The Big Breakthrough

Goal Setting and Positivity with Brett Iwanowicz


Listen Later

Brett saw real estate as an outlet to escape the rat race.  He was inspired by seeing million-dollar homes through his painting business.  Brett worked with a biz partner and learned a lot about management, and other facets but didn't learn about acquisitions

Goal for 2018 was to add 5 units to his portfolio this year. That goal grew to 15 units then 30 units.

Brett owns a property management company and painting company. He realized he was working too hard and asked himself what he needed to do to free time to focus on his real estate investments. He read The One Thing and decided to set the goal of having $100,000 in liquidity within 5 years. Realized that he could accomplish that immediately by selling one of his rental properties. That gave him the time/money to network, focus on BrettBuysRocHouses.com, and work on projects that have more meaning for him.

BrettBuysRocHouses.com – lead-generating tool Brett uses to acquire real estate.

You need to be comfortable being uncomfortable.

How did Brett add so many units to his portfolio in this year?

He started with personal development. Asked "How can I add value to others before I ask for something?"

He used networking and partnerships to acquire real estate faster. Also, he's purchasing properties at the right price so he's able to find money to finance the acquisitions.

Brett's Big Breakthrough was when he was worn out from too much work. His health was suffering from his pace of life. He sees real estate as a tool to give him more time to focus on things that bring more meaning to his life.

You have to build yourself up with positive words. If you're constantly tearing yourself down you'll never get to where you want to be.

The hardest thing in Brett's career was having a negative mindset and not knowing how to process his emotions and turn them into something positive.  If you know how to deal with adversity you'll be better equipped to unlock your potential.

Goal: Within 5 years Brett wanted to have enough passive income to invest back in the community. Someone asked him why he couldn't do that now. He didn't have a good reason why not.  He's taking his positive mindset, real estate expertise, and desire to impact the community and using them to help others grow, learn, and improve their lives.

Current goal setting: Immediate (things to work on daily), Short term (1-2 years), Long term (3-5 years)

Routines/Habits: Mind, Heart, Health
