No one ever changed the world without first being labeled a ‘troublemaker.’ – Scott McLeod
It’s a dangerous thing when you sacrifice parts of who you are in order to fit the label that society has placed on you and those like you. For instance, say the word “Realtor” and there is a definite picture that comes to mind. One that is used to define me even if I am nothing like those who proudly wear that label.
For instance, I am very outspoken about my love and pursuit of the Arts and a lot of people don’t understand why I would talk about Theater and Real Estate together. They believe it reflects poorly on me as someone who makes a living in Real Estate to talk about my TRUE passion, as if Real Estate should be the only thing I think about.
Most people want me to just be a Realtor, 24/7. That is what would make the masses comfortable. A neat and tidy box to put me in. But I will not be limited or defined by someone else’s perception of who I am. I will always be Geoff Desiato. Entrepreneur, Actor, Musician, Hot Mess. And that’s fine by me.
