Don't wait. The time will never be right.

Hello,

one of the most challenging things i have encountered has been taking the first step in REI. I feel that there are an extreme amount of new investors that find themselves asking the same thing i ask my self when i find a potential project, where do i begin?? For the last 6-8 months i have been reading blogs, watching videos, looking at properties and conversing with Agents. I don't want to get caught up in convincing my self i am productively making the right moves towards investing, i want to make it happen. I learn from so many of you here on BP and i am extremely thankful for you all sharing your experiences.

I would love to hear about some of the experiences that you new investors faced, as well as how you started your first deal. Thank you all for your great stories and i look forward to hearing from you. Cheers!

Exactly there are many reasons to tell yourself "Right now is not a good time" but the real question is when is a good time? Tomorrow is not certain anything can change in the blink of an eye. Its the actions that we take today that can define how tomorrow turns out for good and for bad. Its your choice. 

Just get out there and make it happen.
