Same Me, Different Day
I figured out who I was a long time ago. I’m still that person today, and I’ll be long after the latest fad has its day and slips back into obscurity.
And guess what? I make no apologies for it.
When I say that, some people tell me it sounds like a threat.
Nope — it’s a promise.
See, some folks treat life like a personality buffet — today it’s crystal-aligned yoga, tomorrow it’s moon water and a journal full of intentions they forget by Friday.
You can’t keep up with that kind of evolution unless you’re billing by the hour — or selling sage in bulk.
Me? I’m simple.
Okay, maybe not that simple — but still just me.
Same jeans, same playlist, same sense of humor that’s probably cost me a few friends, some family members, and maybe even one or two clients.
I’m consistent — like Friday afternoon traffic and Waffle House coffee.
Don’t get me wrong — growth is fine. We all need to learn, change, evolve.
But your essence — that core part that laughs too loud, loves too hard, and calls it like you see it — that part needs to stay put.
That’s your foundation.
You don’t go home and start knocking down load-bearing walls just because HGTV insists open-concept is the way to go. And you sure don’t start tearing out the pillars of who you are every time the latest self-help guru claims to have found the path to enlightenment.
People ask, “Haven’t you changed over the years?”
Oh, hell yeah.
I’ve got more bills, fewer hair follicles, and a fuse shorter than a Dollar Tree extension cord — cheap, hot, and ready to blow.
But deep down? Still me.
Still the same sarcastic optimist who believes in hard work, good timing, and second chances — usually in that order.
Even in my real estate world, the changes come faster than a Netflix plot twist.
Do I change with it? Sure.
There’s more tech, more marketing, and a whole lot of young’uns trying to ride that fast train to “easy money.” (They think.)
I adapt. I learn. And in the end, I use what works.
For me, technology is helpful — but what really works?
Customer service.
Being present.
Being honest — sometimes too honest for my own good.
And above all, being the advocate that’s needed.
Because when the noise dies down and the lights go out, all that’s left is who you really are.
And if you’ve done it right, that person won’t need an update, a filter, or a rebrand.
Change all you want — just don’t start calling your dog your “wellness partner.”
Let the world spin itself dizzy.
Because when the dust settles, I’ll still be standing right where I was — strong branches, stronger roots, and a few more stories to tell.
Some folks chase change.
I’m just after authenticity — that, and the occasional breakfast special.
Life’s too short for filters — and it’s funnier when you don’t have one. That’s The Condition — mine, anyway.
