Off Your Ass and On Your Feet!

Very rarely in life do you find things of value, that just appear without you taking action. Whether you want a certain outcome, income, a specified level of security/protection, job, life partner, domicile (fancy word for house),or overall mood you're going to have to take the appropriate actions.
Sedentary people who live the mantra "good things come to those who wait" don't realize those "good things" are the crumbs and leftovers, left behind by those who got off their ass to achieve great things. "Success is your duty, obligation,and responsibility."- Grant Cardone (if you're reading this and don't know who he is fix it now... I'll wait.)
For those that had to look up the creator of that amazing quote welcome back, (and you're welcome) for the rest of you once you commit to that as your new mantra you'll experience life at levels you never even knew possible before (hell maybe even 10x levels.)

Bootleg Real Estate Investing Must Go

Bootleg Real Estate Investing Must Go

     I've seen enough of this crap and hopefully the rest of the actual real estate professionals will take a stand and speak up also! Real estate investing forums are great when used correctly, but the "newbie investors" are starting to become the many. I have no problem with new people getting into the business the right way or even cheaply. The issue I have is people hear "take action" and jump directly into ruining lives and half-assed running a business! Newsflash if you don't know the very basic details to your business you can't run one!
     The way people are starting a business now is ridiculous! They hear a basic overview of what many of us do & see the income/lifestyles we get to live and then decide they're one of us! It's like eating at a Burger King and then going to the grocery store buying some hamburger, hamburger buns, a bag of French fries, paper plates, and declaring yourself a restauranter! Sounds silly right? One it is silly and two sadly that $25 is more than most people want to put into their new real estate business.
     If you're going to get into this wonderful business don't go it alone on advice from some under moderated forum. At least find someone reputable to talk to that can help guide your path. If someone is telling you to advertise another person's deals without expressed written permission don't listen to them! They're the exact type of dumbass you need to avoid! (<<< that's for Nasar) Please do not promise people in dire financial  situations that you can help them if you don't know what you are doing from start to finish! The thing that most people do not realize is "promised money" is "spent money" to average people.
     I'll close with this get guidance, marketing, marketing and more marketing, and then close deals & get paid often!

It Is As Simple As Understanding Your Goals

"SETTING GOALS IS ONE OF THE FEW KEYS TO SUCCESS"

     That quote or statement is uttered often. Not because it is particularly catchy, but because it is believed to be absolutely true. Guess what... It is only partially true!
     In helping the people I mentor (let alone the beginners I coach & yes there is a difference) one of the commonalities between all of them is that after they tell me their goals I find out that they don't truly understand them. Keep in mind not just anyone is subject to taking my time so these are all fairly sharp ladies and gentlemen. Yet not even they have thought out what they mean when they say "I want to make a million dollars." The second I ask "what do you really mean by a million dollars?" we hit the blank stare faze... You have to clearly define and understand something like an income goal.
Do you want a million dollar business? "What is your salary out of this?"
Do you want to personally make a million dollars? "What about taxes?"
Do you want to want to make a million dollars after taxes? "What about your expenses?" Or Do you want to have a million dollars in cash? "This removes all doubt it is something clear and decisive"
So when you are setting goals make sure you know what you really want and do not end up disappointed when you achieve it!
