Harriet Tubman realized her dream and you can realize yours, too. Here’s step one:

After looking at hundreds of flips, and doing flips, I gained some insight as I saw a pattern develop. If you want to succeed at flipping house, here is a checklist I encourage you to use . . .

“Money is just an idea.” I like that quote and it’s something I believe! Recently a friend challenged my thinking when I used it: “That may be the dumbest thing you have ever said. ‘Money is just an idea’ is simply baloney,” he said. “There is no way having an idea will pay the rent or put gas in the car.” I read a book that caught my attention several years ago . . .

As a sales professional, you know how important it is to stay positively focused.

As a real estate professional, I know things are always changing and there is a bottomless hole from which discouragement and troubling outcomes radiate. Sometimes we have a tendency to allow events out of our control to dictate our happiness and success, or lack of those, as we sharpen our focus on something or someone to blame. There’s no magic pill that will make you happy or successful. The simple fact is . . .

The difference between those with goals and those who achieve them is very simple. Success comes to those who have a system they utilize to help them arrive at the desired destination.

If you want to succeed (however you define success), you have to take an active role in your own future. Don’t allow others to dictate your success.

In America, we have been taught to seek success. The subject of success is pushed more forcefully to us in sales and marketing. There is always one more objective or one more step forward we are encouraged to attain. Success, success, success! I write and teach a lot about success.
