    Thanks for the inspiration @GuitarManDan! The nice cushy jobs are hard to leave...like you said, it feels kind of terrifying, but will be worth it in the long run. It's funny how people think successful people get lucky. Congrats on your first 5 figure month!

    This is excellent advice. Anyone who wants to achieve something great should look at themselves for 1) proof of why they CAN, and 2) examples of things to improve on. Doing things to grow on your own that no one forces you to do is a big indicator in my opinion.

    Sounds like debugging a bug of people-arent-buying. (I'm a programmer so most of my job is debugging.) Sitting around the dinner table these last few days with my family, my sister and brother in law have told many surgery stories as they're both surgeons. These same ideas apply to fixing a...

    Wait are you serious that’s one of the main things? Actually, I am starting to believe this. I'm no genius but I can definitely be my own boss. If that's the main "hard" thing, when people say "oh it's so hard", I should have quit years ago

    Good point, I like the idea of having at least _some_ income before I quit. But I definitely won't be blowing my savings on gambling and alcohol. How about I give myself half of 2019 to get that income going. Quit My Job July 1st, 2019. Its going on the calendar ;)

    :rofl::rofl::rofl: I've literally worked from a hammock on the beach (well, very close to it). Its part of my drive to actually "build a business that runs without you logging in precariously perched on a rock or diving board." Travel later + passive business > travel now + no business.

    Haha, I'd still build the business, it would just take longer. I have a very flexible and comfortable location-independent j.o.b. so its not the worst. Nope, why do you ask?

    This just mini blew my mind. What an interesting perspective that other countries don't have healthcare tied to being an employee. Honestly, the health care part is what I'm most concerned about. I'll look more into this one. Ha! I can see that working :rofl: Its not a fear of doing things...

    Yes (when I'm motivated...and yes I'm motivated), and yes (sometimes too much). @minivanman I appreciate the mindset-focused answer :thumbsup: I'd still love to hear more about the logistics.

    I was the same way...for a whole year. While I was abroad all I wanted to do was get started with real estate. Eventually I realized the people who already know what they're doing in REI had sold their assets and are waiting for the market to come down. So for now, I'm starting a different...

    @MoreValue double and triple check that you want to buy right now. We're at the top of the market. Are you able to wait a year or so? Things might be better then. (AKA, numbers might make more sense.)

    Also, @JohnFuture, realize, that YOU'RE NOT THAT IMPORTANT. You're not that special. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Ab81gCsplQ Other people DON'T and WON'T spend their mental energy judging you when they see you do a thing that you are worried they will judge you for. THEY DON'T CARE...

    How to become a leader?

    Yes, this. Listen, listen, listen, then (maybe) talk. I've found that if a person speaks a thought/story, then stops, that's an easy time to say something. To agree, to give your thoughts, to tell your story of a similar time. But what if you don't? What if you let that moment, that silence...
