I met a new friend today. Her name is Myra. She called me to ask some questions she had involving real estate. I was happy to assist her, but I was even happier when she offered to assist me.
She had found my number because she had visited a popular real estate website and I had answered a question. She told me she was intrigued enough to research my other online answers and blogs. What she found made her feel comfortable enough to call me and ask questions and share personal information. I was humbled by the fact she searched for me and shared so freely. What blew me away was her request for me to mail her several business cards so she could recommend me to her sphere of influence.
From reading some postings I had made and one single telephone conversation with me, she was willing to put my name next to hers with her friends and co-workers.
Boy, do I consider that to be an honor! This is not the first time this has happened, nor do I expect it to be the last, but I’m always in awe of the impact I can have by being willing to share my education and expertise with people. I live by the adage, “you’re only a stranger because I haven’t met you yet”.
I hope what I shared was helpful to Myra, because what she shared was very helpful to me. It’s my desire to educate and enlighten all who read what I write. If I can ever be of service to you, or people you care about, don’t hesitate to contact me and give me the opportunity to serve you. I would be honored.
