It’s so mental but if you have stuffed feelings of hatred against the successful people you see you actually are also going to judge your future self for becoming successful and likely sabotage it before you get there. 

Typically, homeowners who lost everything are going to be in shock and not going to be in that mental headspace right away.

Agreed, I share the same mentality.

I’m a complete rookie and novice in real estate investing, and I firmly believe in the “crawl before you walk or run” mentality.

Many people have limiting beliefs, a mental barrier that prevents someone from achieving their goals or living fully, so they sabotage any hopes of progress through words or actions.

Mentally it's hard to buy into a dipping market, but I think that's where a lot of money is made longterm. 

If we adopt this mentality, then all OB/GYN doctors should be female and have children.

We embrace S8 applicants, but screen them just like any other applicant.Many have an entitlement mentality and try to leverage their S8 voucher by pretending to be helpless:1) A percentage won't apply because they expect a landlord to waive application fees for them.2) Many cry broke and expect a landlord NOT to charge them a security deposit.3) Many of those same S8 tenants trying to avoid paying a security deposit, won't make an effort to call the list of nonprofits we send them that will pay their security deposit if they apply.4) A lot of them try to avoid paying for utilities.

If that is the path moving forward we will be left without a home as of 9/21/24 which will create incredible financial, mental, and physical stress on our part.

It has brought me into a great depression mentally as I have to start all over... but its hard talking and trusting people now.
