Dean Graziosi Weekly Wisdom #243 - Improve One Thing

Last week Dean talked about being the best “you” you can be. This week there is a challenge. Pick one thing you want to improve, something you can take action on this week. Write that thing below and then follow up with what you did to accomplish that at the end of the week. Also, the cute factor is heavily present in this video with the guest appearances of the Graziosi munchkins. Enjoy.

I'm going to find a better agent and also find a workout partner. I also need to follow the 30 day book and get a great team in place. Still finding properties but need to work the system like Carol.

Goals are set!!!

My challenge

This is my first time posting so here we go. The one thing that I need to do right now is get started. If I do not start then there will never be anything to finish. I want to one day look back on where I am now and be able to laugh about how much I worry. I need your help Dean because I do not want to live how I am and have been living. I realize that I do need to get started. I am going to get a pre-paid card and load it with money so I can call Jeremy Riggs and get the ball rolling.

Technology

Recently I faced my fears and signed up for Facebook - now more than ever I need to go on a computer diet. I am a person-to-person person, not a disembodied head-in-a-box person. Email, blogs, newsletters, social media - they destroy my body and spirit rather than uplift. So unhealthy. Sorry for what the rest of you must consider negative talk, but positive steps for me are to get outdoors, interact with real live people, and skip the time and energy drain of technology. A simpler life for me - now that's beauty.

Kids and Improve One Thing

Your kids are adorable! Thanks for having them on. Since I've already lost 20 pounds, work out just about every day and run 2-4 miles 4x per week...I have just begun my search for a realtor--that's a big step for me so my new one thing (for starters) would be to stop negative thoughts. To that end I'm listening to motivational CD's to help change that habit. Thanks for making us think about how we can improve ourselves hence our lives. Happy 4th of July to all. Have fun and be safe ~

weekly wisdom with dean and kids

Dean I've already begun. I have a realtor willing to work with me,am building buyers list,found a couple of investors. My main goal was to get out of my comfort zone and MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN!!!! Whenever I start to over think things I remind myself what you said "Over analysis causes peralysis. JUST DO IT!!!!!!T

Great weekly wisdom

My thing is that I procrastinate. It is a killer and I see it in my grand daughter that lives with us. So my goal is to stop procrastinating to write down my daily and weekly goals and post them where I have to read them daily. Then I need to put them into action. I joined the Insiders Elite group today on the 30 day trail to get more training and get the procrastination stopped. My goal for the rest of this year is to put out 25 offers a week and make 50k in the remaining 5 months of this year. It is small but right now I'm making nothing. I will accomplish this by wholesaling.

Dean just loved this video I

Re: your weekly wisdom #243

I want and need to stay away from Negative family members! and everyone else who is negative in my life and that includes myself.
this is the one thing I want and need to do.

get more organized in my

get more organized in my private and business life.

challenge myself

sticking to the short term want to find that real estate agent to work with. want to make that first deal. an old boss I had always told me not to forget to look at the big picture. the big picture for me has always been my son. I am a single dad. raised him on my own since he was 10. he just turned 25. just want him to be proud of his old man.

What Beautiful Kids!!!

Hi Dean,

Thanks for sharing your kids and challenging us to be better. I am going to add daily exercising to my life. I've been putting it off forever.

Weekly Wisdom

Dean - Your kids are absolutely "PRECIOUS" ! Thanks for the extra push & positive encouragement.

My one, but necessary thing is. I'm going to try to slow down so I have more time to focus on my real estate business. There are so many requests to do this or that, all good & noble things, but if I don't slow down & say no to some things I won't have the time or energy left to make the progress to further my business,

As always ... A big THANKS Dean for all you do !

Hope you & family have a "Happy 4th" !!

Love the opening

Break away from the do it all mentality, stop doing $10 and hour tasks, delegate,delegate delegate.

I Got My Nose To the Grind~

Dean, I appreciate your time in sending us messages that challenge us but keep us all accountable as investor's. Well, the only challenge I have at this time is distraction and interruptions w/parents in our home. Now, this problem has been fixed by communicating to all parties, I have a business to run and any non-perishing issues can be address after 6:00p.m. Well, I make a Itenary every night on what needs to be accomplished and completed on all deals. I currently have a total of 3 Cash Investor's who want's to purchase Multiple Properties. So, I am very close in locking up deals this Friday and next week. I originally had 6 investor's. So, as a "Newbie" I will be mailing letter's to my Cash Buyer's from my realtor's this Friday. Also, I have appts schedule for July 4th in Cincinnati, Ohio to view 7/8 Properties with my Realtor and general contractor and I. I have an appt nxt week to view 5/6 Properties with my Realtor in Columbus, Ohio for my cash investor. Also, as of today, all z-estimate values and Comp Valuation are completed on all properties. Now, I have to get all rehab cost completed and finalize my number's and submit info to each investor. Hopefully, this week-end I can begin marketing to investor's by using the 98 ways to get Buyer's Marketing Plan that you and PMI I have provided us with. Dean, You have made life so much simplier. This is why I have continiously tell ppl to invest in training IF you desire to successful and enjoy long term benefits. Well, I have decided to have approximately 10 Cash Investor's by next friday. Oh, forgot, Bandit Signs will be going out in Dayton, Cincinnati, and Columbus this Fri/Sat and next Friday. So, as you can see.. The Only other Problem I need to Improve is finding more hours in the day to complete all the Fun and Exciting things I enjoy doing the most. Well, I love my PMI Mentor's and Coaches who are the BEST in the Country. Dean, keep allowing our heavenly creator using you globally as you continue reaching out and making a difference in our world. Oh, one last thing before I forget. I publically want to thank you and my sponser for allowing me to have an opportunity to enroll in the 720Credit Education Program. Now, I have my life back and my Buying Power to invest in Purchasing Cash for Properties this year. The Best Is Yet To Come..(Plz give me sponser name, so I can send a Thank You notice) Now, may the rest of your days (Dean & PMI) , be the Best of your days!~

challenge for the week

My challenge for the week is to be better at setting goals. I find if I set a goal I work way harder than if not.

Wonderful video with kids!!

jeannieo's picture

Thanks Dean for sharing your very cute kids with us! I just got back from Colorado where I spent two wonderful weeks with my two granddaughters!

I made myself a promise before I left on that trip that when I got back, I will dive in full steam ahead with my real estate investing and FINALLY get my first deal!! That is what I am working on now! Thanks for the encouragement you continue to give all of us at the DG family.

That was GREAT Dean!

God tells us in His word Proverbs 29:18, “Where there is no vision, the people perish. When I and my wife venture into this there was a lot of learning we had to go through. It was worth it, we have three kids and we have a legacy to leave behind and we want are kids to say the day we are gone that mom and dad had a vision and that vision was to make us strong responsible adults taking on the world and never giving up.

You have created that vision for us here, you are a living testimony to the world that with vision and ACTION you can do whatever you put your mind to do and that nothing is impossible for those who believe. Thank you from the bottom of are hearts for giving yourself to help others, that is a true definition of a servant. We are ready to go, and have everything in place and we will have a deal pretty soon. Thank you Dean for putting together an amazing team and allowing them to train us and learn from the best. God Bless you my friend and may God continue to give you more wisdom!

Letting Go

phalliev's picture

I am focused on letting go of limiting beliefs, habits and attitudes that do not serve my higher self! By being conscious of them, I will become a better version of me. Currently rehabbing 3 properties. One is a flip and we're using the end buyer's funds to do it. When there's a will, there's a way!

no time to waste
