Dean Graziosi Weekly Wisdom #233 - A Year's Worth of Inspiration

EDGE 2013 has come to an end, but what an amazing event it was this year! With that in mind Dean shares what gives him the inspiration to continue striving to make our education even better, despite already being leaps and bounds beyond on any other so called "guru" or training company out there. Dean also shares why it is so important that he inspires you - so you don't miss the amazing opportunities in real estate available right now that can change your future. Please leave us a comment, especially those that were at or watched the EDGE event to share some of the amazing things you learned.

Rising Above the Stickin Thinking and not being Sidetracked

Hello and Thanks Dean/Staff/ all DG Family:

I was able to attend portions of the Event and my ah ha moment was rising above the stickin thinking and associating with like minded people and saying no to people / the outside world who if we would allow them will rob me (us)of our dreams and goals. Its sad that when we graduate from school and think we cant go to college or start up a business which partly results from during the time when we attend school we are all put into one nice category and programmed and the same process continues again and again when we enter the work world and then we choose a dead end job and either we stay there or move from one dead end job to another perhaps from FEAR. Unlesss we break that cycle....That was me!!! I never have any regrets being a part of the DG Family....I have came soooo far since last september and now I look as my past as R&D no matter how bad.
My ohter ah ha moment was when Dean talked about Resourses with Opportunities and how they needed to balance. The light bulb went on today.....for example having enough Motivated Sellers and Buyers, For example rehabbing having many people on your team for mnt, buyers, title companies, realtors.....
Awsome things happen to those who are open minded and take the time to take ACTION

Where I am at...

Thanks again Dean for Your words of encouragement. I am currently working through your techniques and lessons, and am actively in pursuit of my first deal. Had another caller yesterday. Doing my Best on a very small budget. I could not afford the Edge discount offer You gave however; and I am sure I missed many things said of great value; but I am almost broke. I am trying every day to make positive changes in the way I think, feel and go about building my new career in Real Estate Investing! I am "P.U.S.H.ing" forward with all I have in me. Aside from the 50hrs. at the job, and some time with my family, I spend most of the rest of my week doing something for my investing. That 1st deal is close by, I can feel it! Talk to You soon, here, I cannot continue my Silver I.E. membership at this time.

Sincerely, Proud DG student on small budget.

DEAN,

WOW! What a Party!
To be able to meet you in person, the Guy on T.V.
The time you gave me was so unreal to me.You really listened to me when I told you,how I related with you about how hard you had it in school,and that you couldn't spell.

"That was me as a kid'.
Then you shared with me,how you weren't going to force your kids to go to Collage, if they don't want to.

This was the first event that I attended, and it was Amazing!
It was also amazing to meet some of your top students.
The game you put together at the I.E. Party, was sure creative, it show me
how the step's are done. It open up my eye's, to possibility.

Can't Thank you enough,

Richard Armendariz

EDGE 2013 - Phenomenal!
It was my extreme privelege to speak this year. 2012 was the alumni stage, and 2011 I was there as a contest runner-up.
I am no different from anyone reading this post. You all have the capabilities. Be inspired, yes, but be motivated and take PERSISTANT action now so you can be there with successes to report at the EDGE 2014.
Thank you Dean for a beyond-wonderful weekend.

This was another great event with so much great content. I would encourage everyone to be sure to try to attend next year because each year there is so much information, techniques, networking that happens at the event.

We enjoyed meeting so many new people and making new friends as well as seeing our current friends from DG.com and the IE website. Good luck to everyone and make this the year of action! Believe and Achieve! Smiling - Joe and Stacey

Edge Wrapup

Got a chance to chat with Dean for just a few minutes in the hallway this weekend at the Edge. I came away from that conversation, and the whole event, even more convinced that he is genuinely committed to serving others with integrity.

He and his team are out there doing deals and stay current with market conditions, and then generously share what they're learning and seeing with everyone.

So glad we had the opportunity to attend, and we've already registered for next year. Here's to making 2013 the best year of our lives!

EDGE EVENT!

