I was recently asked what
quality I have that I felt most attributed to my career. My response was easy,
it’s my ability to stick with it. I have considered throwing in the
towel on a project many times, but my drive to
see things through always wins out.
At this point in my career, I know that any good deal dies ten deaths before it comes to life. For instance, our
Hampton Inn & Suites by Hilton-Atlanta Perimeter
Dunwoody nearly never got off the ground.
However, the hotel celebrated its one-year
anniversary this month and today it ranks #2 out of 174 hotels in Atlanta on
TripAdvisor.
While it wasn’t always easy
for me to accept the lengthy delays, I did gain another valuable quality: patience. Deals won’t always come to fruition in your time frame, but they will when the time is right.
Do your research, involve
your team of experts, don’t take rejection personally, practice patience and if
you believe in the project, stick with it!
