A New Year With New Challenges!

By
Education & Training

Already the new year is off to a great start.  If you're an agent contemplating your next move to quit I recommend you do as I do when it looks like it's time to throw in the towel.  Wait 24hours, get some sleep, see a movie, take a trip, go to lunch with someone you can't stand to be around, go to a restaurant you've never been in or a new food group, and even better yet, find someone to help - take $50.00 and go to an orphanage or a nursing home, a cancer center, make a donation.  I once visited a assisted living home and was greeted by 10 wheel chaired old people wanting to talk to a living person.  When I finally got out of the nursing home, I had forgotten my problems all together,  and I set out to start again and continue on.

Good advice.  Just when we think it's bad take a look around.  I was slow the last three months of the year.  Now I am currently working on three deals.  Things look good a this time.

I think lots of us listened to the media too much at the end of the year and lost our focus. I know I did but I am busy too now and motivated.

Good medicine. When I get in a funk, I think about having to get up at 6 AM to go to work and punch a clock.  That usually gets me going.
