| As I was walking to my office this morning, after I had parked my car and was headed to the crosswalk, out of nowhere this huge out-of-control truck careens around a blind corner. Then right in the middle of the chaos, the strangest thing happens. A huge box full of groceries bounces out of the back of the truck and lands almost perfectly at my feet. As I looked down the street at the runaway truck, I realized the driver had no clue what just happened and wasn’t coming back. Interestingly, the street was full of a lot of people and everyone just stopped and looked at me, waiting to see what I would do next. It was at that moment that a woman shouted out “Looks like you got manna from heaven!” We both had a good chuckle, I picked up the box and headed on my way to work. Do you know what manna from heaven is? In the Old Testament, it was the food that God supplied Moses and the Israelites as they wandered through the desert for 40 years. It was an amazing gift from God given to his chosen people in their time of desperate need. But these special unexpected gifts from God are not just part of ancient history. They continue to happen every day. In real estate, it might be a contact, a resource, a referral, or even a much needed word of encouragement from a friend or coach. It’s that one thing you just happened to need at that exact moment to keep you moving forward. But are you paying attention? Are you aware of the gifts God is bestowing upon you? Or are you blinded by the struggle – distracted from the resources and gifts right in front of your nose? The market shift has been rough for a lot of investors, brokers, and agents. Low inventory, tight margins, and high interest rates have made real estate feel like a bit of a living hell for some. But there is plenty of opportunity for those who are able (and willing) to recognize the “manna” being sent to them. Is probate “manna from Heaven”? Might be. It’s up to you. By the way, my wife made some amazing guacamole with avocados that were in the box, and the team in the office and I are enjoying it right now.
