Over my years in this world I have found that the people who "make the most of it" are the ones we tend to envy, put on pedestals, and just plain like! They join teams, chase their dreams, volunteer, donate time and money, and they love it! They are the ones that "get" that life has more to it than TV and stress.
So how do we tap into that love and like them "make the most of it"?
By putting our hearts into it.
We have to find something in what we do that means something to us, that holds a special significance. You don't have to conquer the world at first grab, or be perfect while doing it. I think it is important to remember that it is one step at a time, life is not an over night change, over night change takes a life time to complete.
With that said, I approach life with the one step at a time mentality. I believe it is the possible absence of this mentality that has lead to us feeling over worked, stressed and unhappy.
One thing I decided to do as a Realtor was give back a little to the things I care about the most. I am happy and proud to report that currently, my brokerage RE/MAX professionals is the only true Miracle Office in all of Manitoba!!!!!! Miracle Office means that 100% of Realtors in the office have donated money to the Children's Miracle Network. This is an amazing accomplishment, and a true testament of the co-operation and dedication of the people in my office!
Above that I decided that I really wanted to foster my life long love of animals by donating a portion of my commission from every listing I have to the local Humane Society. This has been a slow start for me but I sincerely hope that the more listings I sell, the more money I make for them!
This is just part of me, putting my heart into it
