I was lately negotiating on a quite large character conversion/reno project for an connect of mine. He had substantial experience with rezoning and land operation but not so much with real discussion and reorganize of the buildings. He was so 'pumped up' about the possible project that I wondered how much in depth investigate he had conducted, as there seemed to be some great obstacles to conquer before getting the project to the final stage. What I realized was that I needed a better scheme and a better team to rely on. I then went out and spoke with several of my colleagues that particular in these sorts of projects. I then saw how I could 'bomb proof' my next deal, maximize my time, money and make more profit- all with less grey hairs.
We've all been detained back by skeletons before. Until we learn from, and destroy them, they will keep dominating us. I'm sure that you've met people that are so frightened to make a choice for fear of being wrong or getting 'burned again'. I cringe to think about all the other 'little voices', apprehensions and fears that we let hold us back.
I always try to examine any excuses I may have and check them for validity. Move forward with knowledge and seize the opportunity.
