People who recover from hardship begin by believing they can overcome their difficulties. It's unlikely that you'll discover a means to succeed if you feel hopeless and helpless. To survive challenging situations, you must have self-confidence and a strong belief in yourself and what you are capable of.
Matt Hermes, one of Atlanta's most sought-after and award-winning realtors, shares how he overcomes hardship after losing nearly everything and falling to alcoholism. Matt used his experience to rebuild his family and career while also providing excellent value to his clients as a means of repaying his second opportunity.
