Welcome to show number 300! Today marks a milestone for us with the Flipping America show. Thanks to all of our sponsors for making it possible and thank you to YOU for making the show a big hit! It’s not a college football game coming down to the last few seconds, but for a real estate show, it’s pretty exciting! Making money YAY! Financial freedom YAY! Purpose, meaning, legacy, YAY! Wait, isn’t it just a bit odd that sporting events seem to get us a LOT more enthusiastic than these other things that actually are the warp and woof of our lives.

Speaking of woof, I had a rough afternoon Saturday, like a lot of you Dawg fans out there. I had to go outside and sit by myself for awhile. One of the many thoughts I was thinking while pondering Georgia’s unbelievable upset loss is “why does this matter so much to me?” I came close to an answer when I decided that I just really want to root for a team that wins a championship. I’m not much of a baseball fan but was delighted to be in the area when the Braves had their moment in the early 90’s. I know we are the soccer champs, but honestly, I didn’t realize we were any good until I heard on the news that we were playing for the championship. And I really don’t mean any disrespect, but it’s just difficult for guys my age to get excited about soccer. We didn’t grow up with it. Anyway -- this was going to be the year for Georgia. We have elite talent, expectations were high - and then dashed. I know a championship is possible, but have you seen LSU and Alabama play? South Carolina barely whimpered as Alabama rolled over them. And I’m not sure they can beat LSU this year.

But here’s how to eventually get out of this mental mire - you just have to say - “hey - it’s just a game. It won’t be important in 100 years and it doesn’t affect my life, my destiny, or my future any more than I allow it to.” Now THAT’s a word of wisdom for everyone here. We have to get some perspective on our lives and think about what really matters. Sports. Yay. LIFE. YAY!
