Some folks feel just plain
important and sit just that little bit “higher” than many others when they tool
around in big name, brand name, luxury cars – sometimes speeding and otherwise
showing off.There are more prestigious vehicle makes on the roads now than ever
before – zowie…the monthly payments must be astounding. Even to lease is a big
ticket item. Different strokes for different folks.
Fashionwise as well, everyone
has their own style – sometimes it is more flamboyant or attention-getting than
another person might choose, but nonetheless, we are all individuals. Dressing
for success can also be dressing with flair, as long as it’s in good taste.
Another significant
manifestation of “having arrived” may be observed in how supervisors manage
their staff. Some folks swagger, some act
totally rigid, and some look at others either through their eyebrows, over the
rim of half-glasses, or down their noses. Ah, the grandeur of positioning
oneself “up there”!
In my profession as a
REALTOR® one of the greatest pleasures is making contact and building a
business relationship with both prospective Buyers and Sellers; striving to
earn their trust; thus turning them into
clients who will recommend my services without hesitation. My disposition is
such that I feel comfortable and seem to interact well with everyone… Colleagues have been heard now and then to
mutter about “that so-and-so, who does he think he is…..grrr, grrr, grrr”,
after an unwieldy conversation.
Hail to the high-end
achievers who have retained a sense of mortality. It’s a pleasure to share the
lineup in the grocery store with you on Friday nights!
A Mentor of mine said on more
than one occasion that everyone should “be nice to the people you meet on the
way up because they’re the same ones you’ll meet on the way down.”
