A Time for Learning!

Last week, I was at the Core Training, Inc's bi-annual summit, learning how to cater to our clients and referral sources by a) showing people you care, b) doing your best , and c) doing the right thing. 

The room was full of realtors and lenders that are exploding their businesses by implementing structure, building teams and saving their money! Strange concept right? What are you doing to further your business? Are you working IN your business or reacting outside of it? Do something to enhance your tool kit! 

The Core Training (of which I am one of their lender coaches) has great resources for you! Check it out here!

I could give you a doughnut...but I prefer instead to give you tools to reach your goals!

Cinco de Mayo Trivia! + Happy Mother's Day!

Since Cinco de Mayo was just last week, I wanted to pass a bit of trivia and personal opinion to you. 

Many of you may know that I am married to a Mexican, so I have the intel on Mexican history! Cinco de Mayo (5^th of May) was the day that the Mexicans beat the French in Puebla. After previously fighting in the Veracruz port (over money that Mexico owed to France), the French moved westward on the way to the capital to collect! They were cut off in Puebla, and the Mexicans prospered. The French went home, and forgave the money owed.

 

Not to downplay this important victory, but the REAL MEXICAN HOLIDAY that they celebrate (similar to our July 4^th), is the Independence Day from Spain in 1810 - the 16^th of September (Diez y Seis de Septiembre!) Trouble pronouncing ? EXACTLY......that is my theory, that the gringos celebrate Cinco de Mayo because they CANNOT PRONOUNCE Diez y Seis de Septiembre, or Veinte de Noviembre, or Veinte Cuatro de Febrero....all more important holidays in Mexican history by the way!).
