U Got 2 Mins?

Greetings and Happy St. Patty's Day! Wow, so here it is, two-year anniversary of the official launch of my book Endurance Real Estate today. Time sure flies. The journey has been a blessing and a blast...What a difference two years makes: IMHO, the title of the book and the contents are as relevant as ever!  With the market crystal balls whipsawing and flying around, in this 23 +/- minute episode, I give my brief take on the real estate market (North Carolina centric) and issue a Tsunami Watch! Here's to your crossed finish lines in continued unprecedented times...I hope you enjoy!

Greetings and thanks for joining me! I hope you had a great Christmas and a great Hanukkah season for my friends who celebrate the season.  Wow! Where did the year go? In this 2022 season ending wrap up episode of UGOT2MINS?, we dive into the fact that you have a story to tell and only YOU can tell it! What will be YOUR positive success story for 2023? Thanks to all of you out there who helped me cross my finish lines and who helped make this an incredible year for my family and me - I'm truly grateful. Wishing you and yours a happy, healthy and prosperous 2023... Thanks for listening! 

Greetings and thanks for joining me! In this season of Thanksgiving, I wanted to bring you my now annual Gratitude and Attitude episode. In this brief episode of UGOT2MINS?, I chat for a few minutes about some current topics, and then discuss some of the "things" for which I am forever grateful. The actual list is too long to count. A primary common denominator on my list: most of the things for which I am grateful cannot be purchased with money.  So many have helped me cross my finish lines in business and in life, I try and remember to ask myself "What are you doing, Pete, to help others cross their finish lines?" Wishing you and yours a happy and peaceful Thanksgiving. Thanks for listening! 

Greetings, thanks for joining me and Happy Halloween! In this brief (but fun, not so spooky!) episode of UGOT2MINS?, I highlight some expert opinion regarding what the heck is going on out there and then talk about what we, in my humble opinion, can do to run through the gauntlet of noise to make a positive impact every day in our world and other's we care about. Its circle of control time for sure and its all about crossing finish lines and helping others do the same, in business and in our lives. Thanks for listening!

Greetings! I hope you and yours have had a great summer! In this "back to school" edition of my UGOT2MINS? podcast, I talk about 'My Hypothesis: We are where We're supposed to Be"....I have found in my life that sometimes obstacles, tough times, "negatives", turn out to be opportunities and pivots toward a positive or higher ground. I hope you enjoy this brief take and Thanks for listening!

Greetings! In this fast & fun episode, I give my take on Real Estate Peaks and for fun, I analyze some of the experts who have been predicting the peak since 2017...God Bless the victims of Uvalde, Texas and as always, I'm grateful for our Military veterans.

Greetings and with all that is going on in our world right now, wishing you a tempered but sincere Happy St. Patty's Day! Wow, its the one year anniversary of the official launch of my book Endurance Real Estate today. Time flies.

We are on the FINAL COUNTDOWN to book launch!

I promised it and here it is! Our first interview & fireside chat with two talented small business owners and entrepreneurs, DeWitt Brown and Jeff Moose, owners & operators of the awesome niche outdoor company, Back Country & Beyond. We had a blast! Theirs is a great & true story of entrepreneurship & endurance. In this historic period for all of us, especially small biz owners, please join us and learn what they've done to evolve, survive & thrive in this "Age of Amazon!"

In this Super Bowl week edition of my podcast, I give a Carolina Panther Nation shoutout to Tom Brady - someone I consider to be not just one of the greatest NFL players ever, but one of the greatest Endurance Athletes ever...I wrap up by talking  about 3 lessons I feel Tom has reinforced for me over the years. Thanks as always for listening and here's to you crossing your finish lines in your in your business and in your life!

In this special episode (please don't tell my Executive Producer, but I snuck down to my recording basement and got this one in!), I talk about how the Reddit Army this past week flashed me back to 2008 & some lessons learned & reinforced for me. I think at least some of my upcoming book, Endurance Real Estate, will resonate with some of the Reddit Army & hopefully you! I went a bit long & a bit off script but please hang in there w/me, I finish strong! Thanks for listening!

Thanks for listening! In this episode I briefly discuss a great article in a local publication I recently read about the podcasting industry and also talk briefly about the "front half" of my upcoming book, Endurance Real Estate. Part 2, the "back half"  discussion, will be coming soon. Here's to you crossing your finish lines in your business and in your life!

Happy Inauguration week! Hear me out please: Politics and Business Actually Go Together...We don't have to “like” politics but proactively recognizing its existence can be invaluable as a real estate practitioner, small business owner, entrepreneur or whatever your background. Open dialogue, negotiating in good faith and yes, sometimes even compromising, can help us cross our finish lines, in business and life!

'Who is this guy & why am I listening to him?' Well, how about who I'm not? Best real estate practitioner or small biz owner? No. Do I humbly feel I'm one of the best? Yes! 'Best' endurance athlete? No. Accomplished? Gratefully, Yes. I'm also the grateful recipient of a lot of help from others along my journey. The point: there is only one 'best' in any category at any given moment in time. Don't wait for tomorrow or permission from others to share the gift of your story or experience!

In this episode, I discuss the "We've Never Been Here Before" dynamic of where we are right now with this pandemic, recognizing there are some similarities to what we have gone through in other major downturns, valleys, bumps in the road. As small business owners, entrepreneurs, real estate professionals, what do we do to push through to the next peak? Focusing on my circle of control & influence, doing my best to cross this next finish line, & hoping to take some with me along the way!

Real estate, business and life are all endurance sports. In this edition, I discuss how I arrived at the title of my upcoming book, Endurance Real Estate. Here's to you running from peak to peak and to crossing your finish lines, in your business and your life! Thanks for listening!

In the amazing journey of writing my upcoming book, Endurance Real Estate, I learned something awesome: we each have our own story to tell and only we can tell it! Forget about competition: there is no competition when it comes to telling your story. Who is missing out by you not telling your story, sharing your experience and your wisdom? Looking forward to helping you cross a finish line or two in your business or your life!

Welcome to UGot2Mins! This podcast will be focused on helping seasoned or aspiring real estate professionals, small business owners, entrepreneurs, endurance athletes or whoever you are cross the finish lines of your business and your life! Thanks for coming along on this journey with me and here's to you running from peak to peak, and crossing the finish lines you choose to cross!
