Are you emotionally driven? Most people are. We let our emotions drive our actions. Your emotions can be powerful motivators or they can cause destructive lack of action.

This week, we talk about taking the emotion out of the decision process. It allows you to take ownership of your life and your actions, as well as gain the confidence you need in all areas. This can do everything from changing the way you feel about yourself to dramatically changing the economy in your house.

Watch it now and as a special surprise, you'll find out how anyone who leaves a comment on this blog this week can get a FREE digital copy of my bestselling book 'Totally Fulfilled.'

A future to believe In, A present that is not chaning

So far, 2012 has been an interesting year because I have a new job, in a new city, making more money than I have ever been paid. Wow!!!! right? Well, I dont have my family and I still dont feel like I have a proper balance between work and myself. I DON'T feel totally fulfilled. I have the drive to embrace real estate investing as my career but the same old story is keeping me trapped. I freeze, being by myself, when I think about where to begin. I deserve to be a success story and move back home to be with my family. I understand that I will definitely have to get a mentor to give me some direction and keep me motivated. The 2nd half of 2012 will be my beginning of moving from thinking about investing to purchasing my first property. I want to be "TOTALLY FULFILLED"

Emotion in Action

Thanks goodness, you've hit my emotional triggers!
I've gotten enough emotional support from you and the other DG people to make up for the naysayers.
I have been taking action and am on my way.
Thanks Dean and the DG family,
Cathy from NJ

Total Action = Total Fulfillment

Time is ticking & this stuff works! It amazes me every time I take action and see the results. Sure wish I had an office full of people helping me out or an endless flow of investors looking for deals. Thanks for all that you do Dean! Always look forward to your great Weekly Wisdom.

MAN!!! just what we need , when we seem to need it !!! I believe you've found your calling, if anybody ever has!!! I pray that you'll never quit doing this. You'll never know how many people you've touched, effected, helped and totally changed, as well as generation's that follow. Few are blessed with such a legacy. The only thing worth more than all the monetary value's of the world, are people. WE ARE PRICELESS. The most honorable and courageous action a man can choose, is to invest himself in others.
ROCK ON MY BROTHER
May we mirror you example

Emotions

Hello Dean, just wanted to say that no matter what emotion I am feeling when I watch your blogs or read some of the post. I always get the strength to keep me going forward. You and your team have giving me the strength and courage not to give up. I was scared in the beginning but now I have been taking action. Once I got over the emotion of being scared I am moving in a forward motion. So I just want to say thank you for all the hard work you and your team do to keep people like myself going forward Thank You

Thanks Dean right on time

As always I look forward to the weekly wisdom for you. All my deals are sitting right at the door but I am experiencing more delays and uncorporating people than I could Imagine. That only tells me Iam about to reach my set goals and go above and beyond anything I could ever dream.

Thanks Dean

I am excited to get a copy of your book. I have heard a lot of great things about it! But I am a little nervous and VERY disappointed in myself for not taking action! I've poured a lot of money into this but haven't taken the steps to make any!! I really need your motivation! Thanks for continuing to reach out to all of us that come to this site for inspiration - I will take the steps to make the change for my future!

Hi Dean,

This video is truly motivating! We're at the halfway mark of 2012 and I want to transform my life by December 2012 -- thanks for all your help!

I am going to take action

Anthony LoGrasso's picture

I love these motivation videos, they awake my gut feelings and start my blood going.
I need to overcome stagnation and idleness and start to take action. I need to shake the fear of making mistakes and go ahead. Deep inside I know that I will succeed in achieving anything I put myself into, I have done that all my life.
I have taken excuses that before I had support from family and friends, now I have neither.
My family is scattered after the divorce, I live by myself and seems nobody cares about me.
I will shake it off, I'll gain my youthful self confidence and do all that it takes to complete all the deals I will set up myself to do.
I am going to regain the financial freedom once had.
Thank you DG family

Weekly Wisdom Response

Thank you, Dean...
You are SO RIGHT!!!
This is the time and although I am a Success Academy member...I have been dealing with many health challenges, which ultimately is the only reason why I've only done one deal...back in January. I am feeling better and stronger each day and even though I am only really 'up'...out of bed for a few hours now without getting drained due to my chronic Lyme disease / heart complications...
Just this past week I've been able to be up longer and I am ready to commit to do as much as I can to focus on just doing ASSIGNMENTS. I should be able to do that from my home, with my computer. You have taught numerous ways to go about this...so look out...here comes another SUCCESS STORY!!!!

Thank you so much for all the support, encouragement and knowledge you so freely share. You are a most generous, and sincere man who truly is trying to make a positive change in the lives of anyone willing to listen and be open...ultimately helping everyone's ECONOMY...all the way up the line.
Thank you, Dean-
Gotta get going and start working!!!!

All that you said was true. We as investor just have to not worry about the "nay sayers", and continue to move forward.

Thanks,

Another awesome weekly

Another awesome weekly wisdom Dean. Im still struggling with getting my first deal done. Perserverance and the wisdom you preach are my inspiration to keep going. I am looking for someone in the Chicagoland area to partner with as I am a very unmotivated person and need somebody to partner with to get me started. I'm certain that once I can get 1 deal done I'll be off and running with no turning back and the world will be my oyster. Your weekly inspirations are what keep me going and give me a positive outlook. I feel that someday I will look back on all of this indecision on my part and laugh, but for now I am struggling . Having adult ADD doesn't help especially when it comes to staying organized and that is why I'd like to find a mentor/partner to go at this full force and never look back. I don't want to be one of those who looks back 5 years from now and says: "Wow,why didn't I get motivated enough to make my REI business a success?" I want to be able to look back and give myself a giant pat on the back knowing that I did the right thing at the right time and it payed off Big Time! Thankyou Dean for all your positive and unselfish support. Bless you.

Gratitude

I posted a comment when I registered on your site but like somebody said, you did not say we could not post more than once . I am extremely grateful for people like you in the world. It is obvious to me that you genuinely want to help people succeed in life, not just Real Estate. Honest people with integrity like yourself are still quite a rarity. Most these days have some hidden agenda. I have been following you for a while and I love what I have learned from you. Your free electronic book will be the icing on the cake for me. You are a truly great mentor. Thank you. Kathy (UK)
