Mindset and Momentum in Multifamily

[David C.]

I have watched many BP podcasts, but BP Podcast #416 blew my mind as to how fast the guest (Matt Onofrio) learned/scaled, but also the concept of adopting a particular mindset.  Both @Brandon Turner and Matt spoke about how if they "lost everything they had", they would jump back in just where they left off and not start from the beginning.  

I would ask those who have adopted this confident/unwavering mindset, what helped you overcome obstacles and the "I can't get to that level" thinking?  Experience?  A mentor?  or something else?  

The simple answer I come up with is the Henry Ford quote of "If you think you can or you think you can't - you're right".  

Could others share their own experiences of if/when they had the "How in the world do I get there?" moments of doubt - and how to rise above this.
