Real Rutland Region is on the Rise!
Positive Activity Breeds Positive Activity…
Believing that steady growth is doable takes time, practice and support.
As you travel throughout the Rutland Region look for the positive progress, listen for purposeful passion coming from your neighbors and open your heart to the helpful services within your community.
The community comes together to support Rutland Innovation Home Giveaway…
Why you may ask? Because it’s real, it’s happening; you can see it, you can hear it and you literally can feel the energy shifting…
As you focus on the good it becomes contagious, especially when you share it with your friends and family.
All the same principles apply whether you focus on fear and negativity. It’s easy to find fault. It’s easy to point out mistakes. It’s easy to feel hopeless…
However, it can be just as easy to concentrate on solutions. It becomes easier when you connect with others wanting to solve problems with you…
Here’s a short, yet tangible list of the positive movement happening in the Rutland Region in the recent past. See attached pictures:

I know these are short lists and I’m sure there is much more positive activity going on throughout Rutland County. I’m also sure I’ve missed some new leaders in our community. I encourage you to share your own supportive observations with me. I welcome all the helpful ways you too are seeing your Rutland Region being rejuvenated.
