Life has a way of throwing curveballs, especially when you’re on a mission to change your financial future through real estate investing. Feeling stuck or scared? You’re not alone, and it’s perfectly okay to feel that way. Today, I want to share some insights on how to keep growing even when your current circumstances seem overwhelming and you’re feeling like your faith in it working out is slipping.
1. Acknowledge Your Feelings, But Don’t Let Them Rule You
It’s essential to recognize and accept your feelings of fear and uncertainty. Ignoring them won’t make them disappear. Instead, face them head-on. Write down what exactly is making you scared or anxious. Is it a lack of funds, fear of failure, or the unknown? Basically, accepting and naming your fears is the first step in conquering them.
2. Shift Your Mindset to Abundance
Believing in abundance is crucial, especially when you’re not hitting your goals. Start by reframing your thoughts. Instead of focusing on what you lack, focus on what you have and what you’re capable of achieving.
Remember, money is just energy! By aligning your mindset with abundance, you open yourself up to new opportunities.
Daily affirmations and visualization techniques can help reinforce this mindset. “I am able to attract the abundance I see others have.” “If they can do it, I am more than capable.” Two things I said very often in the beginning of my career.
Next, you will want to change your feelings around what you think of money. Clear your history with money. Money responds to your energy. Money is energy and vibration. Gabby Bernstein said, “I’m willing to see things differently.”
Ask yourself, is it true that money is the root of all evil? Is it true that you can’t become wealthy because you grew up the way you did? Challenge these limiting beliefs and open your mind to new possibilities.
3. Take Small, Consistent Steps
Growth doesn’t come from giant leaps. Growth comes from the small, consistent steps that lead to significant progress. Set daily, achievable targets that bring you closer to your larger objectives. Whether it’s reading a chapter of an investing book, attending a webinar, or connecting with a seller, these small actions compound over time.
4. Find Strength in Community
One of the best ways to overcome fear and doubt is by surrounding yourself with like-minded individuals. Our REIW community is a safe haven where you can share your struggles, seek advice, and find inspiration. Don’t hesitate to reach out and connect with others who understand what you’re going through. You’re not alone on this journey.
5. Get Clear on Why You Want to Make Money
The clearer you are, the easier you will attract money. How will it help you? Your family? Your friends? Your community?
“Money helps me help _____!”
In my case, money helps me help YOU. Money helps me reach more people, I can empower more women, and I can change more lives with the more people I can reach.
When you get clear on what you want, the inspired action steps will come.
6. Learn from Setbacks
Every successful investor has faced setbacks. What sets them apart is their ability to learn and grow from these experiences. When you encounter obstacles, analyze what went wrong and how you can improve. Remember, every failure is a stepping stone to success.
7. Stay Educated and Informed
Knowledge is power, especially in the world of real estate investing. Keep educating yourself about market trends, investment strategies, and financial management. Attend workshops, and masterclasses, and read widely. The more you know, the better equipped you’ll be to navigate through tough times.
8. Use Affirmations to Attract More Money
Affirmations can trick your mind into matching the energy of money and attracting more. They bring you into a state of belief, and your confidence will grow. Here are a few affirmations to get you started:
● I am willing to be guided.
● I am worthy of the money I desire.
● I attract money from all avenues and opportunities.
● Despite my past, I am worthy of making money to become financially free and wealthy.
● Money loves me.
Growing in the face of scary circumstances is about mindset, community, and taking consistent action. Embrace your fears, shift your mindset to one of abundance, take small steps every day toward your goals, and enjoy the journey. One day you’ll look back and realize you had to go through everything you went through to become your highest self. You’re not alone on this journey. Our REIW community is here to support you every step of the way.
