The weather here has just been amazing the last few weeks. I've been tearing up the streets door knocking around town. It's pretty fun. Get's a little dull when nobody is home.
So, I've been avoiding working in a part of town that had some really grim stuff happen last year. We're talking unsolved double murder in an affluent mid-town neighborhood.
So, there I am door knocking in this neighborhood. One of the only known facts from the double murder a little more than a year ago was that a person was seen approaching the front door to the house earlier in the day.
I was working in this neighborhood a good solid 3 hours. It all went well enough. I even talked briefly with one neighbor who was retired from a competing insurance company.
The pall cast from this grim event in the neighborhoods recent history was really something to experience.
The thing I took away from this experience is that we really do meet these people where they stand today. It might be a great day in their life or it might be the worst of the lot.
Step up to the plate and do the best job you know how. You can't expect to succeed by backing down from the challenges.
