is God's business."

Prophets

There is no virtue in being uncritical nor is it a
habit to which the young are given. But criticism is only the burying beetle
that gets rid of what is dead, and, since the world lives by creative and
constructive forces, and not by negation and destruction, it is better to grow
up in the company of prophets than of critics.

-Richard Livingstone

Remember this the next time you think to criticize a class, training, or conference that you attend. How many of you take the time to offer either positive or negative feedback? How many of you take it one step further by providing well thought out written feedback in the comment section? I will be the first to say that I am guilty of disclosing my opinions in the 1 to 5 rating columns but when it comes time to write thoughts on how to make it better or different, I refrain.

Make your Apartment Property Insanely Great in 2008

I wanted to start the year of with a quote and this is the one I chose...

"You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment. Fools stand on their island opportunities and look toward another land. There is no other land, there is no other life but this."

- Henry David Thoreau

Experts in Property Management

An expert is a person who has made all the mistakes that can be made in a very narrow field.” Niels Bohr

I read somewhere that it takes a good 10 years of study and application in one specific niche to be considered an expert.

With that I wonder who you think are the experts in our field.

A Property Manager's right...

[There is a] "difference between what you have the right to do, and what is the right thing to do." -Potter Stewart, U.S. Supreme Court Justice.

I have some thought about this relative to the apartment management business, however I would like to hear what you have to think.
