How many have done the ACRE home study course?

What was the greatest nugget you unearthed in the course?



For us newbies, do you feel completing the course will move you closer to making that first revenue purchase? (where has most of the confidence been built, regarding the process).



I would recommend the course to anyone seriously interested in taking action. Take action by, planning out the work (which should include completing the course at least twice within the first year), and then take more action by, working out the plan...diligently. DON"T EVER GIVE UP!

Failure is fueled by inactivity, and success is fueled by action. You have within you the ability to provide either...choose purposeful (high octane) action and you will fuel success.

Hi,



the course was a few years back for me to pick out ONE thing I really learned. I was very new to Real Estate investing as a whole so I was overwhelmed by basically all of it. What I really agree with is your advice to take action. And thinking about it now, the home study course FORCES you to take action by filling in the blanks. They don't just 'give' you the answers, you have to listen and study.



I found this odd when I first received it because I was expecting 'all the gold' in one spot, not to do any work. This concept changed my mindset and helped me advance to where I am today.

It seems to me there might be additional benefit of doing it at the meeting

Speaking for myself, I don't believe this to be true.



Activity and inactivity are both decisions. Either have the ability to create and destroy wealth.



Best regards.

Thank you for the reply. For clarity, my statement was directed towards a general principal of progress. I do uphold that balance is critical. The intent of my comment is that I do not look at success as a destination ("I have arrived"... I am where I am), as the term is far to subjective.

If I create (action) a vision and materialize the vision (hardcopy the thought)...Moving towards the vision will require additional action. However I do agree that once the ship has set sail, there may be times that require calm reflection (perceived inactivity) so as to assess success, and to not veer from the original path decided.



Action for the sake of action is not what I meant to propose (potentially detrimental).

Taking action based on ones vision (as compared to waiting for desired change to just happen and doing nothing) I see this as being critical to experience the journey of success, however that may look to each individual.



Thanks again for your comment.
