The most important outcome once you have established your mantra is that it then becomes easier to focus on what is essential in pursuing your goal and saying“ no” to everything else. If your mantra is to buy one, 1 bed 1 bath unit each year, and a realtor calls you with a 2 bed 2 bath unit, you can save the realtor and yourself time by immediately saying no and reminding him / her that you are only pursuing 1 bed units.
Every time a video pops up on your social feed telling you that cemeteries or go-kart tracks are the hottest new real estate investment, you can keep scrolling knowing you already have a plan in place.
This sounds like a very simplistic approach but some of the most profitable companies in the world got there by having a simplistic core vision and only focusing and responding to opportunities that fit that core vision.
The essentialist approach is best summed up by the world-famous prima ballerina, Anna Pavlova who once said:“ To follow, without halt, one aim: There is the secret to success.” Happy investing. ___________________________________________________________________
