Sky is Falling

 

One thing we all know - change is constant.  And change demands we find a way to get from where we are to where we are going - regardless of whether the process is within or without our "comfort zone".

In my career in Corporate Americe I had experience on both sides of the "reorganization equation".  I've been "riffed" (Reduction In Force) and had to repost for a position within the same company, and I've been the bearer of not so good news to dozens of good people who had the "misfortune" to work for a company that eliminated thousands of jobs after 9/11 tragedy.

It's never an easy discussion - regardless of whether you are the bearer or the recipient of the news that the world just changed.Sky Is Falling

BUT - with change comes opportunity!  There is going to be "reaction time" when emotions kick in and nothing seems to make sense.  Get past that as quickly as you can!  I have yet to encounter a situation to which there is no solution.  Proceed on the basis that there is a viable solution - one that will work for you - and then take the necessary steps to identify it and implement it!

It will undoubtedly take you out of your comfort zone - but that's the ONLY way to grow!

I hear from many in this real estate market that "the sky is falling"!  It's safe to say that "The Sky is ALWAYS Falling somewhere - and the sun is ALWAYS shining somewhere.

It's not easy - but get past the emotion and put on your Thinking Cap!  If you need help thinking it through - reach out to friends and acquaintances who may be able to provide some objective insights!  The answer may be that you need to chart a new and different course entirely - or you may find that a seemingly minor course correction will get you back on track.Set Sail

Don't ignore it - don't play ostrich - time waits for no-one - and the clock ticks on.

Think it through and find the solution - then set sail for clearer skies!

So the sky has fallen....we'll just wait until the storm passes and get back to work.  It is a cycle.

I spoke with an agent a couple of days ago who said they are going on a short vacation because "business is so slow". 

When business is slow, that's when I work the hardest.  If you go away in a slow market, you just have to start all over when you return to work. 

Selling real estate is not like a government job with benefits.

And often times it turns out that being forced to make a change turns out to be a wonderful benefit, because you wind up better off than you were. Contentment is the biggest enemy of growth.

Lots of great advice here!  Even though we know what we need to do sometimes we need to read a blog and the responses to remind ourselves:-)

Tony,

Very eloquently said.  It made me remember when we had a business fail, a serious injury, and a house fire all in two days.  We looked toward heaven, thanked the Lord we were all alive, and said, "OK, we're listening."  Our lives started in an entirely new direction that day.  It was scary, but exciting as well.

I have a saying; change is not good or bad it is reality.
