Flipping Properties and Partying with New People
I was invited to a party the other night however I barely knew anyone who was attending, so in other words, I just did not want to go.
The fact of the matter is that I have been asked to go to parties similar to this in the past where I know basically no one at all, but at my girl friend's insistence, I always end up attending.
What's the reason I did not want to attend?
Through my own thinking I had created a sense of fear about attending the party…without any real basis in reality.
Whenever I thought about the party I pictured myself standing there to the side of the room, earnestly trying to discover something to talk about - and no matter how hard I tried, I always had a hard time connecting with other people that I did not know. I never was able to find common ground, the conversations always seemed so awkward, add in some obnoxious music and I always had a bad time.
As sad as it sounds, that is how I always envisioned my party experiences.
Haven’t we all been to parties like this before?
These are the parties you go to where you think to yourself you would rather actually be having a root canal than suffering through this agonizing torture….
What if I had instead expected a much better and more enjoyable outcome?
Instead of sitting there, alone and miserable…imagine if I had pictured being surrounded by people very interested in me, who I was, where I was from and what I did, engaging in lively interesting conversation, while my favorite music played in the background, completely relaxed and calm, enjoying the life experience?
What if I had chosen to envision the above scenario, do you think, just maybe, that I would have been more open to attending the party?
The #1 Factor for House Flipping Success
Envision for just a moment, that you are able to change this type of perception not just when faced with a party choice…but when you are about to make your first house flipping deal?
Lets say that you have worked your buns off for three years in an effort to start your house flipping career and finally, after years, you have found the perfect home for purchase. Every sign is yelling yes. The price is absolutely right, the financing is spot on, you are sure of your expenses and you are sure about what you will be able to sell the property for.
Yet you imagine the deal crumbling beneath you, the home just sitting there with no interest from buyers, as you sit there, helpless, watching your profit deteriorate…
What are your prospects of success if you continue with this mental attitude?
Not unless you change the PERCEPTION of pain versus pleasure.
Be positive and picture the house selling for more than you expected, selling in under a month, with you walking away with a very tidy profit for you and your joint venture partners as well as your financers.
THIS is the house flipping mindset.
What this is not is just a wild assumption that everything will go right just because you PERCEIVE it will...no my friend, that is not the case at all. You need to have a specific strategy of steps that lessens the chance of a really awful deal - so that you can position yourself in a position to perceive value and awesome experiences instead of thinking of the pain.
Above all to acquire the house flipping mindset, and once you have mentally prepared be sure to then create a picture of success in your thoughts and think only of all the good things to come from the deal.
This is the house flipping mindset, the positive mental attitude, and the first critical step to house flipping success.
