Summary

Simon continues the three-part series on achieving success in property investing by focusing on the importance of doing the right things. Building on the previous discussion about taking massive action, the episode highlights common pitfalls that aspiring investors often fall into, such as excessive time spent on social media, ineffective networking, and overindulging in free online content without taking action. Simon also discusses the value of creating content, actively engaging with new contacts at networking events, and implementing learned strategies rather than just accumulating knowledge.  KEY TAKEAWAYS While social media can provide inspiration, it's crucial to spend more time creating content and documenting your property journey rather than just consuming information. This proactive approach can attract potential partners and opportunities. Attend networking meetings with the intention of meeting new people. Collect contact details and schedule follow-up calls to build meaningful connections, rather than just collecting business cards without further engagement. It's important to gain knowledge, but at some point, you need to start implementing what you've learned. Successful investors often take action with the knowledge they have, rather than waiting to learn everything before making a move. Participating in paid training courses can provide a structured, step-by-step plan that simplifies the learning process. This can be more effective than sifting through overwhelming amounts of free online content. To achieve success in property investing, it's essential to combine massive action with the right strategies and maintain consistency. This three-part formula will lead to significant results in your property journey. BEST MOMENTS "You know you're wasting time if you're spending a huge amount of time consuming the information rather than creating the information." "Your network is your net worth. And a lot of people go to networking meetings. They collect lots of business cards, but they never really follow up." "The right stuff is to follow a proven plan which other people have followed and other people have got great results." "The most successful people I know are people who've come and done our training. They then just go and do it." "Investing in yourself is the very best investment you can make, followed very closely by obviously investing in property."
