Never Give Up

Winston Churchill said the difference between victory and defeat is persistance. I was having breakfast the other day with some older gentlemen and a World War Two vetran friend of mine mentioned this Churchill qoute.

I figured this would be a great comment for the word of the day and great quote group so here it is.

It is very timely. I see people leaving the real estate industry complaining how tough it is to make a living. Well I guess it is, NEWS FLASH!!! It's work.

But rest assured those that work will be just fine. There is nothing wrong with tightening the belt when necessary and being more diligent with your work.

I have three kids that depend on me on a daily basis and thank the good Lord, there is still a comfortable living that can be made in real estate. You just have to "work" it.

So let me encourage you to NEVER GIVE UP.

Hi Tim,

I found this VERY comforting and a good reminder that adversity is part of the human condition. What doesn't kill us will make us stronger! LOL! Thanks for the post.

Persistence, persistence, persistence how many times can I say it? It works and it works well. I love this market most agents are feeling bad because it the holidays and no one is home. Got go were the people are and make it work. Meet at least 25 people per day.
