Wholesaling motivation.

I must admit I am not as focused as I was when I started just 3 weeks ago. Ive had a list since then and have basically paused my action. Poorest excuse is, there is a lot over time at my job right now and its really hard to not take the opportunity to take the over time when it helps me so much currently. Not really much to this post. Just a little rant. Gonna try my best to get back to it Monday night, since I only work in the morning.

At least your excuse is working and not playing video games or something unproductive like that.  The biggest plus is that you have identified the issue and called yourself out about it.  Wholesaling is difficult at first as it takes a tremendous amount of upfront effort before you see the reward.  Stick with it and give it a fair chance.  If you do there may be a time when working over time is actually costing you more money than its worth, imagine that.
