@Matthew Irish-Jones

Great advice...I'm writing down "Sometimes you win, sometimes you learn."

@Timothy Swenton

Advice I keep hearing on this thread is to keep going, because there are some wins and there are some losses...and "in the end there will be a great property, a great experience, or both."

Great words, Timothy...thank you for taking the time to encourage a newbie.

Try again...I've heard that over and over in this thread, and I'm grateful it is repeated. I'm putting those words where I will see them every day.

Thank you for taking the time to post a comment...it is so appreciated.

@Craig Clark

Thank you for the incredibly encouraging post. 

My favorite: "FEEL...Focus. Educate. Execute. Learn". Exactly what I'm doing. 

Best wishes to you, as you move along the REI path.

@Rob Milliken

Thank you for the pep talk...I need it!

BP has been a turn-around point for me, with other BP'ers giving advice, encouragement, and wisdom about my little setback. It has been incredibly helpful...and I'm grateful to be part of this community.

@Austin Neal

I'm printing your quote to put on my office bulletin board.

"Experience is what you get when you don't get what you want."

@Marcello I.

You are so right, some things do work out for the best, even if it hurts at the fail point. I'm moving on to the next deal, putting systems and checklists in place, and with a better understanding of taking the long view.

Thank you so much for the comment...I appreciate it more than you know.
