I am also very interested in building a big network of people, were we will all be able to help each other out and share the motivation, success stories, triumphs and failures.

Any other wisdom or thoughts in general that I haven't specified, please feel free to comment below.Excited to keep moving forward with this project, I'll be sure to post updates, challenges and triumphs in relevant threads. 

A couple others that I haven't seen mentioned are:- "The eMyth" by Michael Gerber - "The Obstacle is the Way, The Timeless Art of Turning Trials into Triumph" by Ryan Holiday- "The Art of the Deal" by Donald TrumpEnjoy!

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”Good luck!

Could some sensei out there with experiences in Leftover Liens share their triumphs?

I just don't see such triumphs being celebrated as they aren't really triumphs in good business practices.

The triumphs (Yes, I did just score a closeout deal on product that actually matches the design and adds $800 to the bottom line) and the Marketing and selling (which is where the fun really begins).

MJ, I'd love to buy you a beer in celebration of today's triumphs!

In business, I have seen that a mentors history of others triumphs and failures can be learned from. have a good job to raise the capital for the seed money, and on the night and week ends go find a real estate mentor and work with him/her for a while and see if you even like doing real estate work. maybe even become a professional and get a real estate license. then once you are confident in what you know. you will have the seed money for the deposit of the house and get your team together of buying properties and you are on your way to success.
