As someone who is just starting to my journey, it is a bit daunting. It's thinking about 5 steps further down the line than I need to be at this moment and holding myself back because of that. It's being so new that this is all very, very exciting, but having to tell yourself to slow down and analyze before you start making crazy mistakes. It's knowing that even with hard money and equity available for more deals, the need to get your first deal as a success feels so heavy. It's listening to so many success stories that you over analyze and get that paralysis. It's a mind game that is hard to beat with being so new. This all makes me feel that I haven't yet learned enough to do this, but feeling that this won't go away until I pull the trigger on that first deal. 

-someone who is actively looking for their first deal :-)

p.s. hope this help you channel us newbs
