I’m not a lawyer, nor do I pretend to be one, but I’ve found through my own research and personal experience that a certain amount of self-awareness and self-reliance are important to building a solid foundation for a real estate investment.
I feel that these two things are related. Self-awareness and self-reliance are the two reasons for my own successful real estate investments, but that they have such broad application is a good reason for others to consider using these skills.
What you have to know is that self-awareness is really just a fancy word for self-monitoring. I’ve learned that I need to be aware of my emotions, thoughts, and sensations. I need to be aware of my surroundings, and I need to pay attention to my actions.
Self-monitoring can help make you aware of your surroundings, your thoughts, and your actions, which is exactly what it was intended to do. I think it is more important to develop the ability to recognize and control your emotions than to develop the ability to consciously control our surroundings. Self-awareness is a good, but not a necessary skill.
This is a very important point to consider when you’re working with people in real estate. A simple self-awareness test would be to ask people to take off their shoes, sit quietly for a few minutes, and then tell you what they think they heard. If you still can’t figure out what they heard, you may have a problem.
The first step to self-awareness is to acknowledge that you have a problem. We are all neurotypicals (no, I’m not), which means that our emotions are as much a part of our biology as are our brain structures. We have emotions, we have emotions, we have emotions. The problem is that sometimes, these emotions are so strong that they overwhelm our conscious awareness. The problem is when these strong emotions happen without our being aware of it.
The problem is when the thoughts or actions of an individual are so strong that they are so out of control that they overwhelm the conscious awareness of the person. An example is what I was talking about with the aforementioned Colt. If everyone started to think exactly the same way he does, then he would not be able to keep it together.
For instance, I had a client who was a single mom and had just had a baby. She talked to me about how she would think it’s awful that she was having to breastfeed her child and how she’d think about killing her baby for it. She had a strong need to feed her baby and her emotions were so strong.
A lot of the people who get into real estate are single mothers, but that doesn’t mean they’re not aware of the issues. While you might not even be aware of the issues with a child at a young age, you may still have a strong need to feed your child. You still have the same feelings you had when you were your baby’s age.
If you’re going to breastfeed your child, you’d better be aware of the fact that you’re doing a lot of damage to the mother’s health. Breastfeeding your child puts unnecessary stress on that breast. Having a baby puts unnecessary stress on that mother, too. Not only does this stress cause her to miss work or get sick, but it also causes her to give her baby food that has high levels of hormones that can cause serious health problems.
