I’m a very new investor into real estate. I am trying to read every book I can get my hands on, listen to every podcast, mix that with taking advice from those books, podcast, etc., I feel as if analysis paralysis has set in before I even get started. I’m looking for maybe any advice you can give to a novice on how to take action? Thank you in advance!

I have seen a lot of seasoned investors say, start with the money. If you get financing for whatever you are trying to do, it will make it real and start the process. Know what you are looking for, check Brandon's Crystal Clear Criteria.

Find someone that will hold you accountable to start taking action and set a penalty if you don't. Use this to motivate yourself. Mental game is hard. Good luck.

@Lee Judd I just finished reading “Atomic Habits” by James Clear, and he talks about that strategy. Accountability partner and habit tracking! Thank you for the advice!

Thank you @Stephen DeThample! I will definitely be checking Brandon’s criteria and have some capital to get started right now. I’m just trying to learn more but I need to take action!
