How to Overcome Challenges as an Agent
Work-life Balance
As an agent, it can be difficult to overcome challenges without having a solid work-life balance. It is important to structure your day around a set time frame. Without blocking time, it is easy to continue working in your personal time. Taking this time is important for reducing your stress levels and allowing yourself to decompress.
If you do not take care of yourself, it is easy to burn out which can cause you to be less productive. To-do and priority lists can also help you set up work days. If you have a personal priority that sits high on your list that week, maybe you need to take a day off to be sure that you can accomplish it. It’s all about making time for not only work, but also for yourself and your family. At Mark Spain Real Estate, we utilize shared calendars to ensure we are blocking time for work and for our personal lives. This allows everyone around us to plan, strategize, and work efficiently.
