From one Newbie to another… Posted by Sharon Nunley of OH on 2/7/07 9:41pm Msg #174608
Although I have been a signing agent for a short time, it has been a very successful "short time" for me. Success does not come easy, however. Many, many hours (ask my husband and son!) have been invested in equipping myself with the knowledge to make my career work for me. One must have a passion for whatever one's career choice is. A passion will motivate you to seek every given opportunity to gather as much knowledge as possible to make you successful.
After pouring over many books, websites, blogs, etc, I have gained a wealth of knowledge that cannot be taken away from me. I have gleaned knowledge from those who have been in business much longer than I, and I appreciate and respect their knowledge and their willingness to share.
Following this website has taught me a very valuable lesson; “do not wait for someone to hand you a fish. LEARN to fish!” And that, dear newbie, is the basis of true success. Knowledge builds confidence and confidence brings business. Business gives success and success is very rewarding.
Many thanks to the notaries who have and are willing to help us who are just beginning, but I warn you, my newbie friends, these notaries only help those who help themselves!
So…as I step down from my soapbox remember this. Your success will ultimately depend upon you. Be strong in your passion and your dedication, believe in yourself and enjoy what you do, and you will be fine.
