property matters...

I've been to a number of events over the past couple of weeks, and had the privilege of meeting many inspiring people. That has got me pondering the attributes of successful and entreprenueurial people.

Many people believe that it is entrepreneurs who will help Britian out of this economic downturn. There is massive opportunity for those people who see a niche in the market and fill it.

At 4wallandaceiling.com, we’ve made our name being a reliable and trust-worthy source of property information.  However, as you may have also noticed, we do take a more holistic approach to business, and endeavour to introduce you to other concepts that we believe will make a difference to your life in general.

We spend a great deal of time on the internet learning new ideas, and we also attend many varied events in person.  Vanessa recently attended the “Women Unlimited” event in London and she came away feeling very inspired and having met some truly amazing women who are making a huge difference in the world.  We try and distil everything we learn down into some content to earn your continued attention.

We hope you find today’s blog valuable from both a business and personal point of view.

When you wake up in the morning, do you hope for a “good day”?   A day full of joy, happiness, laughter, positivity ....  Some people get those sort of days, and others don’t.  Have you ever wondered why?!

A great deal depends on one's circumstances, environment and efforts.  A lot also depends on your attitude, and the energy you put out – whether that is positive or negative.  The quality of your thinking determines the quality of your life.  

Few "good days" occur by happenstance.  Life is a series of "choices."  We believe for the most part that it is within your power to have a “good day” every day.


On a beautiful sunny morning, what better time to start thinking about Summer holidays?

What comes to mind when you think of the British seaside holiday? Candy floss, crazy golf and ballroom dancing? Cream teas, milkshakes, and fish and chips? Sandcastles, buckets and spades, and paddling? Not to mention the miles of beautiful and unspoiled coast of this island nation - from sweeping sandy beaches to craggy cliffs. Wherever you are in England, you are never more than 73 miles from the sea! It's ingrained in our genetic make-up and culture!


 

Thank you to everyone who attended and contributed to our event on Sunday 15th March.  We aim to earn your continued support by always delivering massive value and great networking, so we hope you found it a worthwhile day!

What matters most

It's funny. When people find out that we're involved in property, their faces take on a sad frown and they say "oh it must be so difficult for you at the moment".  That makes us smile.  We had a call from the BBC earlier this week asking us to contribute to a forthcoming programme called "Property Watch".   In the course of the conversation, the Producer asked us if we were feeling negative about the business we were in.  "Far from it", we replied, "there's never been greater opportunity for those who choose to see it that way".  But while property is our main focus, and it's great to feel so passionate about something, we'd be the first to admit it's not the be all and end all of everything.

We were driving back from speaking at the Lincs Property Investor Network on Friday, when we had a phone call to tell us that our seven year old niece Alicia, had been involved in a serious accident and was in hospital.  From being jolly and looking forward to the weekend, the atmosphere in the car changed instantly.  It was a wake-up call for us to hear our family members in such distress, and, as we changed course to drive to the hospital, we pondered about what matters most in life.

When he began teaching at Cornell, the Russian novelist Vladimir Nabokov said he knew just two things: One, life is beautiful, and two, life is sad. The reason life is sad, he said, is because it's going to end.
