I would say bout 35 plus years ago, when I first started out in this business, I was stubborn, hard headed and ignorant. I remember finding out how hard it was to learn Real Estate and in a moment of frustration, someone snapped a picture of me capturing my first time out in the Real Estate arena. You could say I was dumb. Some said I was even an Ass and gave them pains in certain areas.....but what did they know?
ME STARTING OUT...I HAD PROMISE
I quickly learned not to stay in the above dimension because it didn't look good and it doesn't make for a good living either as people would always run ride me around. People just don't relate to hard headiness or stubbornness. I learned to change my demeanor and work on my knowledge banks and eventually ended up changing for the better...BELOW
That's me on the far right with two clients I picked up one evening. WHO would have known? WHO WHOOO? It just goes to show you that birds of a feather do indeed flock together. I was slowly learning to become more reachable but I was still lofty in position and always out of reach if you know what I mean. Plus, I found out that Real Estate hours include being available during the day
HERE I AM JUMPING FROM ONE THING TO ANOTHER....below
BELOW: I then decided to try different things because Real Estate is so vast and there are so many things to learn and explore so I found myself JUMPING AROUND from category to category always taking off just fine but landing pretty hard. You learn that to know much but be the master of nothing interferes with hitting the heights...No jumping around was not for me. I had to stand still for something
Thats me below working hard and trying to pick up the "scent" of the business to sweeten the honey pot. Hard focused work pays off and keeps one busy and helps one to become all they can BEE....You learn that life is more that just chasing dollars and "scents" at some point... You got to smell the flowers sure.... but also make a difference too...mm mm
Below is me trying to use all my resources and everything I possessed. I was transparent and easy to read, but still people couldn't relate to my one sided way of thinking. I was always leaning toward the Grey matters and discovered that could come in handy in CELLING (selling) Real Estate. I mean CELLS (sales) make up the core of everything. Yes, CONCENTRATING on cells (sales) and listings is the way to go. But you need substance.....mm mm
BELOW: I knew on was on to something, hard work, using all my resources and giving all I have would lead to me marketing myself so that others would take note. This was a major LEAP for me and it got me very good results too..I decided to take on more body and less brain hoping this would boost sales and enhance the business plan...BELOW
Now things were becoming clearer to me. I was a player, person who could add and subtract and gather assets. The first impression I made from my very first picture to this one is like day and night but I did all the work that brought this about. However, little did I know I was in for more changes that are common in this business
WELL THINGS ARE STARTING TO LOOK UP
BELOW...I found myself elated one day when I first discovered ACTIVERAIN a serious, educational and fun Real Estate centered site with bonus pot pourri subjects that allowed me to hob nob with my fellow professional Real Estate wizards. Little did I know that belonging to such a site with transform me still again..see below below
BELOW: A product of ACTIVERAIN...ACTIVEFAME and ACTIVEGAIN, I now have learned to work smarter and not harder and turn up the creative juices while building my business and promoting my branding all the while I am having FUN FUN FUN...and no my daddy will not take the T-BIRD VETTE awayyyyy (Beach Boys)
I think I will stay at this POSE for a while....as I remind myself to stay with me...the best is yet to be
