Solid Brandon. Sound logic. Thanks for the input!!

Thanks guys! All of this info is more than helpful! I've been listening to the podcasts like crazy and love the golden nuggets that I get from then on a daily basis! I have been thinking of going the wholesaling route mainly because of the cash I can get from the deals to build capital. I've also been working on building the mindset that if I do that I have to do it correctly! Mainly to make sure that I can sleep at night knowing that im providing value to people and to build a network of investors that are willing to work with me on future projects as well. I'm thinking that a want to mainly focus on multifamily after I get rolling because of the residual income but obviously I have a lot to learn before I get to that stage. 

Other than remembering your "Why?" what did you guys use in the beginning stages to keep yourself motivated? I feel like sometimes I see so much potential in REI and what it could do for me that I almost overwhelm myself with the thoughts. I get to a point to where I start scare myself and start to talk myself out of doing anything ! Not like Analysis Paralysis (although I experience that as well sometimes), but more of a fear of the unknown I guess. Whether good or bad. How do you push through that??? And what are some things you guys do to build a strong mindset for success for something like this?

i love it! thanks!!1

Hey guys! My name is Ian Hill and I recently moved to the Dallas/ Fort Worth area about 5 months ago. I stumbled upon real estate investing from a YouTube video and got "The Bug". I've started studying different strategies, started reading some books, joined my local REIA , and met a few people in the process. My issue is that I don't know if I need to start with a strategy like wholesaling to build capital that will eventually allow me to invest in rental/multi family or if there a different way to go about this? I'm highly committed, but I feel as if I lack direction. Any and all input is accepted and appreciated!

PS: If there is ANYONE in the area that would like to meet up and bounce ideas or talk business and strategies coffee will be provided! lol
