How You Feel About Yourself Is How You Show Up as a Real Estate Investor

[Jonathan Greene]

Many investors wonder why they can't take the first or the next step, but the reason is usually not as related to real estate or analysis paralysis as they think. It usually has to do with how they feel about themselves. Confidence.

Real estate confidence can come from networking with other real estate investors at meetups and realizing that most investors aren't on social media. They are just like you: working jobs, parents, side hustling, wearing sandals, and driving a Prius. But there's more to it than real estate confidence.

If you don't feel good about yourself as a person, as a human, you won't be at your best as a real estate investor. You will likely make bad decisions because of that. You will trust too quickly (hire a fake guru) or never trust at all (analysis paralysis) and find yourself stagnating.

If you aren't working on yourself as a person, you aren't working on your business. You will be best as a real estate investor when you feel your best as a human. Both take a lot of work, but when they are done together, that is when you uncap your potential.

What do you think?

People love to talk numbers, assets, cities, trends, but they don't talk enough about the personal development behind the investor.
