Dean,
I am one of those people that you talk about, the people who buy your book, watch your videos, and don't take action. I am a talented, intelligent woman, and for some reason there is a fear within me and
I hold back from getting started. I loved your words though, and I will ponder on them carefully. Who knows, perhaps you haven't heard the last of me.

Thanks once again for your sincere concern and encouragement. You are absolutely right. We are not doing this for ourselves, but for those we love.

I THINK YOU HAVE FIGUERD OUT THE FIX FOR SO MANY PEOPLE. GOD BLESS YOU EDGAR

This is my favorite wisdom blog Dean.

And, it's so true for us! We want to support our parents, our church and secure our children/grandchildrens' future.

I need that Oxygen Mask so I can BREATHE! Thank you for being so REAL with us. Getting out of the rat race is an extremely emotional thing for me and I'm sure for many others. That's why we identify with you and where you came from. You are truly inspirational! God bless!

Dean, you are right, we are in this for something bigger. Not sure exactly how that will happen yet, but something.

Thank you Dean and all the others here on this site!! I have been hesitant and not sure where to start or who to call or what to ask, and cannot currently afford the coaching yet, but I have been reading and rereading the books and posts and just this morning after getting the run around from a real estate attorney decided to call a title company and try to figure out more about assigning contracts. I was getting a little frustrated with the "it's illegal" mumbo jumbo that I kept hearing every where I went and decided this morning that I was going to keep moving. Do something, and I had to keep these reasons very close to the forefront of my mind in order to bypass frustration. So thank you for just knowing that there are deeper reasons behind why we are doing this. Just the acknowledgment makes a big impact and brought all the reasons up that I haven't really discussed with anyone.

Hi Dean I have no other choice but to take it up a notch now that I am off work. I hurt myself at work did not want to take off and working hurt cause me to be force off work. One good thing came out of this. I have more time to take it up a notch now that I am not working. So here we go:) so glad I join the success academy before this happen to me. One day I will look back and say Ahhhhhhhh. I made it. Will never give up, no matter how long it take. Lets all pray for one another to do it!!!!!

got past the nay sayers, my own fears, doubts. clicked on trulia..typed in the city i am interested in investing in..scrolled to the bottom of the screen....contact an agent..typed in my info.sent it ..same day got a response from 4 realtors. hey guys, they did not bite..they did not tell me i was an idiot..told them up front i was new at this..explained what i wanted to do.all 4 were enthusiastic to help me. told them i would be submitting aggressive offers.ok with them .they would submit any offer i sent them.looking good.hoping all goes well..moving forward. finally took that first step. YES!!!!!

You hit the nail on the head. I was talking to the computer screen-agreeing with each point-yes, that's me and that too, and that too. I've lost some momentum this past week and felt stuck, but I've got to keep focused on the deep reasons why I'm doing this and possibly, (I don't mean this to sound prideful) the adverse affect on someone else if I don't. Maybe I can change somebody's life for the better with new resources I'll gain and that won't happen if I don't follow through on this path. You never know how God might be using you.

Dean, you got it right.i don't need a lot of money for myself....it is all about living this life, knowing that i have made it just a little easier for my family!!!!!!!!keep up the good work.

I can hear your emotions loud and clear. I know you are very passionate man who really cares about other people's life. I got your program sometime ago. I start and stop than start again. I read all of your blogs. Thanks for caring about the people you don't hear from like me.I tried to write in but my message seem to get lost. maybe this thank you note will get to you this time.

Linda. if you are working with a realtor..ask them to run comps for you..within 1/2 mile of the house you are looking at..similar structure,square footage, etc.. don't be afraid to ask..use other peoples knowledge and expertise...just be up front with your expectations and most will work with you!!!

Your right as usual Dean. I do want to help my family and go on to help others in need. That has always been a desire of my heart. There are so many people who need our help. But I cant do it without helping myself first by gaining the means to help others. An empty vessel cannot pour anything into anothers cup.

