Don’t Ever Give Up!!
I have this picture in my office hanging on my coark board for years of a Frog attempting to be swallowed by a Bird and as the Frog is half way in the Birds mouth the Frog has his hands wrapped tightly around the Birds neck not allowing the Bird to eat and/or swallow him. And at the top it states, Don’t Ever Give Up!
The point is obvious, it does not matter what situation you are facing or what obstacles you have to overcome…DO NOT EVER GIVE UP!! Once you adopt this mindset into your everyday life and career, no matter what happens you are a winner. For example….I was golfing yesterday and had one of those holes where I shanked my drive into trees and had to play my provisional ball which I sliced into a pond and dropped hitting my 6th shot from 127 yards and holed it out for a Bogey…the best Bogey I ever had. I could have easily given up after I knocked it in the water.
It is very easy to give up…however, success will not find those that give up.
Talk about timely! Being in the business of assisting individuals with buying and selling homes is tough right now. You words about never giving-up have inspired me.
Thanks,
Don
This is a tough time for agents working with sellers, but don’t let fear dictate your work effort! The only things you can control are your own actions each day!
Hello, you are training me at open doors and I was checking out your website; as you advised. I would love to start the coaching sessions as soon as possible. Im trying this out for a month and would like to know if this is worth continuing next month. I am very interested in how to get propspects, as we are in a difficult market. Please email me.
This is extremely true. There is never a time for quitting or giving up. I believe that. Thank you for reminding me.
DON - Always glad to help
LINDA - Fear enhances negativity and negativity will consume and destroy you if permitted
STEPHANIE - Keep something in mind we are not in a difficult market, simply a different market, a more normal market. Before you may have contacted 50 people for an appointment now it is 100. Hopefully your Coach has explained this to you.

If you would like to hear the greatest speech ever given (IMO) about never giving up, go to youtube.com and search for Jim Valvano–Espy speech. Prior to delivering it, he had been bedridden for days and those who were close to him still don’t know how he was able to stand behind the podium and speak for ten minutes. Jimmy’s body lost his battle with cancer just a few weeks later.
