I have a few dogs. My mom likes to call it "the zoo". Just three, perhaps one too many, 2 yorkies & a lab, Jinxsey.
Jinxsey's a puppy, she's challenging, she's fun & she's annoying as hell sometimes but I love her, that's why she stays.
Lately since I have been really busy selling Real Estate I have been so annoyed when I come home that Jinxsey has chewed this, torn that or EATEN something, anything: magnets, shoes, the yorkies (ok, just chewed on them), newspapers, tortillas, ok, you get the picture.
Last night while she was calm I thought about all I have learned from her in her few short months, and how I should use what I have learned in my Real Estate career. Here's my synopsis:
- Always, above all else, have fun. Have fun showing, have fun researching, have fun teaching, have fun listing!
Jinxsey doesn't know anything else but FUN, why should we?
-
Never stop learning. Be curious, be nosy & ask questions. This is the only way you will keep your mind moving & spinning.
Part of the reason Jinxsey is such a handful is she puts her nose into everything & won't stop until she's satisfied her curiousity!
- Find a good friend that understands you, encourages you & is someone that you trust. They will be your rock when times get tough.
It's obvious Jinxsey has that in Riley, regardless of their difference in size.
- If you need to take a break, DO IT! Take an hour, take a day, heck, take a month! We all need rest & relaxation or we will get burned out & nobody wants that!
Jinxsey obviously has this down pat.
I am learning from Jinxsey & hopefully NOW, she will leran from me! Can't we all cheers to that?
