Back in July I went to a DG Seminar and you can read about my experience in my previous blog.

For one reason and then another I put the stuff aside and started doing other things. That's not the complete truth though. I was overwhelmed with my own negativity - my own lack of confidence and a little, well placed, family negativity.

All of those good things that other people experienced were just that - what "other people" experienced. I was convinced that those others were somehow special and different from me and thus able to do the whole "Real Estate Thing".

I had never considered real estate as a source of income. My father in law, used real estate as a career, as had a couple of friends - but it always seemed like a mysterious jumble of interest rates and math wizardry.

I had pursued an education in the healthcare field and became a Podiatrist - a very unhappy one and a a financially unsuccessful one to boot!

On July 14, I was invited by some friends to attend a Dean Graziosi introductory seminar at a local hotel conference room. I was very skeptical, having heard the "Naysayer" stories about people losing their shirts trying to do the "Real Estate Thing". But after some discussion with the friends that invited me and with the presenters, I decided to give this concept a further look.
