A plan that makes sense

[Marcus McCauther]

I recently read (about a month ago) Brandon Turner's 7 years to 7 figure wealth and wow, he really nailed it! This motivated me to make a plan of my own, and so I set out to do so. I was almost instantly stopped by the thought of being realistic. I realize without a plan I'll get no where, but after all it has to make sense right? Common sense tells me that I can't make $100,000 in a month, but as a "newbie" it's quite confusing as to what's realistic when investing in real estate. Before writing this question I read a post where a guy was being told by a couple of readers that his plan would have him moving too slow and may potentially miss out on deals. This made the confusion even worse. My question is how do you develop a plan that works for you without over shooting it or not being agressive enough? I admit I even thought about taking Brandon's plan and manipulating it to fit a single family home scenario, but I started to feel that would have been just plan wrong.

Is there anyone who may be able to help me make planning make sense?

Thanks
