Dam Patience
Recently friend and East Valley Arizona real estate expert Brian England wrote a post about referrals. In his post, he was hopeful that more would be coming his way.
After commenting, I continued to think about it. And about some of the foundations of real estate. Marketing. Networking. All sorts of activity. Some of it new lead generating as well as staying connected in one form or another.
The word and concept of "foundation" kept entering my thoughts. Our business infrastructure is one of those basics. I even used a reference to levees in my comment to Brian.
Feelings of "hurry up and wait" can play a part. We may hear the term quick response and then ask "how quick?" Ah, yes patience.
My mind wandered and veered towards some quotes. I found many but I like these three:
Have patience with all things, But, first of all with yourself
Saint Francis de Sales
Patience is a virtue, and I am learning patience. It's a tough lesson.
Elon Musk
Patience and perseverance
have a magical effect
before
which difficulties disappear
and obstacles vanish.
John Quincy Adams
Although former altar boy Brian might not use the word "damn" it is definitely part of my vocabulary so out of respect for him, I thought about the effectiveness of dams when it comes to patience.
The knowledge of homonyms can be as useful as it is fun. HaHa, As for dams, like levees they are known as stable. Sure of their eventual effectiveness.
Hence the title of this post.
Not Damn Patience which might "work" for me but Dam Patience. Patience can certainly "pay off".
