Looking At The Bright Side

By
Real Estate Agent with RE/MAX Results MN#20344949 WI#93113-94

Some days go better than others, and in general we have mostly good days.  Especially if you have a roof over your head, food to eat and $1000 in your bank account - then your actually doing better then most people.

There are those tough days, challenging days, the ones were you get surprised (in a negative way).  What do you do when that happens?

I think each event is meant to take you HIGHER in life. Even if its something challenging, uncomfortable or appears to be a big let down.

Learn the lesson; then do your best and move forward. GOOD will come from it and in most cases it will work out for all people concerned better expected.

What is that saying?  What doesn't kill us makes us stronger?  Good post, good reminder!  I think we sometimes forget how good we have things.

When real estate world gets "interesting" I spend time thinking about all the blessings. Tough times helps you appreciate the good times.

When adversity hits, we need to stop, take a breath before proceeding.  Many time the issue will solve itself in short order.

When something negative happens in my like, I immediately go into solution mode. I don't spend a lot of time focusing on the problem.
