My Son Caught His First Catfish – A Lesson in the Important Things

Cabo Frio My husband took my oldest son fishing and camping this weekend, and I had an open house.

 

Fortunately, it was an open house with lots of activity.  In the middle of showing a couple through the house, my phone started to ring with my husband’s tone.  He knew I was in the middle of an open house, and I wondered why he would call so I headed down to my phone.

 

“You’re son really wants to talk to you.”  My little boy got on the phone, and says, “I just caught my first edible fish.  It’s a catfish, and it’s one of my happiest moments, and I wanted to share it with you!”

 

The Important Things

 

How happy was I that I took this phone call?  Sure, work is important, and I spend a lot of time taking care of my clients.  Still, it’s important to take time for your family too, and those three minutes were pricess to me and my son.

 

So, I will continue to take care of my clients, and I can still take time for my family too.  Clients are people too.  They know I’m not just an agent.  That doesn’t mean I don’t take great care of them.  Am I a 24/7 agent? I’m not, and don’t believe it’s necessary to be the right choice for my clients.

 

Do you take time for the important things?
