What a day today. I feel like I was jumping from one thing to the next. I need to work smarter instead of trying to make things so hard. Have to learn one avenue of real estate stick to it and stop overwhelming myself trying to do so much at a time. I pat myself on the back and say good job today for putting forth the effort to succeed in real estate. Lease Options or Assignment of Contract which one do I do? Either one for right now and then the other later down the road. I have to focus, stay calm, be brave and then I shall accomplish my goal of having my first deal done by January 30 2010. Oh yes, it's mission possible.

Mrs. Chenault,
Good point!
Focus on one avenue for now and specialize in it. I like the idea. I need to follow your example. So much info all at one time for me can be overwhelming. Another idea to add is to find others focusing on the same avenue of real estate, share idea etc thourgh networking and help motivate each other. Once you decide Which you want to focus on be sure and post something about it. I am thinking of birdoging/asigning now part-time while I prepare and plan to fix and flip or hold and rent in the future, awaiting for the right time to sell based on the local/national cycles going up and/or appraisal.

I've decided also to do assignments of contract. I decided to look at real estate as a pie. If you try to eat it and digest it all at once your going to be overstuffed! Now, if you take it slice by slice you'll be able to digest it so much better:) Have a HAPPY NEW YEAR and know that your too blessed to be stressed.
God Bless you and yours,

My computer was having some issues, wasn't try to hog up space
Today I was so much more focused then I was yesterday. Writing down whatever is troubling you really does help. I found two buyers to birddog for! I've started looking at properties online that fit their criteria. It's about to be a brand new year and a brand new me Nothing changes unless you change. Open up to life and life will show you all that you've been missing!
I bascially apologized to myself about the repeated postings......ooookaaaay..
Mrs C,
Is it ok to call you Mrs C? I am lazy when I can get away with it.
I like chocolate pie.
I like your pie analogy, and have a little something to add to it.
Pie =REI info.
Eating = learning
Digesting = ACTION
Slice = step
This works with what you said " I decided to look at real estate as a pie. If you try to eat it and digest it all at once your going to be overstuffed! Now, if you take it slice by slice you'll be able to digest it so much better."
Blueprint for sucess based on pie??? That idea makes me hungry in more ways than one.

Be Blessed and Happy New Year!!!!!!!
I finally did my first property inspection today on a house that could potentially be my first deal. I'm going to run comps on the house next, contact my buyers to make them aware of the house, and if all goes well I'll be making an offer on Jan 2nd.
~TIME FOR A NEW ME, NEW LIFE~
Mrs C??? Where have you been? What happened with the potential offer made on Jan 2? etc etc etc

I love the pie analogy and Scott's additon was icing on the 'pie'. I never thought about it like that. And it does make you hungry in more ways than one. Scott I love how you post and read other's journals. I'm trying to keep up and read new ones each and everyday. Keep at it everyone; we will all get there. Mrs C I want to know what's going on too?

Hello, I'm back About the deal that I did a basic inspection on, it didn't work out. The seller would not lower his price enough to where I could wholesale it to another buyer. So I'm on to the next potential deal with more confidence, wisdom, and experience. I'll be posting my first deal on here very soon
"I am who I say I am, I can do whatever I say I can do. I am victorous and I will achieve my dreams."
