Here I sit preparing and anxiously waiting for my first National Association of Realtors Conference in my hotel in Orlando, FL after awaking in a "Twitter-like" state. I think I have officially reached Social Media overload- I was dreaming in Twitter! I woke up with my heart beating fast and arrhythmic, my breath shallow, and head in a blur after being bombarded and almost attacked in my sleep my short little blurps of information flying at me in the forms of @ and + signs. I have learned that Twittering right up to bed time should never replace reading a traditional book!
As a former high school Biology teacher of 8 years, I consider myself a life-long proponent of education, a life student, an information junkie per say. I have been in Real Estate for about 1 1/2 years and have taken my new career by storm grasping and tackling any information that I can find. Lately, I have been spending countless hours reading about all the social media groups and blogging practices and trying to familiarize myself with all the different platforms that are out there in attempts to better connect to and serve clients and other professionals in my field.
Last night my Real Estate partner and I sat in our hotel rooms- lap tops out- and were trying to find our best schedule for the NAR conference. There is SOOO much going on and we are terrified we are going to miss something essential- we have divided the programs up and are trying to schedule ourselves in two places at once- and because there are two of us it is possible- just one of the many benefits of working with a Real Estate Partner.
Now I am awake and still a-twittering, even more so after filling up with some good coffee, and heading out for my first conference. I hope my dreams come true and return filled to the brim with new knowledge!
