Instability
I think about the definition of instability, how it always denotes a negative meaning, in both personalities, jobs, and life in general. I have been realizing lately, however, that there really is value in it.
As a Realtor, my job could easily be the definition of instability at work, especially in this economy. Many of my clients have been pursuing foreclosures, and recently about one quarter of all those on the market have been littered with liens. I have also seen clients loose their jobs or get relocated while we were under contract, causing their financing to fall through.
I think because of this instability, I have grown stronger, both in the way I live my life and in the way I run my business. Instability forces growth, but I also think it creates a unique sense of excitement. Each day is unique and filled with the opportunity for stress and worry, but with each new crazy situation, I get two new leads. At the end of every day I can’t help but say that God is good.
