I need to get out the door
i know this sounds pathetic but I need to get out there.
I've done a ton of busy work and i do not believe i can get any more prepared to start than where i am now.
I've been to webinairs and find myself answering other people questions.
I've listen to countless you tube how to videos and find myself hear the same thing. even saying what they were going to say before they said it.
i got yellow templates saved, i got seller scripts saved, i many different business card designs saved, i have a web site designed saved. the list goes on and on.
What i need to do is start picking up the phone and make some phone calls.
to like:
calling realtors and get to know the hot spot markets
go to a reia meeting instead of keeping track of when they are.
network with others in my area
start looking for real property (not sample property to practice on) and runing the numbers
direct mail
getting on that phone.
it's just frustrating and i have no one to be frustrated at but myself.
has anyone gone through this phase?
what are some tips that you've done to get you out there?

@Tina Ferrier I have one rule I live by. Do something productive so that I move forward each day. Some days I do a lot. Some days I just read one post and respond to it. But every single day I will do something to move forward. EVERY SINGLE DAY. Birthdays, vacations, holidays. On the light days mostly vacations I will just log onto BP and read a post or two.
The other thing I do is ask myself what is the on thing I can do that by doing so will make everything else easier or not needed at all? For example maybe today I attend a REI meeting. By doing so I will gain knowledge in market conditions, networking and analyzing.
You already made a list. So tomorrow I expect that you will do something that enables you to cross off at least two things.
Remember EVERY SINGLE DAY take a step forward.
