Tips for trying to secure OPM for investments

Hi there I am an aspiring business owner and investor who grew up in a very working class family and one of my biggest mental hurdles is getting over asking people to invest in my investments. For some reason I keep having these feelings of taboo anytime the thought of having to ask people for money. I keep finding myself telling myself to just jailbreak my first property so I don't have to come up with a large down payment, while jailbreaking seems like a great investment tool I feel like I'm telling myself these stories to avoid my fear of asking for money. Has anyone else struggled with this, and if so how did you overcome this issue, because I'm not rich (yet) and OPM is a non-negotiable at a point if I want to hit my goals!
