Need vs Want

This weeks wisdom made me think of the reason why I want to pursue this venture. Dean and his team refer to the 7 reasons why exercise and the overall importance to doing this exercise. It has helped me stay tuned to this venture. However, like Dean, I have ADHD and find it difficult to get engaged at times and often drift from where I want to go. what I find interesting is that I discovered my Need is greater than any WANT and that this will help steer me in the right direction, at the right time.

Think about it for a second. A car is a terrific invention that allows people to go from one place to another in a timely manner. Unlike a horse which only requires hay, shoeing, etc., a car is comprised of many more sophisticated components. A simple thing like a spark plug will prevent it from running. Suppose I give your the spark plug, will it run? It depends. What if it needs gas and suppose I fill your car with fuel. Will it run? It depends. Suppose it needs a tire or other part? Suppose, suppose, suppose... We get around this dilemma by eliminating the unknowns.

My life is the same and it's no different than yours. There are certain things we need in life--food, clothing, and a place to live (these are needs). We could name additional frills but are they really necessary to survive(these are wants)? So, how do we obtain these needs? We can take the traditional route and work 24/7 for the man and make the man happy or we can follow in someone Else's foot steps (Dean and Matt) and satisfy our NEEDS. I chose the latter.

So where do I start. First I must determine what my needs are. I want to keep them simple and translate them into deals. Not only that, I want to translate the number of deals I need to accomplish down to the day, week, month, and yearly time periods assuming each deal equates to 'X' number of dollars. Not rocket science but actual, everyday experiences put to the test.

Deals are found using the 25:1 strategy and following the guidelines provided in Deans 30 Days to Real Estate CASH. No deviations. Sticking strictly to the script and consulting with the experts about questions.

I am doing so and I know I will make this an extra-ordinary year.
