Real Estate Investing and Goal Setting
What is the primary reason for success most people have that
seems to elude unsuccessful people? Goal setting is the primary
reason for success. Lack of proper planning is the number one
reason for failure. Proper goal setting involves setting a
business plan in place for your life. Too many people this
doesn't sound fun or sounds tedious. In practice though, goal
setters have more time freedom, more money, and more success in
all areas of their lives than those who don't. Well it's no
different with real estate investing. Real Estate Investing must
be treated as a business and it requires planning that anyone
can do. Much like an airplane pilot who goes through a
pre-flight checklist, the real estate investor must go through
many steps for every real estate deal. You must market to find
the deal, do your research on the property to establish a value,
have your contracts ready, make your offer, schedule a closing,
have title work done, prepare your financing, get property
insurance, etc. The reason the doers make money is because so
many people aren't ready to make money. Real estate investing
seems like pie in the sky until you put your plan down on paper
and it starts to crystallize. The planning process itself should
give you renewed energy. Before I daily setup my plan I didn't
want to get out of bed each day, but now I get up ready to work
on knocking out my plan every day. Set your plan up into baby
steps that you can review

and knock out every single day. Your
daily plan must include marketing to get motivated sellers to
contact you. Regardless of the deals you have in the works, if
your marketing stops, you will go through long dry spells. Even
with consistent marketing you will have periods with few leads
and periods where you are just swamped with sellers offering you
great deals.
Constant daily review of your goals is critical. This is why so
many suggest taping your goals on your bathroom mirror so you
see it when you wake up and again before you go to bed. You can
even buy giant poster sized post it notes that you can write
your goals on and stick them on your wall. Reviewing your goals
before going to sleep at night causes your brain to dream about
your goals and program them into memory. So put your goals down
on paper and start putting your real estate investing plan into
action.
