Well, Real Estate Entrepreneurs, what do you think this blog is going to be about. It is about how I feel today and how I feel about life. I have been writing a book for years about real estate investment and entrepreneurship and today I realize that there are no shortcuts. I was offered a position as BIC for a franchise and it just wasnt something that I was interested in. Why, because it wasnt for me, I am an entrepreneur not an employee. Same "E" different life.

I believe wholeheartedly in manifestation and we are manifesting a great life ahead.

I believe that entrepreneurship is like breathing. Not like unconscious breathing but like conscious sport breathing. We all know how to breathe, well we hope so. When you are able to breathe consciously you are able to give yourself so much more in life. You can work harder, longer and have more energy for everything that you are doing. In entrepreneurship, when you are on a role, doesnt everything come easier to you? How do you stay in that universal flow? By practicing over and over? Much like your conscious breathing?

Well, that is my two cents for today and hopefully you consider what I have to say. Also, try this, only breathe out of your nose for the next couple of days. If you cant do it, come back and donate a dollar to the blog. If you can do it, comment on if you were able to do more with more oxygen in your blood and if you feel better than you did before you were consciously breathing.

Hello Real Estate Entrepreneurs!!!!! Today, I just wanted to talk a bit about how active my wife and I have been. She has just started at the gym and I am in my third month of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Being active like this is a huge part of your life. If you are not out being active these days, you're wrong. It is just as everyone says, you have more energy and to tell you the truth, I am most excited to keep working out. Here is a you tube video of my instructor. ( the guy is super nice, I didnt realize how much of a badass he is) I cant believe I am learning how to do this stuff! Ha, Maybe in 10-15 years! Anyways, you need to be out and moving. Sitting on a computer does nothing but hurt you and we are becoming more and more successful everyday. Audrey is doing pilates, working out, kickboxing, and yoga. We are having a blast! We are both more exciting, more confident and much happier! How long has it been since you and your spouse have been happy about life! Especially in this recession, do some working out, get a cheap gym membership, or go for a walk. There is so much to be thankful for and most of it is free. Right now I want you to make a promise to me, say this, " Joey, I will make a commitment to be more active everyday. I will make an effort to be a better spouse. I will enjoy everyday of my life." You never know what day will be your last. On an exit note, check out Renato submit this guy with a rear naked choke in the cage! Good Luck entrepreneurs

If you are interested in training under Renato, give me a call for more information 843-425-0771 Joey and the first month is free.

So, I am sitting here watching Extreme Resorts on TV and watching all of these wealthy people have as much fun as they possibly can. I sit and grind my teeth in awe and in anger as I am sure that these people dont try harder than I do. Then I changed the channel and this dumb blonde is talking about her 8000 sq ft house and the bathroom bigger than one of my condos. I am happy for these people because someone in their line had to put in the work for them to be able to live this life. Great job to that person.

I hate these people, I constantly try to acknowledge that behind all of these rich people that someone had to put in the work for them but I can not stand these people. I rack my brain everyday about trying to give my family a better life and all these people worry about is if their lap dogs are going to have enough space in their 8000 sq ft mansions.

I was watching the news this morning and the lady said that the recession has started to recover and what that means to people with money is that they need to be finding ways to capitalize and what it means to people without money "working people" is nothing. Just by the way she said it, you can tell that she was handed that position because her Dad knows someone. Well, okay I am not sure that was the case but if I had to bet, I would.

I love capitalism and i love that I am able to run my own business, but I just wish I had a bit of backing. I wish I could have just a hand every once in a while. Not a handout that these silver spoon brats believe they are entitled to, just a " hey, let me watch the kids and here's a couple of bucks so you can take the wife out, you deserve it!" Instead, I fired my Dad and made him move out of my house!

Well, enough of the pity party, I just wish that these people that think they are entitled to something realized how much of a benefit their parents are to them.

I just want everyone to know that we realize the pains of running your own business and we understand why you subject yourself to it. We understand that you could live a mediocre life with a mediocre job and be ok, but ok isnt good enough for us. One day we will be those wealthy bastards at the worlds largest resorts or sleeping in snow igloos (you know you are rich when you pay to sleep in a snow igloo resort). Our children will have the stupid lap dogs, and they will have the same feelings of self entitlement. We will be able to look at how much they are given and know that we made that possible. We will know that we broke the mold of low and middle class, and we will look at each other and we will know who made it and who it was given too. We will carry an insurmountable level of respect for entrepreneurs. When we make it, if I see you and we will know each other, Ill buy you a beer!

Thanks and good luck real estate entrepreneurs!

Hello Real Estate Entrepreneurs! SO I was trying to figure out a way to watch some of the fights on UFC 101 last night, I wanted Ken Flo to get his ass beat by BJ Penn! Which he did, so that was great.

I am writing this though because of the dream I had last night. This dream was absolutely amazing. Everything that I wanted to happen, happened in my dream last night. What do you think that means?

I let an old man move into one of my apartments the other day. He told me he would fix stuff and cut the grass and he actually did the things he said he was going to in the dream. The tenants all paid on time and I was making consistent money on the property. My little girls listened and didnt upset me and my wife was always happy.

This dreamland was amazing!!!!

I made as much money as I wanted and worked as little as I wanted, spending almost every moment with my family. This dream was so vivid that I awoke with a smile from ear to ear on my face. So I guess the question is how do I move from this life of half of the things working all of the time to all of the things working all of the time. Was the dream a sign that I am on the right track? I have never been able to imagine success so vividly before.

Let me know what you think

Okay, so I know that is a different title than we are used to but I just need to express how pertinent and undoubted belief in the flow of the universe and abundance really is. Recently, I was questioning the direction of the business and told myself if a much needed refinance is supposed to happen it will. I have a 70+% debt to income ratio as I am sure most of you do as we write everything off. I got approved for a 70% refinance on a property I own. The appraisal came back too low as everything is in this economy. The bank still approved the refi and the world makes sense again.

This happens to me all of the time. The last notable situation was a couple of years ago when nothing was going my way and out of the blue in quite a time of despair, I received an unexpected IRS check for $3000.00. Why does it happen to me? Does this happen to you?

Well, I will tell you it is because I am doing what I am meant to do right now. Are you? Are you putting out max effort to achieve your dreams?

Business is slow and we are in the worst recession we will ever see in our lives, hopefully, but someone out there keeps me on the right track and keeps me going.

I dont know what it is but I like it and am thankful for it.
