You can read various writings online by Benjamin Radford where he refers to Dr. Barry Beyerstein's research disputing this.<br /><br />Okay, so, maybe it would be more accurate to say that some REALTORS® only engage 10% of their brain when they are supposed to be educating their clients.<br /><br />Either way, you are obviously using much more of your brain than either of these two. How do we know that? Because you are here of course! It is proven that our clients and potential clients are always looking for more and that is what brings them to this website. Some call it devine intervention, some call it the secret. We think it is pure and simple brain power. Our clients are smarter. The people we serve are all smarter than the average population.<br /><br />So, with you personally in mind, these articles will stimulate at least 1% of your brain. At the risk of repeating myself, this is obvious because you are on this website reading all you can about real estate plain and simple. Otherwise you would be on another site getting a painful lesson on bait and switch marketing or perhaps a lesson on "how not to return a phone call" or worse yet, maybe you would be reading from a "just trust me, I am the neighborhood expert" site. Not to worry, you are safe with us. Put on your thinking cap and tie it loosley as it is about to expand.<br /><br />Real Estate Articles by Michelle Shelton that will increase your brain power by at least 1%!<br /><ul><li><a class="" title="" href="http://www.askmichelleshelton.com/-_Buyer_Articles/page_1708126.html" target="">Articles for Buyers </a></li><li><a class="" title="" href="http://www.askmichelleshelton.com/Sellers_Articles/page_1835563.html" target="">Articles for Sellers </a></li><li><a class="" title="" href="http://www.askmichelleshelton.com/_Parenting_Articles_/page_1709217.html" target="">Articles for Parents </a></li><li><a class="" title="" href="http://www.azmastermind.com/ARTICLES_FOR_REALTORS/page_1861640.html" target="">Articles for REALTORS® </a><br /><br />Acknowledgments.
