The Value Ladder- The Appraisers Climb Toward Success!

​Welcome back to the real value podcast, the podcast about business, life, success; about finding value in anything and everything and about creating absolutely as much of it as you can with the time we have! Good morning my friends and thank you for stopping by my little section of this planet this week, my little value café if you will, where I will gladly give you a double shot of value espresso and do what I can to wake you up to a new way of seeing and doing things that will hopefully lead to a richer life experience, a more profitable business, and most importantly in my opinion, a business that you enjoy waking up for each day instead of one you dread thinking about. I cant do it all though my friends, you’ve got to do some of the work. One of the the most frustrating things a teacher experiences in their career is when they see people struggling even when they’ve been given all the information they need to make positive changes. Changes that, if implemented, could literally be the difference between losing money on Monday and profitable by Wednesday, or not wanting to get out of bed on Tuesday to jumping out of bed on Thursday excited to take on the day and create the life and business maybe you imagined one day long ago but, at some point, gave up on. All of those things are a reality and the options run the gamut. All people, myself included, have the ‘don’t want to get out of bed’ days, that’s just part of the human experience. But not everybody has the ‘jump out of bed ready to take on the day’ days and they are possible, but they are a choice. If you have taken anything from this show, hopefully it is that life, business, those we surround ourselves with, they’re all a choice. No, you cant pick your parents or your siblings, or crazy uncle Earl, his wife Eunice, and their little nose pickers June Bug and Willie, but you get to choose who you surround yourself with and what kind of effect you’ll allow certain people to have on you on any given day. And by the way, you do also get to choose what you do for a living. Despite lots of emotion and snarling to what one would think is the contrary, you DO get to choose your station in life. In fact, wherever you are today and whatever you are doing today is simply in indicator of the choices you made yesterday, last week, last year, 10 years ago, or more.  That’s all it is. Whomever you are with, whatever you do for a living, the car you drive, the room you’re sitting in right now, those were all choices you made at some level. Positive change begins the very moment we accept that everything we are, everything we have or don’t have, and everyone who is in our lives at this moment is a choice we have made. It’s called taking responsibility for you. You don’t have to like it right now, you can be pissed off at your current circumstances, you can angry and upset at your current spouse or significant other, you can be frustrated that you might not have either of those, but you MUST understand at some level you’ve chosen all of this. And when you do make that shift, things begin to change.

​Welcome back to the real value podcast, the podcast about business, life, success; about finding value in anything and everything and about creating absolutely as much of it as you can with the time we have! Good morning my friends, my name is Blaine Feyen and I am your host for this and every episode of the Real Value Podcast and I am so happy to be back in the Real Value Studios this morning hopefully spreading a message that is positive, to the point, success focused, and aimed directly at you because you are the hero of this story my friends! I don’t talk about this often but somebody thanked me again this week for something I tend to forget about and that’s that the Real Value Podcast is always sponsor free. We are approached all the time with sponsorship offers and I’m extremely flattered that those of you who have approached us think there is value in our listenership. As our numbers have grown, the offers for sponsorship have increased to the point where, not only could the expenses of the show be completely covered and then some, the show would be a profitably monetized podcast whereby I have an additional income from the show. However, my goal from the beginning was, and always will be, to add value for you, not promote somebody else’s product or service because they are paying me to do so. I have mentioned products, people, and services before on the podcast and its because I have used, or do use, those services and I’m speaking from my own experience. I also value freedom over many other things and I want to have the freedom to speak on whatever I want to speak on and it can become tough to do that when you have somebody paying you for something. I will not waste your time promoting products or services because I am being paid to do so. I will promote products and services if I use them personally and think they may help you in some aspect of your life and business. I value you and your time too much to do that and am very proud to say that the Real Value Podcast continues to be sponsor free.

​Welcome back to the real value podcast, the podcast about business, life, success; about finding value in anything and everything and about creating absolutely as much of it as you can with the time we have! Good morning my friends, my name is Blaine Feyen and I am your host for this and every episode of the Real Value Podcast! As most of my listeners know, this is a podcast primarily for my appraiser brothers and sisters because that too is what I do on this journey through life, but the topics, lessons, ideas, and the tactical and practical we talk about each week are just as relevant if you are in the car business, the real estate or mortgage business, the food service industry or a hair styling business. How do I know this? Well, several ways. One, I get messages on facebook and LinkedIN fairly frequently from people in other industries who have found or been referred to the podcast who say thanks for insights, the tactical and practical, the suggestions, and the message. Two, my beautiful partner Jolene runs a successful styling business that has been growing by leaps and bounds every year for the past 2 or 3 years. We have been collaborating together over that time to help her implement many of these same ideas into her business and if she was on the podcast with us today she would tell just how big of an impact the ideas and practices have made in her business.
