You already know Dean is a multi-talented guy, but a magician of all things? Do you think he can do magic?
Well, I'm not going to give it away here, but I will tell you this...he's got a pretty cool "trick" to share with you this week.
Now I'm pretty sure none of the top acts in Vegas are going to be worried about Dean's trick, I guarantee it'll be better for you than watching a elephant disappear onstage. If this is not making any sense, it's okay...watch the blog and everything will be crystal clear. No smoke and mirrors, I promise!
We had another great training call take place on Tuesday, September 14th 2010 at 9:00PM Eastern.
On this conference call students got answers to some important questions about investing that are being asked on this site.

Bertha
Thank You Dean

Fact and Realty
Thanks Dean for another weekly blog. I truly believe in the words echoed in this week's blog. I have experienced it, when I communicated my new career intentions to my family and friends. They believe it is a hoax and cannot happen. I have decided to just do what I have to and say nothing about it.
Sandra
Thanks Dean
As always another great blog, Really it all boils down to one thing is my glass half full or half empty, Mine is always half full no matter what is going on in my life. And yes I do want to run with positive people. Thanks for all you do and give back.

Great Words
Thank you Dean! I totally agree and I try to associate with people who think positive.
Learning that mindset thing
Hi Dean,
I didn't get a message in on last Tuesdays conference call but we were there listening and it was an excellent call. I just keep listening to you and reading the DG Website and my confidence is coming back. I want to be as confident as you. It does matter who you listen to, it can make or brake you. It is still our choice on our mindset.
We are making progress everyday and close to doing some birddog deals. I am totally content with the decisions I've made in getting into real estate investing. Thank you for all you give. Have a successful week.
This video nailed it
This is so true. I wanted to do Real Estate Investing because of Dean's program, but my motivation went down when I told my parents, friends, and co worker that this was impossible. Watching this video made sense and that I was taking advice the detrimental way. Choosing advice from anyone does not lead to your success unless that person has succeeded! Thank you Dean!
dean
thanks again for another great blog.
sometimes i'm so busy i have to decide where minutes are best spent,but i don't have to second guess when it comes to your blogs.
the only comment i can say about this one is...
SO TRUE.have a great week everyone and keep moving forward,rob
Been Struggling
With that my whole life. My Father told me I'm not white and would never make it as an entertainer. Well, I worked as an entertainer in the deep south for over 10 years. Being an Asian American/Pacific Islander from Hawaii. I had my own mind and my Mom would tell me I could do anything if my heart and soul wanted it badly enough. My Mother was one of three women who attended The University of Hawaii in the '30s. The story get's longer involving the purchase and loss of a condo due to my listening to family that discouraged my plans of flipping that condo and eventually I lost it to the very same person. That however is not the comment. What I want to impart in this comment is that, no offense to you but, you remind me of my Mother. Only encouragement and I appreciate it very much. Reading your book, the first one, and watching your Videos has taken me from car less, to owning two classic cars worth far more than what I paid and am now looking at a bank owned condo in the same complex that I previously had lost, mentioned above, asking is $28,000 appraised at $75,000 and I haven't even finished your book yet. THANKS for BEING YOU!
Forever, Your Friend,
Daryl
Thanks again Dean
How did you know what I was thinking? ha! ha!
Thanks for the motivation; I needed it. Being around people with a negative attitude is SO depressing!!
I agree with Randy; my glass is half full (and I aim to fill it)!
Right on target as usual, Dean
I NEVER take advice from unqualified people. I guess that's how I ended up here.![Eye-wink Eye-wink](http://mail.deangraziosi.com/modules/smileys/packs/example/wink.png)
I tend to do my homework on something that I want to do. Then I make up my own mind on whether or not I want to do it. Once I've decided what I want, I seek knowledge and advice from positive, helpful people that know what they're talking about. (They have to be a combination of all 3.)
I was probably in my teens when I discovered that I have to SHOW people what I'm doing, rather than try to TELL them about my ideas. (Totally agree with SanBern's comment.)
When you have a keen desire to do something truly worthwhile - never let anyone squash your dreams!
Dean, thanks for the knowledge that you share and for the pep talks.

Dean,
Thanks for another weekly blog. I always love to start my week with your blogs.
It is so true, don't take advice from someone that hasn't done what you want to do. It is funny how so many negative people will tell you not to do something or tell you that it can't be done. Or one of my favorites, tell you that it is ok if you don't chase that dream-you will be fine, just accept what you have.
But then if you stop to think and you look at the situation that same negative person is in- Ask yourself, where is that negative person at in their lives? If they are nowhere you want to be. Are they qualified to be telling you not to chase your dreams. It can sometimes be too easy to listen to your friend, or brother, or co-worker, but just because they carry those titles of friend, brother, etc in your life..that title doesn't give them the right to know all is right with your life. It is hard to stop listening to the negative people, because they are the people you have gone to before. But I have always thought and I am glad you reminded me, don't get your advice from someone who hasn't walked the path before me.
I liked the blog- what a positive way to start my week.
Thanks Dean- Have a good week.
Carpe Diem
Stacey

Dean,
Thanks for taking the time to share another weekly video blog with us. It is so true that our mindset can put us on the path of success or failure even before we start. So often in life we surround ourselves with others that may not be of the same mindset and look for guidance or inspiration. If the people we are around day to day are not motivated/positive/informative people, we need to find the like minded people that are (like on DG.com).
We become part of the environment we are around. Inspirational people can bring you up rather than letting others bring you down. Thank you for another great lesson. We wish you continued success in all you do. Believe and Achieve!
- Joe

