ave you noticed the sports teams and individuals that have the best winning records are the ones
with the best coaches? If a professional team does not have a winning record who do they
replace first? Of course, it’s the Coach! Real Estate investing is a business where a single
mistake can cost you thousands of dollars and for that
reason alone the most important member of your
investment team is your coach and mentor.
Another value your coach will bring to the table that is
essential to your success is the element of
accountability. In order to become really successful in
Real estate investing it is imperative that you form
successful habits quickly. Legendary football coach,
Vince Lombardi said, “Winning is a habit. Unfortunately
so is losing.”
A good coach will help you put together a business plan
and give you a list of things to do to help ensure your
success. But you can only become successful if you
stay on the right track and make doing the right things a
habit. A good coach will hold your feet to the fire so to
speak.
