This week Dean talks with a couple who just completed their first two deals and are totally jazzed with the results. They share how being a part of something bigger than themselves made all the difference.
But it gets even better. Post a comment under this video and tell Dean what it means to you to be part of something bigger than yourself, or how being part of a likeminded group is helpful to reaching your goals. When you do that, you'll automatically have a chance to win Dean's iPad. Want to increase your chances... share or like this on Facebook, Google+ or tweet it on Twitter we'll add an extra drawing for you for each one. At the end of your comment list what sites you shared it on (type "Facebook", "Twitter", "Google" depending on which one(s) you shared on) so we can add your extra entries and verify the winner's "shares". Watch and get in the drawing now. Winner announced next week.

Just getting my feet wet with this type interaction. Went to a recent DG workshop in Nashville. Very well done. I am very pleased with the way this organization conducts itself and I hope to become a more active member very soon. Looking forward to learning more about Tax Certificates also. Thank you!

blog like minded people...win ipad
It is so important to be in a community to like minded people because it keeps you modivated and learning.....rock on
Thanks Dean for a great blog
I loved this blog for two reasons, Dean was having fun interviewing this couple. Second, I took a workshop back in June 2012 and applied some of the techniques I learned to get my empty house noticed again. Had it for sale, lease to own, owner financing and rent. I applied what I learned this past month and I have a great realtor and a new tenant renting my house Sept. 1, 2012. Thanks for the great info Dean and I love ya for doing this free website.
Something Bigger is Always Better!
I had Dean's books and audios and loved everything I learned, but my desire to take action really kicked in when I became part of the online DG family and started networking in my community with other investors and like minded people. This concept of being part of something bigger has not only helped me in Real Estate, but in ALL aspects of my life. I'm more active in my church, my community, and within my family and friends because of my new found enthusiasm to be part of something bigger than myself. Thank you to Dean and everyone on this site who has contributed.

Thanks
Thanks for relating to newcommers!
Thanks again Dean!
Dean, thank you again for an awesome blog! It means so much to me to see people succeeding in REI. People's energy and enthusiasm along with your own is just what so many of us need. When you're surrounded by nay-sayers you can start to believe the things they're so anxious to tell you. But your blogs and others success reinforces what we know to be true and true about ourselves.
Thanks Dean, keep up the awesome work. You're the best.
PS I hope to be one to meet you some day. God bless.

Being Involved in Something bigger than myself
First off, let me say thank you Dean for all you do to help your students be successful. My husband and I are students and are working diligently to get our first deal. Your Weekly Wisdom, blogs, etc...are so motivatational, exciting, and encouraging to us. It is very exciting being a part of something much bigger than ourselves and I'm sure we will feel this even more once our first deal comes through. I call our Advisory line several times a week for additional advice as well as training, our coaches are all very inspirational and knowledgable. Thanks again Dean for caring so much for others and making this dream a reality for so many folks!
Took the 3 day workshop this past weekend in San Bernadino
Wanted to, but cannot afford signing up RIGHT NOW for advanced training but have been working since Sunday evening to MAKE A DEAL IN THE NEXT 30 days so I can afford to take advanced training ASAP. I AM going to make it happen as I am reading Dean book 30 Days Real Estate Cash and in the am I'm reading Think and Grow Rich by Napolean Hill.
couple on video
Couple are inspiring and they give so hope that I can do this also. Thanks to all of you.
Inpiration!!
Love the enthusiasm of these two ! It really gives me a boost to stay in there and keep pushing towards my goal. I have printed out so many of the posts that I could create a book. So much information and so freely shared. But that's what friends are for, right? Keep it coming Dean. Sharon. Facebook

This sounds great. I'm going
This sounds great. I'm going to start rereading one the books in just a few moments. It's always possible to learn something new from reading the information a second or third time.
Ready to start making money!!
Dean, My husband and I have signed up for your 3 day training class AND purchased the Tax Lien course. We are very excited to learn new things and take our careers to a "whole notha level". I am a Realtor and believe being a part of your team will further my knowledge and be so beneficial to our future. I know with you and your team's help, my family will be able to do things we have only dreamed of. Thanks for all of the information and I hope to get to meet you one day!

Thanks for watching my back!
Thank you for your wisdom. I totally understand this is a process, just like life itself. Each little thing I do towards my goals with this program, gets me closer to my goal. And every goal achieved is ground for a new milestone. My mistakes are just part of my learning and thanks to input I receive from the coaches, members, my team, and everyone who participates in different ways in this organization, I am able to redirect my course and stay focused.
This means I am part of something bigger than me.
This is why I decided to plug in, stay connected and succeed, over and over again! with the DG family.
being a part of something bigger
Your enthusiasm is so awesome, and I look forward to hearing from you each week! I am still encouraged to do my first deal. You are so inspiring Dean! THANKS! Pam Humphreys, Boise, ID
DG Family
It is really important to have the DG family in your life when you need advise and help. I have been out of the game for a while but trying desperately to get back in. I really need to make a change and have things happen for me and my family because we are struggling. It is up to me to get my bottom in gear and work towards my goals. I am grateful to have this site and plan on using it to help me get started again. Thanks Dean and the DG family for always being there!!!
Congrats
Good Job, It's stories like this that keep up motivated, I have a seller now just looking for a buyer and you story is so uplifting, Thanks!
Thanks for sending the encouraging emails Dean
Times are hard for me and I can't find a job but I know that one of these days I will find a way to start your techniques. I keep seeing all these For Sale By Owner properties in my area and wonder. Wow..that's another opportunity I drove by. Again thanks for being the person you are. Take care.

A World unto its own
Your and your team's enthusiasm is contagious and I thank you for that. This company is very organized and is a pleasure to be part of. So much learning it's hard to fit it all in but I've finally found where I've wanted to be my whole career. Thank you for making my decision an easy one. It's hard not to succeed when surrounded by so many success stories. Thank you.
Your Blog
It was a sorry day when I missed your seminar in Idaho! Maybe another time. I am quite interested in learning more.
Thanks Dean!
I am so appreciative for your continued encouragement and your leadership. When I think I can't do this, all I have to do is come to this website and find a variety of encouragement and "wisdom" every where. What a great team to be apart of!!!

Still nervous...but moving forward...
Still nervous, haven't been able to make my first deal. I just keep on thinking of something going wrong, but if I don't take action I won't know and won't get to learn much more than I what I already know. Great inspiration...@ a pace of a turtle, but I will make it to the finish line!
Thanks Dean, Tom and Rasheeda and DG Fams!
Thanks for all your help!
I'm glad to be part of this group as it gives me the knowledge of what I need to do to make my first deal! I am working on it! Yesterday, I called PMI and spoke to Roy.....what a nice guy! He gave me a pep talk and told me what works for him.....gave me more confidence and a path to follow........thanks! Hopefully I'll see you at an event some day soon!
Being part of something bigger then you
It means that I can grow from it
I have to compare myself to things bigger than me to get bigger. When you compare yourself to yourself or something smaller the most you can get is to stay the same.
reach for moon
Great video!
What a cute couple. Great comments about sticking with the system (since it works!) and planning on working-it won't happen by accident. Good encouragement for me to continue doing the training, meetings, reading books, trying what works for others. I get more daring the more I am around others who are doing the same or listening to their videos, reading their comments. Good stuff!
