Hit the Refresh Button in your life!

By
Real Estate Agent with Turning Point Real Estate Inc.

Isn't it ironic?  Just when life trips you up, falls on top of you, and jumps up and down a time or two.... It happens.  Something or someone seems to hit the refresh button and everything starts to seem possible again.

Pretty cheesy I know, but I have had an amazing awakening in my life in the last 2 weeks.  I have experienced a bit of a "perfect storm" of things that have hit me squarely in the heart, and as many of you can appreciate these days, also in the wallet.  They are things that really are of no relevance to blog nation by definition, but in theory, are experienced daily by all of us with our own unique culmination of difficulties and pitfalls.  Form and reason simply don't matter. 

What does matter is how we choose to let these things affect us.  Do we let them consume us or do we choose to take ownership and simply chart a new course?  I can tell you my first week was full of shock and disappointment.  I couldn't eat or sleep.  I couldn't see my life being lived in any other way.

But something happened.  Something took over inside of me and I accepted what was happening.  I started thinking about all of the good things that surrounded me and all of the possibilities that life offers.  It was obvious that there are many roads.  I found that the pinhole ray of light I could see, I was now prying open with a crowbar.  Pretty soon, I found myself happy, alert, and re-energized again.  I started making decisions on things I have dwelled on for years.  I went back to the basics in Real Estate and started picking up clients left and right out of thin air.  Good things were finding their way to me. 

 I have spent the last few years really trying to figure out what happened to my clarity.  In a matter of days it reappeared as if someone had just re-booted me....and I can't imagine how I lived my life without it. 

 May peace and prosperity fill your life! Good things in Real Estate are right around the corner!

You can find me working hard selling great homes in Denver.  It's easier if you just find me on my website at www.turn2homes.com.

Hi Darren, I believe you are right, good things are right around the corner for those of us who stick with it.  Things are much better when we get refreshed, even though it hurts at times.  Good luck.
