I just put my head down and bawled like a baby

As a new agent I have not the means of paying for the luxury of an Assistant.

I find the paperwork, calls, keeping in touch with my clients, reading, research overwhelming most days.  I have never worked so hard in my life since getting my license in 06.  Some days I just go in a trance staring at the work to be done.

Then there is the tremendous guilt for hot having sold all but one of my listings.  I feel like I am drowning.  When I do take a day off I feel guilty that I am not doing more to sell my listings.

Some of my clients are just plain crabby, those are the ones who want 4 prices for their properties. 

Michigan is in such a poor state. With no sales, dues, gas money, ferry tickets to go the the office, supplies some days this past year I have just put my head down on my desk and bawled like a baby.  I am not good at having a positive attitude.
