How I Live Life

I live my life each day with a view towards eternity. I strive to live by spiritual principles in everything I do. Each day I seek out people and opportunities that allow me to cheerfully serve others. I have learned that by conscientiously and unselfishly serving others, I express my gratitude to God for the life I have been given.

I strive to have the highest integrity in all my relationships. I am willing to work hard, and I have the self-discipline to achieve my goals. I seek excellence in all I do through daily progress...not an obsessive drive for perfection. I am reminded each day that life is a gift, and it is perfect just as it is - even if there is some struggle. I rejoice in learning and helping others to avoid struggle and pain in their own lives. I have genuine positive expectations of people, and am surprised when they don't do well. I strive to bring out the best in people.

I love my family and friends and treat each one with respect. I seek to understand, and to value their differences. I consciously make daily deposits in their emotional bank accounts, encouraging them to become all they can be. I accept full responsibility for my life.

I seek wisdom through a continuous program of personal development. I am physically fit, feeding my body healthy thoughts and healthy foods. I exercise regularly to maintain my strength and endurance. I practice good stewardship of the gifts God has given me and I expect increase knowing that God is abundant. I serve others by encouraging them to reach their fullest potential. I build other people up by seeing only that which God created them to be.

When I die, I'd like people to be able to say this about me: "Scott, I always felt better about myself and the world when you were around."

What an amazing life that would have been...and no doubt a dream worth my pursuing!

Real Estate Career

I started studying real estate in 1986 but was told I was too young to actually get licensed in real estate.  Eventually time passed and I re-took my real estate classes.  Now I have been actively helping others to buy and sell real estate for over 30 years and have risen to the top 5% of agents in the country.  During this time I have been and continue to be on several committees at Richmond Association of Realtors (RAR) including The Professional Standards Committee, and being the Chair of the Forms committee which creates the contracts that most Realtors use in our area.  I have been a member of The Board of Directors for Central VA MLS.  I am currently an instructor at RAR and teach other agents Ethics, Professional Standards, Fair Housing and How to work with HUD Homes.  I am one of the few brokers locally selected by HUD - Housing and Urban Development is the largest seller of homes in the country - to market and sell their properies.  I am currently a member of The Board of Directors for RAR.  I now own Lifelong Realty, Inc. with my partner for life, Angela.

 

Angela is my high school sweetheart, my wife and mother to our 3 amazing kids.  She is passionate about helping people to clarify their dreams and bringing those dreams into reality.  Angela is a graduate of UVA and Ohio State University
