Yes like Min said, its great to have a plan but I would say the action is much more important - I did a few bad deals and learned so much more than I would have if I was just sitting on the sideline planning things. 

Random actions have random results. 

I think the confidence to take action in a smart way is built on all of these things.

But it's good you are taking action there to get more knowledge.

Take your time to explore the different strategies, and when you're ready, you’ll have the knowledge to take action confidently.

If you ask about a city in Kansas and three agents from Kansas answer and all have some call-to-action, they have business to gain from their answer.

That is the best course of action.

If you clear your head to the idea that it is possible to lose money, but that there are ways to mitigate the possible downsides, you will be much more likely to take action. 

And it all thus incentivizes the correct future actions of others. 

It's possible what you have done on your own isn't even to code or done correctly so you could be losing value if you haven't been careful.It's great that you took action.
