Once you start focusing on income-producing activities, you will begin to see progress in the form of mistakes. When you start making phone calls, you will mess up your script and lose a sale. That is progress. Once you get your first appointment, you will walk the property and have no idea what to offer. That is progress. When you do finally make an offer, you will forget to close or make an offer that isn't accurate. That is progress. If you are continually moving forward and making mistakes, you are way ahead of the entrepreneur that spends weeks or months stuck in the planning phase. So many aspiring entrepreneurs know their script perfectly, but never make a cold call. It's about taking massive action.

Eventually, if you keep moving forward, the deals will come, and your life will change forever.
