Re-defining my "Why" for success...

[Ali Samana]

I have been away from the forums for a couple of weeks, so I thought I would post a quick update.

My wife and I had our first child. Anaya Samana was born on June 15th 2010.

As a financial counselor to many US Navy members I get asked many times "How do you become financially successful?" I have always replied that once a person discovers their "why", the hows will fall into place. In a sense, if you have a strong enough reason to be financially successful, you would walk through a brick wall to get there.

I thought I had my Why figured out, that was until I held that baby for the first time. My motivation for towering success has never been stronger and I am looking forward to achieving it faster than I ever thought possible.

The "why" should always be "to be financially free" to do whatever you want without having to worry about vacation time, getting back to work, how much it costs, etc. With that said then comes the hard part - "How". The how should start with a good base of self-education on every aspect of real estate. Find the specific area that is of the most interesting to you. You then concentrate all of your education on this specific area. Design a system that fits your needs in your specific area and Implement your plan. This is the "why" that many people end up failing - they do not turn off the TV and computer and implement their plans!!
