Making slow progressive steps

I’m officially going on record. I feel that if I talk it up enough and do something about it, it will happen. I joined BiggerPockets about a week ago (maybe 2..I’m not sure). That was my first step. Then through a conversation I posted about starting out, a member suggested I should take about 30 days to truly figure out what I want to do in the real estate field. So I’m taking that approach. I’m currently educating myself through some books I found in my library. After narrowing down my choices, I decided to start with but and hold investing. Now that I’ve done that, I’m reading the book on rental investing (Brandon Turners book). I’m also working on getting my financial house in order. I know these are baby steps but I’d rather go in educated than go in with no knowledge. That being said..the 30 days of education and financial fixes I’m doing will hopefully prepare me on my next 30 day step...finding deals, getting my investment team together (lender, contractor, I already have my license as an agent, etc), networking as much as I can. I know this post is lengthy but this is my process. I wrote it down in my wish book as well. So that’s where I’m at right now. I’ll write another thread in 30 days.✌🏽

PS any advice on buy and hold will be helpful and considered!
