Even A Dragon Fly Needs To Take A Break Now And Then

By
Real Estate Agent with Integrity Real Estate Group

Resting For a Moment

 

It seems most Realtors® are on the go 7 days a week without taking a break.  Yet almost any creature in nature takes a break now and then to rest.  Today I took a break with my daughter to try out a new camera.  We walked for miles in Mason Neck State Park and along the shores of Belmont Bay snapping plenty of photos along the way.  This is one of the dragonflies we found who agreed with us that a break from being on the go now and then is a good thing.

That's great advice. As Realtors we are constantly on the go, working on marketing and being available to clients. It's important to remember to fill up that spiritual and emotional reserve.

Dagmar-though it took a few years to understand it, I make breaks a regular part of my work week now.  If we don't have any energy our clients will know it and how does that best serve them?

Cindy - I always say a Realtor job is never done - you guys work so hard! I'm so glad you took some time with your daughter and you did a great job capturing this dragon fly! Whenever you bring your camera, you have a tendency to look around you more - it a great thing because you see so many things you otherwise would miss.

Kristine-taking a few hours to enjoy wandering in one of our area parks is always a treat.  The camera sharpens the eye and of course allows you to zoom in and get the details on one of natures little miracles.

Cindy, we took a 3 day break over the 4th of July.  Sure was nice, but the whole week was busy.  Nice to see you took some time off as well.

Kay-managed to take yesterday off (for the most part) but today it was back out with two different sets of clients.  Hot and tired but the paycheck at the end is always worth it.
