A lot of times I find that people believe success happens after you achieve a result.

I’ll be successful after I’m a real estate investor…

I’ll be successful after I have a million-dollar business…

I’ll be successful after I do this…

I’ll be successful after I do that…

Have you heard any of these before?

Maybe you’ve said these yourself!

The truth is success begins in your mind when you decide to be great!!

When I’m coaching my students, before we get into the specifics on how to invest in real estate, we talk about mindset first. Success requires a different version of yourself that you may not have tapped into before. And once we break through our own limitations, success is inevitable!!

If you’re struggling to believe that you have what it takes, here are 8 ways you can prepare to become successful!

  1. Decide that you are great and you can do ANYTHING that you DECIDE to do!!
  2. Reflect on your gains, not your losses. You are so much further along than you think!
  3. Cut out any negative content, people, or energy. Boundaries are the key!
  4. Seek out community. You will not be able to do this sustainably on your own. We all need help.
  5. To extend on #4, know your strengths and outsource the rest!! (Take the gallup strengthsfinder test if you don’t know what your strengths are)

For example, as an investor, if you know interior design is not your thing, you can hire that task out!

  1. Invest in a GROWTH mindset! Eat healthy foods that fuel you. Get rest. Read books that help you grow. Listen to stories of successful people.
  2. Hire a therapist to work through any trauma or scarcity thinking you may have.
  3. Find a mentor, a business partner, or hire a coach to help you take it to the next level!

There are no shortcuts to your dream life.
