Wow I hadn't realized how long I've been away. I feel like Bill Buckner walking back in to Shea Stadium.
I've definitely been busy although there was about a 3 week stretch where I hadn't put any letters in the mail. I mailed out 200 late last week and this time I printed out an insert that gives my website, e-mail, and mailing address in case someone doesn't feel comfortable calling.
I'm very close to closing on a deal, the one I've been working since January. My contractor is going by tomorrow do get me a detailed scope of work. I'm strongly considering rehabbing it vs. wholesaling it.
I've come to learn just how precious a commodity time is and how hard it is to do anything significant outside of a 45hr/week job. The main reason I've been missing from BP is that posting and reading here is not "the most important thing I could be doing" and I'm trying to make what I've come to call my "Money Time" as productive and focused on my "Money Tasks" as possible.
I've also moved out my now officially ex-gf, found out my best friend who was moving in is moving 1600 miles back to RI, and prepared for a move of my own that I wasn't expecting. Not to mention slipped on the stairs carrying a couch and fractured a bone spur on my knee that I didn't know I had.
I'm really trying follow this CD set from Brian Tracy about goals and planning. In my opinion it's the best material I've come across on the subject and it's been working well.
The basic premise sounds so simple, yet it is so profound. It is to write down your goals daily, make plans to achieve them, and work on your plans every single day.
There's much more to it than that, but that's the main idea.
I started getting up at 5am so that I have an hour of money time before work and I make sure the night before I have written my plan for the next day in my notebook that I now carry with me everywhere.
I'll try to make sure I check in more regularly going forward I know I can make time. I hope you're all doing well!!
