I am a commercial real estate broker as well as an investor.I would say what has made me successful is the WILL to never QUIT.When I get on a workout machine I go for an hour doing cardio.Most will do 15 minutes,some 30,a few 45,hardly any will go 60.When I run a marathon my mind wants to quit before the body but I push on.The last part of finishing takes the most mental toughness and a will not to quit.You will need this skill in real estate.Making a deal happen will be like being on a roller coaster with many highs and lows.It has taken me a year to close a deal before.When I was assembling land deals I had to talk to the owners sometimes 50 times and it took 6 months to agree to terms and get under contract for the developer I was working with.It will take a lot of time and blood,sweat and tears in the beginning but it will build toughness and character.Remember if it was easy anyone would do it.Their is competition in EVERYTHING you do.You have to find something you enjoy and then strive everyday to be the best at it.Work it like a business and constantly gain more knowledge and develop systems to maximize your time.When I close a hard deal that takes a long time I get a great satisfaction that I made a deal work that many would have just quit on.
