@Michael Plante thank you!

@Dominick Galinis good quote! I will remember that. Where did you hear that? Or is it your own?

@Dominick Galinis this is exactly the kind of response I was looking for! I relate to that. Thanks for commenting!

@Eric Michiels this is GREAT information! I will gladly accept any of this over DM. Thank you so much! I love that people are so willing to share their knowledge and experience. That is how I plan to be. I believe in encouraging people and giving back. I love that I joined BP. My hope in humanity is restored a bit 😅. I'm starting to understand why I'm scatching my head at the majority of people that I encounter (in life in general). I see now that my mentality is set up for success and I'm a minority (in the way I think). This platform is like a gold mine to me right now! fyi, I live in a small town. Many people in small town have small ideas 💡. Engaging with you all has been exhilarating. I remember talking to a friend a while back about all these ways to make money. She just looked and me and laughed and said "you know all these ridiculous ideas are unrealistic, just get a normal job and your life will be easier". I told her that sounded like dying slowly to me and I WILL not 🤣. This thread has been great. Thank you all! I will be asking some more questions soon!

Curious! Everyone has goals. That is a must for success, period. I'm wondering how detailed you are with your planning? Are you someone who believes the more detailed the goal, the better. Or are you the type that plans your next move with a specific direction in mind yet let's your intuition guide you move by move? How planned out is your business plan? I'm wondering if anyone thinks being too ridged with planning might stifle creativity and adaptivity? Do any of you have ADHD!? LOL. I'm curious to see the different personalities and how they relate to your business.

@Marc Rice how did you find a mentor? Also what did you exchange for mentorship?

@Eric Michiels "never dispare no matter what happens" best advice ever. It's completely a waste of time. I've learned this about life in general, parenting, failures etc

@Marc Rice would that be considered wholesaling? The deal that you found with your friend? How did you pay 50%?

@Edward Dandrea what an awesome story! I'm hearing a lot about people having their own business or a good job before they started real estate. I'm still not sold on the wholesaling gig. I'm obsessed with finding a creative way to start this process. I've work on myself the past 2 years. I invested time in my mental health and my focus and put any thinking of a career aside. It was a good thing I did. Now I feel strong enough to build something! I purposely decided to do things this way. A house will fall without a good foundation. Same with an empire. My foundation involved my mind. I also went through a messy separation from my marriage etc etc lol. But I'm so glad that I'm ready to start making money. I've had to hold myself back and refocus intentionally for 2 years!

@Eric Michiels this is amazing advice! Thank you. This is just naturally what I've been thinking is priority so that makes me feel like I'm in the right field. It must take A LOT of trust AND interest to get that kind of backing. Could you explain more specifically how you put yourself out there? We're you an agent? How did you get your foot in the door in real estate? I'm very curious about your story! Thanks for commenting
