Running a half marathon is lot like RE investing
Today I finished the race! Mercedes Half Marathon in Bham..The conditions were not favorable. It was rainy and cold at the start. I wanted to pass!! BUT..
1. 3 months of training------prepared
2. I was equipped..proper shoes, clothes, rain gear, music
3. Various levels of runners, walkers, half marathoners, full marathoners, strollers, under 18, over 18, etc..
4. I finished 13.1 in 3hrs 41 min...the winner of the full finished way under 2 hrs(Wow) I was on mile 10 when he flew by..
RE is quite the same..
1. Training..newbies to 20+yrs..viewing properties, taking tenant calls, dealing with contractors, etc..
2. Tools..wholesale, flipping, TK, rentals, etc
3. Expertise..were all shaped different because we bring our experiences to the table..Lots of similarities in the business but different
4. Finish..if you stick it out, you can finish, however there will be challenges..
BUT....I can look back and say I'm gonna finish!!! and FINISH STRONG!!!
Today there were 2 ladies I met all the way from DC who encouraged me!
I hope I can encourage someone along the way!!!