The Edge Event was absolutely fantastic! The information presented was thorough, interesting, and productive. There were quite a few times that some information, presented a different way, hit home. And, I learned a lot of new knowledge as well. Networking and the positive energy that radiated from everyone, was amazing. I hope that everyone could attend next year because it would definitely catapault them forward in their real estate business! Thank you Dean for all the opportunities that are now in front of us.

I got the edge fever! Got to catch up with a lot of acquaintances from last year and met so many more of you this year. The event is always inspirational, you see and hear the results of other students. The networking is huge and the motivation is incredible. Im opening my garage doors 1 at a time! Dean is the real deal.

Top tips on finding money

Sorry we couldn't make the Edge. We participated in Boots on the Ground and the Buying Summit last year and now have two rentals. Our market has become a lot more competitive and we need funds. It would be awesome if you would share some of the Edge Event to help get us back into the game. Helena & Pat

Love ALL of the weekly wisdoms and would LOVE to be able to watch the EDGE replays! Thanks Dean for all you do!

I was so determined to attend this years event that I drove from Maryland to Scottsdale to attend the event. The drive allowed me to clear some cobwebs and start fresh.

And I'm glad I did. This was my first time attending. I met some astonishing people, made lifetime friends, and got more capabilities than I can apply at one time.

However, I did receive the nuggets to get my off my assets and I did receive the inspiration to win the Take me Away contest next year.

My advise to everyone is to get out of my way if you don't want to eat my dust. (-:

Glad to meet everyone. Best wishes. It's now time to get to work and apply what was covered.

Hi Dean

I was one of the lucky ones who was able to watch the live event online.It is a struggle to come up with the money each month to be a part of the Insider Elite program but I am going to keep it up as long as I can.I so want to join the Success Academy, but unfortunately it is not posible right now. The event was was so inspiring and of course a cried a few tears with Carol and Jen.I'm glad alot was focused on "your why" and motivation and getting over the fear. I think that stops alot of us from succeeding.I fuigure I am 61 so what have I got to lose!I picked up alot of tips and putting them to use now. I feel since not everyone was as lucky to be able to be part of the live event by either being there(which I want to be next year) or watching online that maybe you should allow everyone to watch for a short period of time.Everyone should have the opportunity to be part of your coaching, even if they can't afford it so they can make a better life for themselves and their family.We are all so blessed to have you and your contributors in our lives to guide us and help us succeed.God Bless You Dean!

RE: Weekly Wisdom #233

Hi Dean,
I wasn't able to attend the Edge event or watch it online, and would love to see it.

NO REGETS regarding the EDGE

mnusbaum's picture

Hey everyone! What a weekend and a GREAT few days returning home. This was our First Edge and we will NEVER miss one in the future. If you missed it- DON'T miss it next year that's all We can say. We have been doing RE for some time and been a part of DG family for 6 months but going to the EDGE got us something in one weekend it would take us weeks even months to get. We got amazing training and the networking was even more AMAZING. Someone asked me why we didn't just watch it online... I said NETWRORKING-something we could have never accessed from the comfort of our sofa. We obtained so many new buyers, whole-sellers, sellers....and most of all friends that we look forward to staying in touch with. These connections have helped us move forward and we have already sold 2 maybe 4 of our properties 24 hours after we got home following the event. HELLO! The entire opportunity is so user friendly you just have to plug in and follow the directions- how simple is that! Anyway I could go on for hours- We started a Success Journal- check it out on the member Journals under Melissa's success Journal and follow our story and ask us any questions you want- we know that by helping others we can help ourselves and we know that we DESERVE TO BE A SUCCESS and SO DO YOU!

We look forward to next year and all the SUCCESS in between!

EDGE Event

Dean,

First of all, thanks for taking time to read this. However, let's get straight to it. You've literally given me SO much in terms of knowledge and motivation towards improving my life and gaining the proper mindset of constantly thinking positively. I can honestly tell you, that once people see what The EDGE is all about, what DeanGraziosi.com is all about, they will want more. I did. While it does seem kind of unfair that some may get to view it for free from certain perspectives, in the end it will improve networking and get more people involved than ever. So I do think it would be a very positive decision to let people view this year's EDGE event. Show these people what they're missing and push them over that line they're teetering on.

