I need help with my Real Estate Career.

Hello, I am having troubles with getting things going in my real estate career so far. Its about to be a year since I’ve been in real estate and so far Ive only closed one deal.... This year has basically been a learning experience for me. But the way I’m feeling at this point is very frustrating and confused. I don’t know what to do at this point. I put more money into real estate than what Ive made so far this year and I just don’t want to continue with this journey. I don’t know if I should go to another company or if its just me. Its also hard for me because Im balancing another job I hate with a passion with real estate. But right now I am feeling very alone and Im just hoping some experienced agents could maybe reach out to me through here or via email/text/mobile ANYTHING.... with just some advice or guidance. Thank-you guys!

@Jasmine Williams I have never met a successful part-time agent. I don't know any Realtors who lead their company in sales, transactions, units who are part-time. If you really want to be the best Realtor, you need to commit full time. Create goals for yourself for each month, year, week and day. If the goals do not scare you, they are not big enough. 

My wife is crushing it in real estate so far this year with the help of the Ninja Training method. You can google it, but its a complete real estate solution. There is a book, maybe even groups in your area doing the same thing. So many books out there, no wrong solution, but you really cannot ever be the best, by doing this part-time. I know its scary to branch out on your own, but it will also be the best decision you will ever make......you are the only one who can make it. 

Getting people to work with you as their Realtor is all about trust. Its the largest transaction a person will make. They want to make sure they have the right Realtor in you. So you plant a lot of seeds, water, touch people, touch, touch, its all about the referral and not making mistakes with time wasters. The more deals you do, the better you will get and the more fun you will have. Its a great profession! Best of luck to you!
