Good morning! I was thinking about what I do when things get slow. What do you do? For a while, people in my office moped and complained about how slow business was and how much they hated what they did. Now, there are so few left (we're down to 5 from a high of 16) that it's a lot quieter and not as much of a problem.
I consider myself lucky. For some reason I was chosen to do what I do. And I love it. Yes, business could be better although at the moment I'm working on more loans than ever. I think the key is I don't really allow myself to stop and think about where I am. And, compared to others lot in life, I'm a pretty lucky guy!
I'm curious what you do when you find yourself with little or no business. Do you tell yourself you need to have coffee with someone, pop by someone's place of work, or send a thank you note to someone you appreciate? I think there are all kinds of ways to keep the fire lit. The key is to take action and remind yourself of why you're doing what you do. It doesn't necessarily mean it's going to be easy. As we all know, we're in uncharted waters and it may be a while before we turn the corner.
Again, I'd like to hear your suggestions. Today I'm ready and raring to get to work. But who knows about tomorrow? Every day we need to find something that keeps us going. Have an awesome day!
Paul
