If you know me personally or if you have been following my blog posts, you surely know by now that I rarely sit on my laurels, and I constantly seek change, excitment, fun and that I loathe boredom and sameness and the ordinary. I crave challenges and newness and that’s what this blog is about. This is a stream of conciousness about having ants in my pants.
I really love my job. I especially love getting houses ready to sell and the high I get when I begin marketing and taking and editing the photos and excitement of my phone blowing up and offers rolling in. I seriously love that. My heart races, I get an endorphin blast. It literally gives me a high. I have one and maybe two listings coming on the horizon that I actually dream about. I mean I have the entire marketing blitz planning in my head. I have taken all the pictures in my head. Every angle. I write real estate blurbs for the MLS in my brain while I’m falling asleep. I am good at listing and selling houses. Almost anyone can show houses to buyers and help them buy one. NOT everyone is good at listing, marketing and SELLING houses. This is where I shine and I’m not shy about it. Give me any house and I’ll figure out how to make it the RIGHT kind of appealing and I’ll get it sold.
Sometimes though it doesn’t feel like enough. There’s got to be something else upwards and onwards in my career. Problem with Real Estate is that there’s not many options. I will never, ever leave my Brokerage. That’s not an option for me. The Hanna family is near and dear to my heart and they have my undying loyalty. But I want more. What more do I want? I honestly don’t know. Do I want a team? Do I want to be in managment? Do I want to be a mentor? Maybe yes to all. Maybe no to all. In a perfect world I’d co-manage an office with someone else and split the duties but I’d never leave the Lebo office because it’s my home literally and figuratively. But then I think about that and it would be crazy because I’m really good at my job, and really successful. I mean I do as well as some TEAMS and I have 4 kids from ages 7-21. The sky is the limit as far as my potenial now as they are getting older and needing me less. I know that. But do I want to sell real estate for the rest of my life? Financially it would be the smart thing to do I’m sure, but I’m not a greedy person and I don’t NEED to reach the sky. I just want to be happy and fulfilled. Is that too much to ask????
Maybe it’s time to go see another psychic!
