2020 is coming to an end

I  had one goal this year which is to close on a 8-20 apartment unit.

I haven't given up yet. I know that anything can happen in 3 weeks. My team can call the right seller tomorrow and all of a sudden we have a property under contract .

I am like Kobe bryant. I can be down 4 points, but as long as there is time on the clock I'm going to keep shooting.

I did everything in my power my first year of my quest of my first apartment deal:

1) got a mentor

2)studied and worked my butt off

3) invested in myself

4) woke up everyday at 430am

5) stayed in touch with brokers

6) got over my fear of making cold calls

7)  hired/built my team to generate leads for me

8) followed up with sellers (calls, emails, videos, letters, etc)

9) analyzed and made offer on several deals

My mind is racing what could I have done better?

I'm going to sleep now going to wake up tomorrow at 430am to take another swing at this.

Regardless what happens I won't give up.

This is to be continued... I'll touch back on this on my birthday (12/30/20)

I had a mentee of mine that started with a goal of purchasing a building in 6 months. He didn't get it done, but continued to push and take the right action steps. Well over a year after we started the journey together, he closed on a 100+ unit apartment deal!

Consistent and persistent action is what it takes. Be patient - you will get there!

Thank you this is very uplifting . Before I go to seep at night and when I wake up in the morning I always vision having 1000 units, my iPhone getting a monthly alert that the $83,333 deposit just hit my account, me handing out cash to the neighborhood kids, and me taking my mom on all expense paid trips. It really keeps my spirit going during hard times. That's why as soon as I wake up at 430am after I meditate and write down my goals the third thing I always do is put on my jewelry. It reminds me what's in store for the future as long as I stay on this marathon.
