Today was a great success!! I found a real estate agent that was perfect for the job. And it happened just like Dean said it would in the book. I've always trusted what Dean has said and figured it would work if you just did it. So when I started working pretty hard and following these steps to the 't', it worked! And my confidence level is absolutely through the roof! By the end of the week I will be putting in offers! So excited!

Rough day today. Making calls, not getting a lot of response. Leaving lots of messages because they are out of the office, not fitting the criteria. Especially on the realtor side of things.

But, I look at it this way: the more that I get no's, the closer I am to the yes's.

So here's to the no's so that we can get closer to the yes's!

Called several realtors today. Two got back to me and seem legit so we will see if they are A players.

Also called banks about refinancing. Need to call back 10 to follow up my messages. I asked questions that were on Dean's scripts. Had no clue what the bankers were saying but I faked it til I made!! And you know what? They totally took me as a serious investor (which I am) and it was actually a blast!! My confidence was boosted for sure.

Making progress one step at a time!!

My goal for now is to make going on DG once a day a habit. I'm starting off small with my goals. Once you are faithful in little, you will be able to be faithful in the larger things.

Quit job, moved home, and starting to make forward progress with the real estate.

Met with a contractor and his subs today. Seeing if they will be good for the power team. Sent letters to potential cash buyers...67 to be exact!

Tomorrow will be calling real estate agents and banks, posting ads on Craigslist, working on some bandit signs, and reviewing criteria for present buyers. Moving forward.

It's the small things that add up. I often was thinking I needed to get step 10 finished and completed, forgetting that of course its the 9 previous steps that get you there.

I'm excited because I'm actually taking action. No more talking or dreaming about it, but actually doing it.

I'll be honest, its a pretty scary thing saying you are going to reach for the stars when you are not sure you even have a rocket ship to get there. It takes time, energy, and a lot of uphill battling to get to where you want to be.

One day down the road I don't want to wake up to look in the mirror and find that I didn't try hard to see my dreams come true. It sounds a little childish, but I think we all need a little more child-like spirit in us. Children just believe that things are going to happen. They want something and therefore they ask and seek until they get it. They don't second guess themselves as much as those who are older do. They dream big and believe that anything is possible. I don't want to loose that part of me.
