Shifting Your Career Mindset from a Ladder to a Portfolio

For decades we’ve heard that to succeed in a career, we each need to climb the ladder. That’s outdated thinking! Instead of focusing on your career as a set of steps, consider the value of cultivating a portfolio.

A portfolio demonstrates experience and success with real examples of your work and progress as you learn and grow. For real estate investing, your portfolio includes the deals you’ve managed and the types of investments you’ve completed.

To find success, you no longer need to wait patiently on your turn at the next step on the ladder. You can begin today with a lucrative and fulfilling career in real estate investing.

You deserve a career that offers more than a paycheck. With real estate investing, you determine the level of growth and size of your business. For example, you can begin as a side gig or plunge in full-time. Either way, you gain control over your schedule.

• Financial freedom
• Flexible schedule
• Gain confidence
• Determine your level of growth
• Decide the types of deals and who you work with
• Mental freedom to set your mindsets and attitude
• Freedom from dependence on an employer
• Establish passive income

Real estate investing opens the door to new opportunities. You expand your way of thinking and view of work. Plus, a career in real estate investing doesn’t require specific degrees, levels of experience, or job titles.

To build a real estate investing business, you only need passion and an understanding of what works. You can begin anytime by connecting to lending options and starting your first deal. Then, over time, you’ll build a portfolio of investments and a network within the industry.

Before you know it, you’ll have a vibrant portfolio!

The best way to build your portfolio is with action. Set a goal for your first real estate investment and develop a plan to achieve that goal. Once you close your first deal, you have a portfolio.

Build on your success with a plan, training, and networking.

• Develop a business plan
• Invest in training to learn more about the business
• Join a network of investors
• Foster a positive mindset
• Set investment goals
• Initiate your first investment

You can succeed and find financial security without a traditional career. A portfolio mindset means you build your credibility and future one deal at a time.
