It is when people put the self placed “roadblocks” in front of them and are too scared to dip their toes in.This is something that has been really resonating with me after going to a few 2 and 3 day events from a couple of the local guys in our market recently.It isn’t necessarily the actual tactical real estate that is the hard part, but the bigger challenge is actually believing that we are capable of doing it and taking action towards that.
