10 minute trick to get extremely motivated

I'm sure I'm not the only one using some self-help tips to be more successful.

Today I did something very fun that really got me extremely motivated to commit and take action on my real estate investing goals and dreams.

If you have ever been stuck or fearful to move forward, every other guru you meet will tell you to visualize your goals as complete, everyday. The promise is if you do too his you will activate your subconscious to find a way to make your visualizations a reality.

I took this a step further today while I was on a walk. I took out my phone and pretended I was talking to a potential investment partner and I explained to him the vast portfolio of various real estate investments I owned outright or with partners. I was also walking through a multi-family neighborhood. As I told my imaginary friend the details of my growing cashflow, rehabing large apartment buildings and cashing out the equity, my personal investment team as well as my board of directors for my more elaborate deals... on and on I went, all while imagining I was walking through one of the many neighborhoods I own.

This really got me invigorated, and it felt real! I'm in the process of aquiring my first 4plex, and this little excercise has me pumped to work on my next deal.

I'm going to take this a step further and have as real friend call me and ask me questions about my success, as if has already happened... I have a feeling I'll be actualizing my goals in record time if I keep myself highly energized and motivated to succeed.

How do you get/stay motivated, and laser focused on your goals?
