Instructors are a wealth of knowledge and you can propel yourself forward when armed with the right education. 

I'm currently using Proper Insurance and have also received a quote from Propel Insurance.

I agree with @David Thompson that hiring a coach who has success doing exactly what I want to achieve has given me direction and actionable steps to propel me to my goals much faster than I would have on my own.

It sounds like you have some great experience that is going to continue to propel you forward towards your goal. 

.- the homeowner next door not liking renters however I wouldn't want to place bad tenants eitherI don't know that this would be a strategy to propel me towards my investing goals however if the numbers are great they may be instrumental along the way.

I've heard good things about Lead Propeller.

It drives you, it propels you to sacrifice, to satisfy this need.What is your Passion?

This is actually a huge topic that I don't think gets enough attention.One thing I'd suggest is to figure out which specific actions will result in you making money, and focus 100% of your time and resources there.For instance, DON'T waste your precious time and resources on things like:Updating your logo, letter head, business cards and websiteMaking daily/weekly posts on social mediaCreating complex spreadsheets that do complicated calculations that don’t add any real value to your bottom lineBuilding a following on Twitter and FacebookBuying a top-of-the-line computer system, printer, external hard drive, office desk, smart phone, etcThese things don't directly result in money in your pocket - so don't put them at the top of your priority list.DO spend your precious time and resources on things like:Generating leadsResearching properties and learning how to identify when you’ve found a deal worth pursuingSending out offers every dayEstablishing adequate sources of funding for your dealsFind buyers for the properties you’re trying to sellMaking connections and staying in contact with people who will help propel your business forwardThese things very likely will result in you making money - so spend as much time of your time and resources on these items as possible.Managing the day job and the night job can be a huge challenge, no doubt about it...

It just goes to show that providing value is what really propels growthHow about starting a challenge that people can sign up for - Beat BP to Seven Figures!
