Hello there Simon-Welcome to biggerpockets and please feel free to browse through all of the forums and threads.

If you want to be a real real estate professional, find one to immulate, like Herb, Mel or David Simon, goggle those names and see what you find!

I remember a story by Tony Robbins where he was talking about Carly Simon and Bruce Springsteen:Carly was talking about her anxiety and fear before she went on stage.

@Zac Simons thanks for the response.
