Fellow Investor,
Why have you still not done what you said that you where going to do. When we consciously do not do something that we know is best for our real estate investing business the underlying reason is fear.
We know that it is best for our business to set up private investors. We know that it is best for our business to search for buyers everyday. We know that it is best for our business to read and study real estate investment techniques everyday...but do we do it! Why not?
The root is always fear. The fear of the unknown is learned early on in our childhood. We say that we want so many things consciously but out behaviors show that unconsciously maybe we don't....or are we just afraid of the unknown. It always feels better to stay where you are comfortable....even if you don't like where you are. Sound contradictory right? I know...but that's the challenge. You must realize that in order to get what you want out of your real estate investing career you are going to have to get uncomfortable..real uncomfortable. If you feel comfortable in what you are doing, then you probably aren't doing much. You have to be willing to stretch yourself and step into that which is not familiar to you. Is there a person that you always depend on...stop...do it yourself. Is there only one method that you use for moving your properties...stop...learn another. Have you been putting off setting appointments for private lending...stop...set the appointment. Have you been putting off even starting your real estate investing career....come on now...you know what I'm going to say.
Sit down today and ask yourself "What have I been avoiding?". After you have answered to this question ask yourself "What do I fear in this area?" "Is this FEAR, false evidence appearing real? Are you trying to leave yourself an excuse for failure? Are you afraid of rejection? Here's the good news, once you figure out what it is that you are doing or not doing to stop you from getting what you really want out of real estate investing...you can change it. Hey, what do you have to lose. You can only improve your business and yourself by facing these fears. Everyone does it...but until you STOP...you will never achieve what you truly desire.
