Okay well I guess you're over being asked the same old question "what's your investment strategy" but you can relax because I don't want to know that.
What I'd like to know is how do you deal with a business venture which involves someone you don't like?
Let's face it, to be successful in any business you have to deal with lots of different people, some whom you will enjoy doing business with, others whom you would prefer never to encounter again. But alas...they can (and depending on the nature of your business) be thrown in your path to success.
These types of people may (but are not limited) to:
Current (or previous) tenants who are turning to you for a reference check (and although they weren't bad, you're glad to see the back of them)
Previous PMs or REAs who you may have had a run in with, and is now selling that property you really want!
Grudges are a natural human reaction (for most lesser advanced souls) but is there a place for it in business???
Do or can you look beyond your petty differences with another in order to close a deal???
If so, that's great. If not, how can this impact your success???
As we already know, success is not always about an end result, it is very much a process driven machine, hence in situations where humans interact, emotions such as the ones described above can compromise success.
How do you make the best of a bad situation, for the betterment of your business???
