GOAL SETTING: 2015 Goals Update. (Closing on 3 more units Thurs)

I cant emphasize enough how important it is to SET GOALS.  And not just come up with them in your head, but physically writing them down on paper and reviewing them a couple times a month.  Over the last year or two, I have been working on my self-growth everyday.  I believe in forming habits that mold you and make you a more productive, successful, and happier person!  One thing that has really helped me get more done in the day is every morning waking up and grabbing my yellow legal pad, dating it, and writing down tasks that need done that day.  I then carry that pad with me in my truck and use it as a running journal of what I need, what I'm doing, and what needs done.  There is true satisfaction physically crossing off items on your list!  

It was these small habits that allowed me to hit my goals for the year 2015.  Some of my goals were as follows:

Acquire a Missouri Realtor License

Move to St. Louis

Buy a Duplex and "House hack" (Thanks @Brandon Turner)

And last but not least, acquire 5 more rental units.

To some of you these might be some pretty easy goals to hit, but for a 21 year old, it's at least a start!  I am happy to say that this Thursday (12-10)  I will be closing on 3 more units allowing me to complete all of my 2015 goals!  Big thanks to BP nation for keeping me motivated! @Joshua Dorkin

Wow @Kyle Grimm that is incredible and I live the notepad idea. I'm 26 and I'm actually hoping to do the exact same thing as you.  Would love to pick your brain sometime on your challenges and things you've learned.

That's also the second time I've heard the "House Hack" term used. Where can I learn more about this?

Congrats man!
