Bridging the Gap Between Learning and Doing

Do you remember being a kid, envisioning what the day you'd get your driver's license would be like? You wanted that little piece of plastic more than almost anything in the world. It meant freedom from everything that you felt was holding you back – unfair parental rules, long bicycle rides and embarrassing walks – and you believed that once you had it everything would change. There was only one problem: You didn't know the first thing about driving a car. So how did you bridge the gap between walking or riding a bike and driving a car?

That's right: Driver's Education.

As a fledgling real estate investor, you feel the same anticipation. When you sit and daydream about investing, your pulse quickens, your eyes glaze over, and you begin to imagine what your life will be like when you're able to firmly state for anyone who cares to listen, "I'm a successful real estate investor."

So what's stopping you?

You have some basic knowledge that you've picked up from a book, a seminar, or a course, but you still don't have the confidence to proceed with your plans and your dreams. To you, success is a million miles away, and bridging the gap between knowing and doing seems like a Herculean feat. And to top it off, what you know is that you don't know nearly enough.

The situation isn't hopeless!

What you need to do is find a way of harnessing the raw knowledge that you currently have, spinning it around in you head, and applying it in your life. Knowledge is not power. Applied knowledge is power. In order to tap into that power you need to accumulate enough of a real estate background to feel comfortable in moving forward. You can do it, but it will take a commitment to reaching your goals. If you don't believe you know enough to make it work, you have to build a bridge to the knowledge that can free you from the shackles of financial mediocrity.

By tapping into the resources of a mentor whose been there and done it, you can learn everything you need to know to unlock your success. Real estate investing, when done correctly, is a series of fluid movements that get you closer to the wealth that you envision in your future.

If your credit isn't as strong as you'd like it to be, you'll need to improve your FICO score. You've heard there are certain steps you can take to do this, but you're clueless as to how to proceed. The current investing field is littered with the shattered dreams of investors who ignored solid advice and then lost everything when their cash flow couldn't support their monthly debt service on their rental property. How do you know a solid investment opportunity from a dud that you should walk away from from the start? A mentor can answer all of these critical questions with solid advice and firm guidance.

You may be at a different stage of your investing career. You may have a fair amount of knowledge, but lack just one or two of the fundamentals necessary to put it all together. Fortunately, the knowledge you need can be delivered to you on a silver platter with the help of the real estate industry's best hands-on learning opportunities.

A real estate property tour, which takes place in cities all across America, is a great hands on learning opportunity. You have the opportunity to work with a mentor directly, where you are taken by the hand and shown the process step by step. You're also introduced to a team of folks that will assist you every step of the way and then given the tools you need to take to capitalize on the boundless opportunities available in today's real estate market. You'll learn how to analyze a deal, how to go beyond the simple numbers crunching and really delve into the nuts and bolts of a winning real estate transaction by learning from not only your mentor, but a variety of industry professionals who each bring to the table core competencies so critical to your success.

Your success is within reach. By crossing the bridge we have built for you, opportunity is within your reach, and you can reach your dream of real estate investing success. Today can be the day that you begin the short drive towards bridging the gap from your reality to your destiny.
