What goes up, must come down - here is some inspiration for you.

What goes up, must come down.

The good news is that what is down, will always go up.  This is kind of like "is the glass half full or half empty". How do you choose to see it?

It is rough out there for everyone, but what I refuse to do is jump on the pity party bus.  We all knew this would happen (maybe not this severe). We all knew we should plan for this day when things are not as hot as they were 3 years ago.  Perhaps if nothing else, we learn from this experience and when this market is stable we will plan, save and re-invest in our business.

What I do know is that we are all working twice as hard for half as much. Now we can sit back and say, this stinks, or we can take the bull by the horns and say, YES, I will work twice as hard. I will prevail.  Know that when you prevail you will be stronger than ever. 

In my industry (Real Estate Virtual Assistant or REVA), I feel this market is slimming out those of us that are in this as a business and not a hobby.  Therefore, RealSupport will prevail, this is a good thing for us!  More agents will come to us because we mean business.  I think the real estate professional should look at it the same way. This market correction, in ONE way, could be a good thing.  It is going to weed out all those agents that got in to real estate to make a quick buck on the side.  Those days are long gone, and those agents are long gone because when it comes down to it, they were not willing to work twice as hard for half as much.  You are.  You will. And you will prevail. 

You are your thoughts, make them good ones!
