Started a new book today as I need to stop worrying so much and get my focus back. "How to stop worrying and start living" by Dale Carnegie. It says to start a diary in it so I figured I would just do it on here since I kind of started one already. Sorry if it bores you folks but I will try to keep it mostly on real estate, as I flip houses on a daily basis just doing the construction side of it at the moment. Working on getting my mind set right as I have a pretty good knowledge for a new comer on real estate and Dean's strategies just had some big set backs lately mentally and financially.

My grandmother past away today. She has lived 90 wonderful years and has told me numerous times in the past she wanted to die at 90. We went ziplining in Mexico last year. She was tubing behind our boat the year before. She is one of the most influential people in my life. We definitly clicked more than any other members of my family. This has been by far the most emotional month of my life. I've been killed financially and emotionally. There is one way to go from here. Cant wait to start wholesaling. I have more resources than most and a good knowledge of what to do. Just not sure now if I should put out my signs tomorrow as I had planned...

Stayed late on the house I was working on flipping because I have to stay home with my son tomorrow as he got pink eye today. The investor stopped by and got to talk to him for awhile. He buys a house a week and doesn't care what as long as it makes him money. Got home made some signs and emailed my real estate agent letting him know I'm ready to make offers on the properties we have filetered out of the mls. Ready to whole sale a house this weekend! Or atleast sometime soon. I hope this new mindset stays!!!!!

Recently lost 25k in a business venture gone wrong after I did my boots on the ground training. Now I'm in a lot of debt and trying to save everything Ive earned in my life to this point, including my kids. The good news is I have a vast knowledge on flipping which I'm doing for other people right now and I have a couple of solid buyers. The bad news is my mindset is pretty shot right now and I need to snap out of it and start hitting the real estate business hard. I've read a couple of Deans books in the past few months and will continue to read more of them. I watched the last two years of the edge and learned a lot. Really need to get my mindset back on the right track after my recent failure. Any feedback from dgers would be great on where to go to next.
