Newbie seeking help to narrow down RE Education

Hello BP Nation,

About 3 weeks ago I decided to jump into RE investing. I began my education by listening to podcast and ordering books, as well as reading the forum posts. While I am getting a great deal of knowledge the topics are so scattered. After a few weeks of digesting information i've come to the conclusion the most valuable things to learn and mastering in RE are Deal Analysis (Finding a good deal) and RE Finance (creative financing).

I'm looking for some direction on what to specifically do to master these two concepts.  A great tip I got was to rewatch the webinars on deal analysis and watch how @Brandon Turner dissects his deals.

I've recently purchased the following books Bigger Pockets "No Money down Investing" and "Rental Property Investing", Start Small profit Big in RE, The Art of the Deal, Rich Dad Poor Dad, All you can do is all you can do but all you can do is enough, as well as Atlas Shrugged for some personal enjoyment. 

Any specific books, podcast, or forums would be greatly appreciated. I believe that I'm on the right track so far but time is valuable. I want to be efficient as possible. 

Thanks in advanced.

Jarrid Williams

Analyze 3 deals a day (@Brandon Turner probably said that before) and let that be your guide to digging into what ever question you uncover.
