Time For Hoops?

I first got into the real estate business because I thought that I would have free time to keep up with all of my hobbies (basketball, volleyball, triathlon training, boating etc.). Boy was I wrong. I quickly learned that the Realtors who are successful in this business put in many more hours than a standard 9:00 to 5:00 job. If you include late night negotiations, early morning showings and Sunday Open Houses, the job can be all consuming.
Don’t get me wrong, I am not complaining, this business has been very good to me and I am able to provide my family with a good life even in this economy. I thank the real estate gods every day for that.
That being said, this schedule was not what I envisioned when I took my Board Exam! Today my boat sits at the dock covered in barnacles and if I can manage to squeeze in a game of hoops in the evening I have to duck out every few minutes to answer the phone.
My saving grace to all of the madness is that I live about 3 minutes away from my EWM office which gives me a little more time to be at home in the mornings and the ability to pop by the house and see my 2 year old daughter throughout the day. There is nothing that recharges me more than seeing her smiling face as I walk through the door.
