Quotables
“Sometimes it’s really hard to get started, but the second that I made that offer and had it under contract, it’s like the mental block is gone.”
“The big thing is the conversations that you’re going to have everyday, it’s on-the-job training. I was learning to be a better investor and I didn’t even know it.”
“Help someone else get started and believe me, it’s gonna keep going. You’re gonna learn so much more just from teaching as well.”
