There is a book that I have read called Don't Sweat the Small Stuff, by Richard Carlson. This book has helped me learn how to keep my cool in stressful moments. Over the years, I have become the type of person who rides the wave of life and avoids confrontation. To me, life is too short to get worked up over always being right. There are never any winners in a face-off and even if there were, no one would ever admit to being wrong. Too much wasted energy can be spent analyzing a situation and it never really amounts to anything greater than personal satisfaction. No one is perfect and I'm certainly not. That being said, I have figured out along the way how to change my perception of what is really important in life - like family, friends, and my career. Oh, yeah, and my hair! (ha)

I'm human and sometimes there are definitely times that I have to go "there." It's usually when I feel that someone is just being blatantly disrespectful and dishonest with me. It's never an option to just let things slide without a confrontation of some sort.

In the final episode, I was driven to a point where I had to call a spade a spade. There is never a good time to do that and this time I had to address Josh in the middle of an interview. The interviewer (Jeff Hall) asked Madison, Josh, and I if we had encountered any differences/problems with each other while working in real estate. Josh said "No," Madison said "No," and I had to tell the truth and say, "Yes."

Hey Chad, I read a comment from "Lacey" and again...these people are ALL hating. Do not waste your precious time with them idiots. All negative sayers and what nots are a waste of time. They don't like what you have to do or say or how you deal with probs or situations, then they can hit the channel up or down button on the remote or even the on/off button. Case closed. Enjoy your time, while you're still young, on this television venture. You want to look back and be proud of yourself and make your family proud. Love your stuff.

You pay your bills, you pay for your food and you pay your own way. I read the blogs and they try to have some sort of influence on you;I just think they try to live vicariously. You don't have to change because someone or the masses have an opinion of you. Because it's exactly that...their opinion. Try not to get caught up. Life is too short. You do your own thing.

Chad don't pay anyone any mind about you or your hair. We love you even if you were bald or hairy. You're human. We love the fact that you're able to make fun of yourself and don't take yourself too seriously and enjoy your life and lifestyle. We love your mom.

Well there is so much to say, but I want to make this short. So First of all.... I love you. You are so real! I love that you say what you need to say. I also love that you avoid confrontation, however when worst comes to worst you say what needs to be said and the proof that needs to be presented. I wish you the best, and i cant wait till October 12th for the season premier.

Chad,
I am so glad you will be back for another season! By far, you are the best salesman on the show. Keep up the great attitude! And the hair... love it!

Chad, Your blog and actions are riddled with contradictions. If your motto is "don't sweat the small stuff," why would you "go there" with Josh? Why isn't a colleague's failed competitive efforts to cover his embarrassment small potatoes...if you are truly secure with yourself, that is? Also, you are clearly going to need to reach for more than the "mcnuggets" of a philosophy to cope with life. Go to the real philosophers or Zen masters, if you have the patience to read a book.

Hello Chad,
You are a very sweet guy. You seem to have a head on your shoulders. Stay away from Josh he is too full of himself. Do not stoop to his level. You seem to have good morals and values that obviously come from mom and dad. Not a bad girlfriend pick either.
Please next season let us see your cute face update your hair a bit more.

Chad, you acted very unprofessionally and childish the way you spoke to Josh. Madison hit it right on when he said he didn't even want to be involved with you on that photo shoot. You are just a little too full of yourself. Obviously you didn't learn a thing from the book "Don't Sweat the Small stuff". It just made you look petty and jealous of Josh. When you don't have anything nice to say, then don't say anything at all.

Chad i have to say i totally agree with you. Josh has been acting childish and it's ridiculous. I think he needs to grow up and accept the responsibility of he's false actions. Maybe sitting down and having a one-on-one talk with him will do some good...just an idea.

I don't know why you couldn't let things slide, and embarrass someone. To me, that's extremely immature and unprofessional. oh, and I HATE YOUR HAIR. why do you think that looks good on you, if anyone could actually see your face, it'd be better. and you dress like a 18 year old. grow up.

Chad,
I live in Ontario, Canada. Since I have watched your show I have wanted to get into real estate. I think that it is great that you are doing Real Estate at your age and have encountered such great wealth at your age. That is why you are my Idol. I would love to come and work with you, but the commute is a little bit...lol. I have a question though. If I choose Real Estate as my career choice, what kind of courses do I take when I go to university? By the way, I'm only 14 years old, lol.
