Small Consistent Actions Can Move Mountains... of Snow

Hello everyone, it's Jack with another Tip Tuesday.

But before I do I'm going to direct you to reimastermind.net and check out the podcast. I've had some amazing guests providing a ton of value to our real estate investing community. Check them out at reimastermind.net.

Today I was reminded yet again how powerful small consistent actions add up to huge results.

We live in Minnesota and are finally getting a taste of spring. Unfortunately, this also means we have quite a bit of snowmelt. This can be a problem if there is a lot of drifting near a property... and this is exactly the situation at my personal house.

This means I need to move the snow away from the house so the melting snow doesn't find itself in the basement. So, I went to the garage... took out the biggest shovel I could find, and started shoveling the snow away from the foundation.

You can imagine what soon happened. I wore out... quickly. What did I accomplish? A single path of snow was removed. It sure didn't look like enough to match the effort.

I needed to recover so I went back into the house. Took care of a few things... and then noticed my wife was outside shoveling... and she had moved A LOT of snow. Far more than I had accomplished.

How did she pull this off?

She had opted for one of the smallest shovels. One she could handle. One where she could easily lift. She was out there shoveling for quite a bit longer but she moved a heck of a lot more snow.

But that's my point. It took her quite a bit more time but it didn't tire her out as quickly. She chipped away at that snowdrift with that small shovel and eventually moved a mountain of snow.

The same can be said for real estate investing. Consistency wins over big efforts. Taking those small steps every single day towards a goal accomplishes the end result and typically with a lot less daily effort.

Have you been wondering how to get started in Real Estate Investing? This is what I want you to do. Define your goal. What do you want to accomplish? Find a house for flipping? Find a rental property?

Starting today, reallocate 30 minutes of Netflix bingeing and use that time to work towards that goal. Just 30 minutes each day. Taking that small step towards that goal. Review properties and run numbers off of a Zillow search, go grab that local phonebook and start making some cold calls, organize and get that next marketing campaign organized and sent.

Making that 30-minute commitment each day will allow you to move that mountain.

If you found any value in this tip would you do me a quick favor? Forward it on to one of your fellow investors. I would really appreciate it. Remember to check out reimastermind.net and we'll see you next time.