Hello everybody. My name is Donnie Johnson. I have been watching these blogs on and off for a couple of years. This is my very first post (of many I should hope.)I have sat back wishing I could trust in Dean and all of his works, because I don't trust too much these days. I recently decided to order one of his books. Honestly it is all that I can afford. I have been looking at different Real Estate and Internet opportunities for about 20 years. I became convinced over time that Dean is the real deal. In his Blog I could see his honest emotion coming through. To see him as a real individual not yet showered and a little worn down actually makes him (you) appear even more real. I am beginning to read and learn. I have been called brilliant by many in my lifetime and my life has suffered because of some very bad choices. I am still the same person, and even more than I ever was. I heard Dean say the other day to do EXACTLY as he suggests. So that is my plan. To follow the order of things exactly. I shall be successful. I must. I will. I shall endure and then grow. I hope someday you will all know me by my first name like Matt's or Dean's.

I want to become bullet proof. What you said is so true. I just thank you for this. I want to be successful with this. Honestly for this to happen I must jump in like you said.

Your blog reminded me of the golden rule Dean, helping others in need is the greatest feeling and what a testimony. May your cooperation be an example to our Country!

Thanks Dean!

Cus you hit the head on the vast majority of things.... Thanks Dean, this is why I want to do it. Yes to help me first but ultimately it's to free me up to help make my families lives better. They deserve way better than what I had growing up. I would also like to KNOW not hope that I made a difference in the world when my time comes. Thank you Dean for all that you do! You help keep me focused and on track just like a lighthouse in the fog. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and holiday season.

Hi I know dean loves to inspire folks so I figured I would add a little inspiration of my own. This is a great quote had to post it! Dare to Be

When a new day begins, dare to smile gratefully.

When there is darkness, dare to be the first to shine a light.

When there is injustice, dare to be the first to condemn it.

When something seems difficult, dare to do it anyway.

When life seems to beat you down, dare to fight back.

When there seems to be no hope, dare to find some.

When you're feeling tired, dare to keep going.

When times are tough, dare to be tougher.

When love hurts you, dare to love again.

When someone is hurting, dare to help them heal.

When another is lost, dare to help them find the way.

When a friend falls, dare to be the first to extend a hand.

When you cross paths with another, dare to make them smile.

When you feel great, dare to help someone else feel great too.

When the day has ended, dare to feel as you've done your best.

Dare to be the best you can -

At all times, Dare to be!

I wish you all the best!!!
Know that you can do it and you will

Dean; I cannot tell you how wonderful it is that you take the time to do these inspiring weeky blogs, but this one brought tears to my eyes, it hit me hard to my heart. I thank you so much forwhat you and your team has put together to be able to put all of us DGer's together. I love the way you inspire me, you give me hope to the road to success. Bouncing back from Stage 4 colorectal/liver cancer. You give me energy and inspiration to be a success no matter how bumpy the road. R.B. Wis Rapids Wi.

as always you seem to strike a nerve.(in a good way)
we all have dreams and goals or we should anyway,
speaking for myself one of my main goals is to have multi generational wealth. i was raised poor, i am poor. i'm rich in faith however and i know that i know that i know real estate and true freedom awaits me here. yea, money is great but that's not what most of us are about. most of us are about the freedom and security that money and wealth can bring. not just to ourselves but the trickle down effect can have it's own rewards.
ever try going through the drive through at a restaurant and paying for the person behind you or at the toll booth just because you can?
that person may be having the worst day of his/her life, but just that simple act of kindness to a stranger may turn their day around.
it will surely turn your day around.
give thanks in the toughest times for what you do have, and remember all you dg family we have the support of each other right here.
keep moving forward, rob

Thank you Dean for reminding us to remember our true core motivators for wanting and deserving of a better life. Thank you so much.

Yes Dean: I am in that industry.Had to wait to get to a location (my computer) to view your blog video. I am looking forward to my next deal!so I can gain the confidence to really help others and my two children.
Thanks for the boost

Dean, you hit the nail right on the head. Some of us want to prove that we can do something big with our lives; that we are go-getters. When everyone else is telling us we can't do it because others who are in better positions than we are have tried and have failed and they ask us why do we think we can. People who do not believe in us until they see results. We are preparing ourselves emotionally to handle it, though.
I know how you think and feel because I could hear it in your voice; the way you care for others and want them to succeed. A great preacher once said that when he prayed, he asked God to let him feel what the other people are feeling and God actually did. That way, his prayer for them became more effective and meaningful and he could pray better. I know you feel for us and care for us. God bless you and your family richly.
Annis

Thanks Dean
Like always they're so mush that I can do to help those around. But to tell you the truth ever thing that you said in your blog I know there some one out there going throw it counting my self.

Very hard times
Happy Thanks Given
DG family & friends
Good Day Fern
