La Quinta California Real Estate

Years ago, I worked for Prudential and in the middle of our move last week I found the book I was given when I first joined their office.  Its called "Oh, the Places You'll Go!" by none other then Dr. Seus.  I  quickly read through the book again last night and had a huge smile on my face.  This is such a great motivational book, and a story about attitude being the difference between success and failure.

So I thought I would share it with you this Wednesday morning, and hope fully uplift you today, as it did for me. So heres to you, and I hope you move mountains kid!

Congratulations!

Today is your day.

Your off to great places

Your off and away!

You have brains in yur head

You have feet in your shoes

You can steer yourself

any direction you chose.

You're on your own. And you kow what you know.

And YOU are the guy who"ll decide where to go.

You"ll look up and down streets. Look 'em over with care.

About some you will say,"I don't chose to go there."

With your hea full of brains and your shoes full of feet,

you're to smart to go down any not-so good street.

And you may not find any

you'll want to go down

In that case, of course,

you'll head staright out of town.

It's opener there

In the wide open air.

Out there things can happen

and frequently do

to people as brainy

an footsy as you.

 

nd when things start to happen,

dont wory.Dont stew.

Just go right along.

You'll start happening too.

 

Oh The Places You'll Go

 

You'll be on your way up!

You"ll be seeing great sights!

You'll join the high flyers

who soar to high heights.

You wont lag behind, because you'll have the speed.

You'll pass the whole gang and you'll soon take the lead.

Wherever you fly, you"ll be best of the best.

Wherever you go, you will top all the rest.

Except when you dont.

Because sometimes you wont.

Im sorry to say so

but sadly, its true

that Bang ups

and Hang ups can happen to you.

You can get all hung up

in a prickle-ly perch

And your gang will fly on

You'll be left in a lurch.

You'll come down from the Lurch

with an unpleasant bump,

And the chances are then,

that you'll be in a slump.

And when your in a slump,

your not in for much fun.

Un Slumping yourself

is not easily down.

You will come to a place whenre the streets are not marked

Some windows are lighted.But mostly they're darked

A place you could sprain both your elbow and chin!

Do you dare to stay out? Do you dare to go in?

How much can you lose? How much can you win?

And IF you go in, should you trun left or right....

or go in three quarters? Or, maybe, not quite?

Or go around back and sneak in from behind?

Simple its not, I'm afraid you will find,

for a mind-maker upper to make up his mind.

You can get so confused

that you'll start in to race

down long wiggled roads at a break-necking pace

and grind on for miles across weirdish wild space,

headed, I fear, toward a most useless place.

The waiting Place.

for people just waiting

Waiting for a train to go

or a bus to come, or a plane to go

or the mail to come, or the rain to go

or the phone to ring, or the snow to snow

or waiting around for a YES or No

or waiting for their hair to grow.

Everyone is just, waiting.

Waiting for fish to bite

or waiting for wind to fly a kite

or waiting around for Friday night

or waiting perhaps, for their Uncle Jake

or a pot to boil, or a Better Break

or a string of pearls, or a pair of pants

or a wig with curls, or Another chance.

Everyone is just waiting.

NO!

Thats not for you!

Somehow you'll escape

all that waiting and staying.

You'll find the bright places

where Boom Bands are playing.

With banner flip-flapping,

once more you'll ride high!

Ready for anything under the sky.

Ready because you're that kind of guy!

Oh, the places you'll go! There is fun to be done!

There are points to be scored. There are games to be won.

And the magical things with that ball

will make you the winning-est winner of all.

Fame! You'll be famous as famous can be,

with the whole wide worl watching you win on TV.

Except when they dont.

Because sometimes they won't

Im afraid that some times

you'll play lonely games too.

Games you can't win

'cause you;ll play against you.

ALL Alone!

Whether you like it or not,

Alone will be something

you'll be qute a lot.

And when your alone, there's a very good chance

you'll meet things that scare you right out of your pants.

There are some, down the road between hither and yon,

that can scare you so much you won't want to go on.

But on you will go

though the weather may be foul.

Oh you will go

though your enemies prowl.

On you will go

though the Hakken-Kraks howl

Onward up many

a frightening creek,

though your arms may get sore

and your sneakers may leak.

On and on you will hike

And I know you'll hije far

and face up to your problems

whatever they are.

You"ll get mixed up of course,

as you already know.

You'll get mixed up,

with many strange birds as you go.

So be sure when you step.

Step with care and great tact

and remember that Life's

a Great Blanacing Act.

Just never forget to be dexterous and deft.

And never mix up your right foot with your left.

And will you succeed?

Yes! You will, indeed!

(98 and 3/4 percent guaranteed.)

KID YOU"LL MOVE MOUNTINS!

so....

be your name Buxbaum or Bixby or Bray

or Mordecai Ali Van Allen O'Shea,

your off to Great Places!

Today is your day!

Your mountain is waiting.

o....get on your way!