Thanks Dean,

Tim Harry

DEAN, thank you !!!!!

Dean,

The EDGE 2013 was amazing! It was a wonderful experience for me. You and all the speakers are inspiring. I have learned a lot. Lots of "aha!" moments. The crowd is electrifying and so many knowledgeable people willing to share what they did to accomplish what needs to be done. Very supportive community.

I once meet a Navy Blue Angel lead pilot and their favorite mantra is "I'm glad to be here". I have never fully understood what he meant until I attended the EDGE. The EDGE to me represents the Blue Angels of RE.

Only thing though is that my wife is unable to join me since she was taking care of our son in the hotel room. She is compensating by watching the replays AND taking notes.

We will definitely go back next year. Even if we have to bring the baby sitter.

Edge Event online???

Would be great for us who missed Edge Event.

Always awesome info in DG training. Feel definitely at disadvantage when miss any.

IE

For everyone who is getting inspierd by Deans video and all the comments about how amazing it was, let me tell you... 1st off I wasnt able to attend the EDGE, but I was there for the IE party. Just being there, seeing Dean and his top students live in person and all the others that came that range from doing 0 deals to 100's. It really is an experiance, the feeling of being part of somthing bigger, and makes it feel more real, more thank just a picture and video on the computer. It is Very MOTIVATING! Take the next step and buy tickets for next year, and join the Insider Elite. Fill up with knowlage and make some money from the education on the IE. Work up to be a platnum member so that if all the seats are sold at the next Edge you plan to attend, atleast you should beable to watch the replay! See you all at the Edge 2014!

Dean,

The EDGE event is so wonderful and may the needed catalyst some people badly need. I will not be opposed if the EDGE recordings become available to those who weren't able to go. I believe more people want to participate as well but is simply unable, not because they don't want to.

Dennil

Tough luck

Hi dean just wanted to say i think you should not make the edge available for everyone only because i feel it would make the elite insider lose value for thoughs who payed. It should then motivate others to join knowing what they could have access too 24/7. And thats well worth it. As you want us to be do'ers or action takers let the the insiders elite be that border for next level thinking.

The Reply to The Edge Event

Hello Dean,

I would hope it would be easy to send out a replay to those who show interest in the presentation. I was one of many who did not make it and reading all the different comments that people are leaving makes me enticed to be able to watch the replay. Can you send a video link to my email? I am so happy that everyone who went had a great time. Next year I should be there. Other than that. Great Job Dean. You amaze a lot of people including myself. Now its my turn to do the same. Smiling

Benefits cannot be measured

shinton's picture

Wow - - the benefits of networking cannot be measured because you are continually connecting with others and through others. I went to the IE party on Friday and it was AMAZING and so much FUN! I didn't have tickets for the EDGE so I watched it at home. Here is the difference: you learn a lot, but when you are around others that are like minded, it creates an energy you cannot explain, plus you have the benefit of talking to others, connecting on deals, getting encouragement, and helping others yourself. So I think the EDGE online should be made available to everyone, because what you pay for when you physically attend is the actual networking and trading contact info with others, and the inspiration....which, by the way, is priceless. Dean, you've taught us not to be greedy, and I'm all for sharing, and I'm willing to pay for tickets to be in the moment, to be part of the action going on. The more we share, the more we benefit. Life is good, and this is going to be a good year.I'll be at the party and at the EDGE 2014. Thank you, Dean.

Hi Dean & DG Fam

This year Edge was amazing, Just like every other year. Filled with top strategies that are working right this instant in your market to start making you money. This year was truly special cause not only did they talk about strategies to get you making money now, but they also talked about motivation, goal setting, how to overcome naysayer and even the worst naysayer that lives in between your ears ( The Drunk Monkey ).

You should def put the video up. Im sure so many people need to hear what we said this year at the edge to get them to there first deal and many more.
