flipping houses - step 1 when starting your wholesaling business



Get Your Head On Straight

Look, there's a reason that you're probably broke, frustrated, angry and pessimistic, looking for a new venture to lead you into a better situation.  You created it.  And, there are no victims in life.  So ditch the excuses, like how your parents sucked, or how you didn't like school, or your boss is  holding you back, or so-and-so did you wrong, or whatever.

Get over it.  You're in this position because of one person, and one person, only.

You.

Now that we've gotten that straight, let's talk about the future.  For one, it doesn't matter what you've done, or failed to do, in the past.  The past is the past.  And, it has absolutely nothing to do with your present or future... unless you allow it to.  Any situation can be reversed... quickly... if you so desire.  Up till now, you've desired to be broke and miserable.  Now, it's time to desire something different.

We all get exactly what we desire in life.  There are no coincidences.  There are no bad breaks.  Like an assed-out Lloyd Christmas at the bar... you put out the vibe.  And the universe brought into your life people, situations and circumstances that matched it.

It's time for a new energy, focus and life.  And, here's how you do it.

Create One Major Desire
While you're ditching the excuses, go ahead and ditch the 99 goals and aspirations you wrote down to achieve years ago.  You don't need 99.  You need one.  Search your heart and decide the one thing you want most, right now.  Here's a a hint: "My greatest single desire, right now, is to be financially abundant doing exactly what I love to do."  Write it down.  Look at it daily as a reminder.

Then, create a goal out of it and attach a deadline.  This goal is a short term goal that will help you progress towards your overall desire.  And, when you achieve this goal, you make another one.  ONE.  Not ten...

Visualize Your Success
Create a vision board (dream collage) with all of the abundance you want in life.  Look at it and imagine you already have it.  Imagine you live in that mansion.  Imagine you drive that Mercedes Benz.  Imagine you ride around in that yacht.  And feel the emotion. 

Recite Positive Affirmations That Support Your One Major Desire
No need for 50 affirmations about how you want to be happy, healthy, positive, successful and thin.  Five, or less, will do.  And make sure they are all centered around your one major desire.  Here are some examples:

I am infinite abundance
I am going to be financially abundant doing exactly what I love

Create A Daily Routine And Follow It Religiously... Till You Create A New One
If you don't create a plan, you won't get to your affirmations and visualizations.  Create a daily plan and make sure you adhere to it.  Schedule it, preferably in the morning.  It's a great way to kick your day off...

What you think, feel and believe will determine your life.  If you're poor, you've consistently offered thoughts, feelings and beliefs consistent with financial struggle.  Now, it's time to offer consistent thoughts of abundance.

In addition, you must, must, must believe, with all your being, that everything exists as a possibility for you.  If you don't believe you can become financially free, you won't be.  If you believe rich people are greedy, you won't be rich.  If you have any negative beliefs whatsoever regarding money, your ability to create lots of money and/or people with money... you won't have any.

Follow the instructions above.  Hold money and people with money in a positive light.  And quickly watch your life change for the better.  If you continue down the emotional path you've been on thus far, you won't flip house number one.  And it'll be more of the same...
