What a convention!

I have just recently returned from the Annual Convention in Wisconsin Dells, held at the Kalahari. Hospitality suites aside, I'm glad I made the step to enter the realm of REALTORS. This year was informational, movitivational and gave many great tips on how to survive real estate in a softer market...and how to survive me, if I am to stay an agent.

Prior to convention I was wary as to a couple of speakers jumping on chairs to bring all sorts of enthusiams into our real estate lives...how would that help me? But then I got to thinking..suppose it was me being burnt out on that one buyer that we are now 40+ plus houses, and still want to see something better, or the sellers that we have to literally put into our therapy sessions to soothe the ups and downs of the market out of them until thier home sells.

All in all it was a great time to re-coup, re-align, and bring back great ideas. I have figured out that in our line of work it takes stamina to get through the busy and the slow times. There was a great quote used that I will try to live and stand by..."If you're going to be there, BE THERE!" Simply truth in thought he was right, we often find outselves being at our appointments, only thinking about what's next on our list. Each experience is unique and we should take it in stride.
