Real Estate Investing LIES Unveiled
By Steve Majors
Let's get REAL about something - and quelch the LIES you have been told about
Real Estate Investing…
What I am going to reveal to you are some basic truths about Real Estate
investing - truths that may totally affect the Real Estate investments you have
now - and certainly I intend to modify the way you do Real Estate investing in
the future.
Let's get right to it - and into the heart of the real estate investing
issue…
You have been programmed all your life to become what you are today - from
school, friends, relatives and, yes, your parents.
Recent studies show that you are who you are now, more from what you learned
prior to age 8 than in anything else you have learned since.
Now, that may surprise you, but it is true that what you learned at the
earliest ages affects the way you make Real Estate investments today, and the
type of Real Estate investing success you will have going forward!
Yes, that's a bit shocking…
You see, if you grew up in an environment where you heard things like "We
can't afford it", "Be sure you have saved enough and have the cash to buy it
(i.e., never use credit)" or numerous other phrases that you now hear yourself
saying (you know what I'm talking about - those times you catch yourself
"becoming your parents"…), it is because of your early programming (from 0-8
years) and what you were told about money, success and life in general.
It is controlling your current income - and your success - or lack of
it...
The things you were told at that early, most influential age, are now
creeping out and affecting how successful you are in business, in life and yes,
in your Real Estate investing.
THERE IS GOOD NEWS
The greatest thing about this fact - as horrible as it seems - is that you
can change the 'programming' - you have the power to do it!
You can reprogram yourself in any way you want - have anything you want - do
anything you want…
All it takes is simply to 'reinstall' the right kind of thinking.
And, it is easier than you might think!
One of the best ways to do that is to get a CD audio set from someone you
like to listen to - someone that thinks positively and speaks of the life you
want to live. Many home study courses are available (including mine) that
are designed to inspire and motivate you, while they teach you the methods and
secrets of real estate investing.
Purchase one - listen to it, over and over - until you hear yourself speaking
that way, too.
You see, we are all simply creatures of habit and environment - if we allow
junk to get into our heads, all we will ever say is junk coming out.
If all you listen to is the bad stuff in life (like the TV news, most 'talk
radio' shows, those TV 'real life' shows that end up in fights - you know the
ones…, and even violent movies where the language is nothing you'd ever expect
to hear from your own lips…), that is exactly what you will wind up sounding
like!
It is true - 'you are what you eat' - and that counts just
as much for what you put in your ears as it does for what you put in your
mouth!
If you spend your time around 'bar people', you'll speak and act like
them. Not that there's anything wrong with that, as long as you made a
conscious thought that it is what you want, but I think you'd be much more
successful at Real Estate investing if you were listening to a successful person
teaching you about Real Estate Investing!
Now, let's get right to the point about the various methods and concepts you
have learned about Real Estate Investing…
You may call yourself a 'real estate investing expert', but if you have to
get up every morning and wonder where your next check is coming from, you aren't
making real estate investments, you are being employed in a Real Estate
Investing JOB!
Yes, that's a hard-hitting statement.
You see, I want you to 'get real' with yourself and simply admit it - Real
Estate investing is when you put money into a Real Estate investment and then
get some money out - 'real estate investing' defined…
Yet, it seems that most people I meet want to attend my real estate training
or purchase my real estate courses that have to do with 'No Money Down' (NMD)
"real estate investing"…
Now, that kind of talk just proves the point - you can reprogram yourself to
speak a different language - even if it doesn't make sense!
A bunch of 'gurus' have told you over and over again that 'No Money Down' is
real estate investing - even though you learned at an early age that 'invest'
means to put money into something and get money out (see http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=invest
for other definitions - none of them say 'No Money Down'...)
Now, it's not that 'NMD Real Estate investing' is all bad - heck, my students
and I make several thousand dollars from these types of 'Real Estate investing'
transactions every year, too.
Just don't lie to yourself and say they are 'real estate investments', we
know very clearly that these are simply 'earned income' from one portion of your
real estate investing business - the real estate 'job' portion - earned while in
transition from your 'corporate job' to your 'real estate investing job' and on
the road to true Real Estate Investing.
In other real estate investing articles, I cover some of the methods and
techniques you, too, can explore while moving from your 'corporate job' to your
'real estate investing job' and you'll learn some insider secrets for taking
that leap quickly. About the Author Steve Majors - The Lazy Investor
