Expecting Change

Change is a part of life. We often do not know the exact details such as; what it will be, when it will happen or how it will happen. However, we should expect that things will occur in life contrary to what we are used to. This fact is all too evident during this time. The pandemic that we are currently facing has changed our way of living; possibly forever. Another reason why change should be anticipated is because it is supposed to, at some periods in life, also be planned. Deliberate change can include things such as having a child, moving to another city or changing jobs. While every change cannot be planned or predicted we can all have a reasonable expectation of it occurring.

Dealing with Change

Addressing changes in life, directly, can determine the end result. We can sometimes allow changes to overwhelm us, or permit it to be debilitating. It leads to life’s situations taking control instead of us being in control. There are moments where we must take breaks, or adjust in order to deal with change; especially if that change is unexpected or negative. However, it is important to not let those moments last longer than necessary. Dwelling on what cannot be done takes us further from what can be done. Tap into your inner strength and cheerleader, and handle the situation. Do not let change govern you!

Growing from Change

Change should ignite growth. Whether good or bad, planned or not, there should be a transformation. While this transformation may not start off positively all the time, we can turn it into something worthwhile. Some positive effects of change are; getting better at a skill, learning something completely new, or becoming an inspiration to others. I am always amazed by the stories of homeless persons who become multi-millionaires through hard work. I am also inspired by the person who has suffered great loss, but turns it into motivation for themselves and others. Every time there is a change in life we can each take a second to think on how we can grow from it. It may be easier said than done but like the saying goes “nothing beats a failure but a try’.

These points can be used by everyone in different situations. I would like to especially encourage those who started or prepared to start their real estate journeys before this pandemic. Many of you are wondering if you should still pursue your dreams of ownership at his time. Keep going because this pandemic is the first wave of change and post-pandemic will be another wave. Your ability to stay active in the market will play a major part in you achieving your real estate goals this year. This may be as simple as viewing properties online or having discussions about your options. Always remember that I am here to assist, so schedule a free consultation and let’s chat.
