From, The One Thing by Gary Keller:"One evening an elder Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside all people.  

So I was just reading through the book Battle Cry of Freedom by James Mcpherson about the Civil War, and came across this section and thought it was interesting how many people's mindset in the early years of our country seems to have been similar in some ways to the folks here at BP who are pursing or have achieved financial freedom :).  

This veteran (my longtime beau & I are living with currently) is a Retired Marine going thru major health battles, who has mobility issues & can't really do any major or minor chores or heavy lifting.

But as far as finding a mentor that is really half the battle that itself is huge!

Thanks for the discussion, battling similar issue myself.  

I lost the battle, but I wanted to turn that situation into a learning experience and ask my out-of-state bigger pockets investors what strategy they look for in an agent?  

At the same time these amazing officers and sergeants that can lead a group succesfull into battle are the ones that let people move into houses without giving security deposits etc.

I see how it's an uphill battle for sure.

You would have to find a lawyer to fight this battle for you.  

now my next battle is finder a lender the would count my 1099 income of one year.
