Property is not a big boy’s game. Anyone can learn to do it and use low capital techniques to get started. Helping people with money find the deals they don’t have time to search for is a quick way to build a cash fund and make connections. Don´t fake it until you make it. Be honest about what you do, but always include the fact that you are a property investor in your identity, even if you are just getting started. How you see yourself massively impacts what you achieve.  Getting a mentor enables you to get out of your comfort zone and quickly make progress. Delete and block the haters on social media. Be yourself. Having a lack of confidence and being afraid of putting yourself out there is normal and can be overcome. BEST MOMENTS “You've just got to say they can do it. We can do it.” “Be genuine, be honest, be you.” “You've got to find a way to let go of imposter syndrome.” “If you can find the deal, you can absolutely find the money.” “For social media videos, it's just a matter of doing it. There are no magic answers.” “One of the first big steps. It's self-acceptance of, okay, the way I'm feeling is normal. “ LINKS FREE Airbnb Blueprint Coaching Community - https://www.facebook.com/groups/2342454789487705 EPISODE RESOURCES https://www.toastmasters.org HOST BIOS Alex & Pooh have built a portfolio of over 16 Serviced Accommodation Units and 10 Buy-To-Lets collectively over the last 5 years. -  This AirBnB Business has allowed each of them to create their own tailor-made ‘lifestyle by design.’ Pooh chose to escape the corporate life as an electrical engineer instead to spend his time at home with his young and growing family, and Alex likes to spend most of his time in sunny Spain enjoying his love for road cycling or even hiking in the Tramuntana mountain ranges.
