Real Estate Investing and Watermelons
By Tony Severino on Jun 11, 2010 in Investor Training, Kicks In The Backside
My mon sent me a picture this morning… of a square watermelon and it got me thinking about our business as real estate investors and lisa’s as a Realtor.
It seems folks in Japan have small compact fridges, and the growers out there, have the watermelons out there growing in glass boxes to form themselves in a box, so they fit in the fridges… pretty ingenious on one hand, kinda freaky to mess with nature on the other
YOu see, some people want the real estate business, both the buying and selling side to be like that watermelon, to be able to fit in a box. and to be honest it doesn’t work that way at all. We have to be flexible to the seller’s needs, and the buyers issues. It is your job to be creative and FLEXIBLE. If you can’t, your toast.
I am in a seminar right now, as I write this learning another tool for my tool box. I firmly believe in making solid investments in my Real estate Investing education. I learned to that when I was broke… by becoming broker by spending money I didn’t have. Hey it works in Washington, why not at my kitchen table?
Well, by learning and investing in myself, we grew, and our business model succeeded. I wasn’t easy at times.. sometimes it was very hard both financially and physically, but I frickin did what it took….
Now I didn’t plan on having a replay from Wednesdays Webinar.. I really didn’t. But I got several emails asking of I could because folks were at church, or watching the hockey game… church I get, …hockey… well???
So here’s what I got… we did record it.. and you can hop on over and check it out…Fair?

“Be creative and FLEXIBLE” …I love it, bro. So, so true. And it can start with something as simple as changing the way you talk. Saying “How can I make this work?” rather than “This won’t work” – you ask a question, and your subconscious mind craves (and begins searching for) an answer. It’s the way God wired us.
Thanks for posting, bro. Enjoy the seminar and be sure to share something juicy you learned when you get back.

Tony — Thanks for posting the replay. I was really wanting to listen to this, but we had our MMM Challenge group call at the same time
