Becoming a real estate investor in Michigan because you want to make more money is a good reason.
Becoming a real estate investor in Michigan because you want to quit your job and be your own boss is even a better reason.
Becoming a real estate investor in Michigan because you want to make more money and really enjoy “the business” of finding, fixing and flipping foreclosures is the best reason of it all.
If you don’t enjoy what you do in your business – whether real estate investing in Michigan or something else – I just can’t see you getting what you want out of it.
People talk a lot about being afraid of losing money, yet very few ever buy a countdown clock and look at the clock ticking away, with seconds and minute gone that will never come back. Life is long but not long enough to do things that you really don’t like doing for half of the day, every day, five days a week for 30 years.
How would you know that you have found something that you love doing?
You will be so excited about looking at houses, buying houses, getting them spiffy up, selling them in your local Michigan city that you will have a hard time sleeping at nights or you are going to go to sleep at 12:37 in the morning and wake up at 5:30am, thinking about sneaking to your home office downstairs – which is what happened to me this morning.
“ I cant sleep at nights because I am so excited about doing this” is a sentence that comes often from QuickStart grads – “Cashflow” Dennis and Rodney “Red Bull” Townsend both reported very successful 30 days with no desire to go to sleep. I am happy for them. That is a good sign!
I have noticed it in my own business too. When I am not excited about doing something and the ONLY reason I am doing it to make money – I can sleep at nights and wake up late. No hurry. Almost 100% of the time – I end up giving up on the idea. It is NOT a bad idea, just not for me.
When I am excited about something, truly, in the guts, cant sleep at night excited, I will stay up late at nights reading about it, minor frustrations don’t bother me, and I will do everything that I can do to make that dream become a reality because I am so energetic about the deal. Just doing anything for money could be done but it is much easier to actually “like” doing the deals, have fun doing the business.
It is a new year. We should all try very hard to find something that we would love to do every day.
Life, liberty and pursuit of happiness.
Right?