Blog #95 rocks!
Thanks Dean. Once again you hit home. Especially when you said about those who have tried real estate investing and failed. Staying positive, staying focused, and surrounding yourself with only those who are supportive, will eventually bring success! You're inspiring! Kathy
Great Blog!
Along with your dooks, I have been reading a bunch of books right now, like, "Think and Grow Rich" by Napolean Hill, and "Rich Dad Poor Dad" by Robert Kyiosaki and I never realized until the past few years that even one negative comment made to open a discussion with someone else will lead to so many more negative comments and then just reinforce all the negative thoughts in your mind about the subject. It is so unhealthy and keeps your soul depressed. Even if there is something that makes you feel negative, you should come to terms with it quickly in your own mind and start focusing on the positive only, which will then bring more postive thoughts to you. This is the only way success can happen. So if you want postive, focus on the positive!! Thanks Dean! I
You're too right Dean
I get into arguments with a good friend of mine, and he thinks this real estate thing I plan on doing is a pipe dream. Well, I'm gonna show him and all the naysayers. Thanks again Dean.
Motivation for Doing Real Estate
Dean:
Thanks for the motivation to not let anyone talk us out of pursuing our dreams. I just read an article by Dr. Martin Weiss from Money and Markets. He is in Japan and his article talks about Japan's stagnant economy. Per Dr. Weiss, Japan's economy has been stagnant since 1990. Dr. Weiss talks about how there is a high unemployment among college graduates in Japan. Also, the homeless population is rising. The disturbing item in his article is that the United States is now trying to mirror Japan's Government Policies. Dr. Weiss states that he beleives the high unemployment in The U.S.A. will last for decades just like Japan. Dr. Weiss is an expert on Japan because he worked in Japan thirty years ago and is currently in Japan to look at their current situation. I think that Dr. Weiss is correct and the current job losses in the U.S.A. are permanent. So forget about the economy and pursue Real Estate investing. If there is anyone who needs money for their deals, please visit my website at www.privatemoneybank.com/bbell

Who do you take advice from.
Thanks Dean! That advice is not only very applicable to my real estate business, but to everything that I do.
keep it coming.
Great advice Dean. I still haven't taken my first steps. I'm still awaiting my books, but your site is a great start. I look forward to your weekly blogs, they really help keep my mind in focus. I'm so busy with work lately, and keeping my head above water, that I tend to let my goals become secondary. I am glad you provide this positive information. I myself have always tried new things, and have always been given the same negative feedback and opinions. This is just the first baby steps for me, but I'm already dreaming of what I am going to do when I reach my dreams and goals, and be able to focus on the truly positive aspects of life. Thank you again and again for your positivity, it lights up the darkess.
Sincerely and thankfully,
-Gregory Vazquez
What Profound Keepsake Principles to Remember!
Hi Dean,
I've been discouraged by various different people not to venture into real estate again. I lost everything of value in 2007-2008, was a major player in the mortgage industry. A bit stunned at first and afraid to get back out there. Then it dawned on me, this isn't my character and thanks to your encouraging messages and efforts. My goal is to be one if not your most successful student by the next EDGE 2011.
This is my mission regardless to what the Naysaers care to think. Never will I solely take advice from another indiviual that is bitter or simi jealous of my ambition due to their past failures or their own lost ambition.
Thanks Again Dean,
Your Next Success Story
Dean you may not be a
Dean you may not be a magician..but you are one of the smartest most talented positive people I know. Thanks again for more great advice.
Thanks for your blogs
This is just what I needed on a Monday morning. Now I'm focused to work toward my goals this week. No matter how hard I try, it seems your blogs are what keep me going. Thanks for caring and for taking the time to encourage us.
Once again some very
Once again some very insightful information Dean, thanks. I do however have a question and it relates to time management... How do you do it!? You seem to be going a mile a minute and somehow manage to fit it all into one day and I was curious if you, or anyone out there, had some tips on how to more wisley manage the time in a day. Thanks again.
I gotta get this first deal.
I've looked up buyers,sellers and talked to some real estate agents. Have'nt found that go getta perfect sgent match like Matt Larson yet, but I think I can work with a couple of them. Got a list of vacant houses in my area and am trying to contact those owners. I'm checking my MLS listings daily sent by a couple of agents and getting a lot of good information. Gotta get it to turn for me. I'm determined to get it done.
Thank you Dean for your inspiration. I'll be married 25 years next April, and even the bad times have all worked out for my good, so keep up the good work there too, you can make it. My wife is slowly taking an interest in what I'm trying to accomplish in real estate. She heard your blog as I was listening to it and we both admire the wisdom of your thinking. Please keep up the good work of keeping us inspired. I will get my first deal very soon I hope.
I started a non-profit 501(c)3 business called Business Fellowship of America. I took a leap of faith and left my $10 an hour job at Lowe's to get it going and work my real estate business. As president of my own business, my salary is 7% to set up and oversee the daily operations of the business. It is established primarily to start and maintain small businesses. Will you consider
partnering with me by donating to may organization? It is a tax write off for you as for any other non-profit business that you would donate to and I in turn can help Dean Graziosi students get their business licensing, training material, initial funding for deal, etc. This would provide me with working capital as well to invest in Dean Graziosi Real Estate Academy, buy more study material, etc. It is a truly WIN-WIN-WIN proposal. Please e-mail me back and let me know if you will consider this. Thanks for everything Dean, Kenny
