''What you think about an event is more important than the event itself. Better still , while you cannot control the events in your life , you can take charge of your thinking.''
Positive thinking and acting is never about ''you'' only.It profoundly affects the people you directly influence , and changes the world around you.Human beings are the only species on Earth whose inner lives are so powerful that what we think about a situation , how we describe it to ourselves , what meaning we attribute to it or draw from it , matters more than the event itself. And who is doing the thinking , describing and attributing of meaning ? You are.
When you look for the best in other people , you create positive change.
When you uphold peace an any small way , you create positive change.
When you stand up for social justice , you create positive change.
When you see your desire for happiness reflected in other people's lives and act more compassionately , you create positive change.
When you you look at the world from other people's perspectives , you create positive change.
When you take care of the physical environment , you create positive change.
When you give up a little tension and gain a little humor , you create positive change.
When you refuse to be hurried , you create positive change.
When you give thanks for the blessings of existence , you create positive change.

True self-awareness, plus the ability to choose our perceptions of life, the universe and everything, is the basis of free will. Every situation and scene in front of us has so many possibilities in terms of how we perceive and interpret. If someone is 10% selfish and 90% generous what should we focus on, what should we perceive first within them? Most of us are now well trained to perceive and focus on the negative, the selfishness in others, and to follow it quickly with accusation and judgement. We forget that what we perceive is what we empower within another and, more importantly what we perceive is what we empower within ourselves in that moment. And what we choose to see is usually what we get. So how important is it that we choose to perceive only the best, the highest, the greatest in another, even if it's only a half a percent?
Don't forget - your perception is your reality. Your perception is what you project. And what you project is what comes back! 
People downsize for a variety of reasons,
from the “empty nest” syndrome to convenience or hardship. Here are a few
things to consider as you contemplate moving to a smaller home. “Before any
move, focus on how you want to live. People don’t think enough about why
they’re moving,” said Mary Jo Zeller, director at Gero Solutions, which manages
moves for seniors. “Increasing numbers of downsizers these days want to
exchange the worry and expense of maintaining a large property, for the luxury
of low maintenance and the opportunity for more leisure time.”
Emotional ties to the family home is one of
the main barriers to downsizing, but equally, deciding on where to move to, and
what style of property will best suit, can be just as daunting a prospect. During
the downsizing process you may be surprised at how attached you have become to
your possessions and how difficult it might seem to part with them. A good tip
is to start getting rid of your items a few months before your move so donate,
recycle, e-bay and give away some of those items you really don’t need anymore.
This will make the move much easier and your smaller home less cluttered. Decorators
recommend sketching floor plans for your new home to see where all your current
furniture will fit. You shouldn’t wait until you move in to discover that
there’s just no room for that armoire or extra stools.
For those already on the top of their
property ladder, they may find that reversing course and heading down is the
right decision for them.

Our statistics, as reported by the Realtors Association of Hamilton-Burlington, are showing us that house prices in Burlington continue to rise.
Overall, the average sales price in the City of Burlington for the month of February is now a whopping $467,702, compared to the same time over last year, where the average sales price was $413,988. This means an increase of 13%!
Average Days on Market also fell from 38 days last year to 31 days this year, therefore homes are selling faster. Sales however dropped to 259 homes sold compared to 276 home sales at the same time last year. This means less inventory so buyers are paying higher premiums, likely due to lack of choice.
It is still a very hot market and there are lots of qualified home buyers out there searching for the perfect home.
If you have been giving any thought to selling NOW is definitely the time.
We at E-squared Homes are ready to answer any questions you may have about selling your home, buying a home and the market in general.

You may love your home, but that doesn’t mean that everyone coming through the door will feel the same way. What may be “charming” to the seller may seem off-putting to a prospective buyer. Many sellers attempt to stage their home themselves and, in doing so, create mistakes that can actually sidetrack the sale of their homes. Here are some of the biggest staging mistakes, according to professional home stagers.
1. Getting too personal: Home staging is meant to create a neutral canvas that will appeal to the majority of buyers. Staging is all about de-personalizing the space, and creating more of a luxury hotel or a model home look that will appeal to most everyone. This is not the time to bring in your unique style and create a look that appeals to just you.
2 . Using dark colors: If painting, you should choose a nice, neutral and warm color, such as beige tones, grey tones, or light blue or pale greens. You’ll be amazed at the transformation a few coats of fresh paint will make on your home.
3. Not taking advantage of natural light: People love natural light, so blocking off any light with heavy curtains or furniture can hurt your sale, especially if the home has attractive views. Anything dated in a home is a turn-off to a potential buyer and window treatments are one of them.
4. Thinking more is better: Scale down your furniture. The size of the furniture needs to be in balance with the scale of the room and the other furniture in it. Remember that the purpose of furniture when selling a home is to define the purpose of the room and to show what will fit where. It is not meant to show that you can provide seating for 15 in your living room and every seat has a side table to rest drinks on.
5. Leaving pets at home: You need to remove all traces of animals from the house and make sure “Fido” or “Sunshine” is away during showings. Having a pet could kill a sale before someone even steps into a house.
6. Neglecting the outside: People care about the outside space just as much as the inside, so add flowers, make sure the lawn is mowed, the yard is tidy and add a few backyard accessories for the kids.
7. Only dealing with “main” rooms: People are quick to stage living rooms, kitchens and bedrooms, but don’t forget to spruce up the garage, basement and closets as well.
8. Forgetting fixtures: When staging a home, it’s important to ensure all lights are burning with fresh bulbs, and that all fixtures are working.
Remember, staging a home means showcasing the property’s many features, not concealing its flaws. Make sure your house is in good condition and use staging to cast the home in the best light.

At any time, you can decide to change the road you're on in life, take a new direction, follow a new trail. You are the only one who really knows what you want from life and if you're on the right road for you. You are the only one who can fulfill your dreams and receive the joys and happiness that come from reaching those aspirations and goals.
Don't expect others to be responsible for your happiness and your success. You must take control and be in charge of your destiny and day-to-day situations. Take advice (most of the time it's free) and listen to what others have to say and what concerns they have; it's important to have different points of view. But always validate those words of wisdom with your own set of standards and make sure that the advice has meaning to your sense of reality.
You must understand yourself enough to know what you want in life and what desires you believe are worthwhile for your future. You need to depend upon yourself and your talents. Appreciate others for their personal skills and abilities, but always continue to focus on your own strengths and energies. Life is much too short to spend it worrying about someone else's accomplishments or expecting someone else to be responsible for making your life better.
If you have dreams, then you have a purpose. You have something to believe in and work towards obtaining. Dedicate yourself to yourself. Promise yourself a life filled with love, and then whatever roads you travel will be the roads you want them to be.
