Blogs

I find that when I'm having a rough day or couple of days for that matter, that I need to let off some steam! Writing songs usually helps me do that, but I find that blogging also does that for me as well, especially if I'm stuck on a melody. So when I'm not in a 'musical' mood I turn to blogging because I don't have to rhyme, think of the melody or music and I don't have to get too deep. I just need to let off a little steam, that's all, just get if off my chest!

It's been a while since my last blog. Mainly because I've been distracted by so much turmoil going on all around me. Which inspired me to write about it... LOL!

Although I didn’t say HALF of what I meant to on the call with Dean Tuesday night (because I was so doggone nervous! ), I realized I could add to it here.
There have been a lot of questions this week about Dean’s Success Academy/Mentorship Program, both in the forums and PMs. Thought I'd post a little about it.

My REI journey has been a long hard road. I've had my ups and downs like everyone else. Along my journey I've acquired specialized knowledge that has given me the privilege to help others along the way. Every day I work through my fears and challenges brings me one step closer to achieving my goal of becoming financially free. Although I keep my vision of that future in my head and reminders of all over my walls, I still have to remind myself to count my blessings each day.

Everyday, whether I post or not, I read the post in the forums and I think....there are so many NEW people joining us everyday but do they realize the REAL opportunity that is knocking.

Its not everyday that you get to join a community like DG.com or much of anywhere else for that matter, and be able to talk with, get advice and learn from hundreds of others - ALL pursuing the same dream. Financial independence, security, log-term cash flow and peace of mind.

My heart just ached today for several people that have responded to our ad from this week. It took only 2 days to rent out the 3/2 we have ready for rent. I've had several calls from people in desperate situations. I just got off the phone with a woman who's daughter just lost her house due to foreclosure. We talked for like 1/2 hour. I just listened and sympathized. Unfortunately I do not have another house open right now. I asked if she had tried to sell. The mom said "No, because the lender had made it sound like they were going to work with us.
