Gurus are like Diets

[Mark Vandzura]

Let me explain. I've struggled with weight my whole life. I'm not obese but I've always been slightly overweight. I've been on many diets and my weight goes down and it goes up again. What I have come to beleive is that EVERY diet works, IF YOU FOLLOW IT. That's right you have to follow it. Whether you go on the Atkins diet, or the plant based diet , Jenny craig, Slimfast, weight watcher, or fit for life, you WILL lose weight if you do what your supposed to do. It doesn't happen overnight. You have to be consistent and stick to it. Don't give up!

The same is true of the Gurus. They all have a system. They made money investing in real estate with that system. And now they're going to sell you their system (Usually for a lot of money). Just like a diet, the system will work, IF YOU FOLLOW IT. Whether it's Dean Grasioso, Kent Clothier, Than Merrill, Anthony Charro, or Rod Khlief, you WILL make money if you do what your supposed to do. It doesn't happen overnight, you have to be consistant and stick to it. Don't give up!

Just like you can't drink a slimfast shake for breakfast and then have a whole large pizza and a 2 liter bottle of coke for lunch and expect to lose weight; you also can't just put up three "we buy houses" bandit signs and send out 50 yellow postcards and then not follow up an any leads or even worse not get any leads and then give up because you didn't become a millionaire overnight.

I'm not advocating gurus. I'm just saying that the system works, but only if you do. Whether you pay a guru for their system or learn everything you can here on bigger pockets, you will make money, you can be financially free, quit your job, escape the rat race, etc. but YOU have to do the work.

Tell me your thoughts.

God bless,
