Taking time for self-care and nurturing our well-being will empower us to tackle challenges with renewed energy and focus.As we move forward, let's celebrate each milestone, no matter how small, and remain resilient in the face of setbacks.

The energy in person is different for me, and I've made some of my best connections and friends at Chicago meetups.Here is a list of the Chicago event from BP: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521-real-estate-events-...I also have a list of ALL THE CHICAGO MEETUPS that I am happy to share with you. 

Well that's time interest and energy, but I was referring to the Windsor knot 😀

The unique format of this event, which consists of high-level education, gamified networking, mastermind breakout sessions, case studies, group deal analysis, market deep dives, and peer-to-peer coaching facilitation makes this the most impactful local real estate investor group a real estate investor can be a part of.The foundation of the group is built around the belief that everyone in the room has the potential to change the world… however most of us never have the time, energy or financial situation to even dare to dream big enough.

Quote from @Anade Davis: I was not looking to say anything negative but the energy is off.

Should I wait until I can dedicate more energy to this?

Additionally, in my market, a lot of these properties are located in areas where price-to-rent ratios are extremely favorable.
