I hope so since I am hosting an open house both days. The point of an open house is to be "productive" no matter how you define that word and no matter how you define a successful open house.

Productive? Yes! Doing an Open House today, later on, have an appointment with a client. After that, learning a new software https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/photo/. They give you a free 10 day trial, go check it out! It's only $49 one time investment, sure beats Adobe Photoshop which is $25 a month forever.

I am productive whenever I set the intention to be productive. There are times I just do not want to not think about work.  Sometimes that is over a weekend other times it is during the week.  The beauty of it all is ... I decide.  My business does not run me. I run my business.

You better be... you are a REALTOR, agent, broker and work when other people don't.. When buyers and sellers are available you say how high do you want me to jump. Real estate is a jealous master and wants your undivided dedication. Take vacations, shut it off but like your job, pour your all into it for excellence and more market share than others in it wished you sliced off year after year. It is not work if it is a passion, if you are organized and reinvent the list and twist daily.

This weekend productive means applying holographic technology to create the 'bling' that will violate all the rules governing the proper use of the REMAX logo.  It will be AWESOME!!

Joseph,

It depends on what you mean by productive.  Even when we are asleep we are productive.  Resting one's body is very productive, it is part of a healthy lifestyle.  A

It depends on how you define "productive". If I'm doing admin stuff or working on marketing or CEs, I consider that productive. I will show and list on the weekend when needed but I try not to work on Sunday and one day during the week. Everyone needs to take time off to recharge and not feel guilty about it.
