How is your patience? Are you patiently waiting for just the right moment to get started building that incredible life you deserve? Now that happens to be the topic of this week's own your power clip, the power of patience. I just want to start today's clip making sure you're not using patience as an excuse not to take action, you know, on your dreams out of fear or analysis paralysis.

Now I've got my next two day online virtual bootcamp coming up May 22nd and 23rd and the tickets are right now only 97 dollars. Now I don't sell anything at these events just 18 hours of drinking through a fire hose about every aspect of the multi family business with nothing being sold and I've had thousands of people attend these events and the only complaint I've ever gotten is that the breaks are too short because I'm trying to pack so much information into those two days.

Now if you're ready to push forward and take action towards your dreams come join me. I promise you you'll be glad you did text the word multi family to 72345 or go to multi family virtual bootcamp.com. Again, that's text multi family to 72345. All right, let's get to it.

As I said, I'm going to talk today about the power of patience. Now patience is actually something I struggle with on a daily basis and I thought I had some semblance of patience until I had kids. That's when I really learned about it.

Now any parent knows what a three year old can do to test your resolve and and that's the most important piece of being patient. It's how you respond to the tests that life throws at you. It's how you react when you aren't the one in control.

And back to my three year old example, we all know who's in control then, right? Now patience is actually a powerful character trait that's a measure of your EQ, your emotional quotient.

Patience is not just waiting around for something to happen. It's how you act while you're waiting. For example, are you able to keep a good attitude while you wait on something or someone?

Can you sit back and watch as something or someone that you don't control takes its course? In business, being patient is a key to help you overcome the challenges that you're certainly going to face.

Now I love this quote from Benjamin Franklin. It's he that can have patience, can have what he will, meaning you can have whatever you want if you're just patient.

When you work hard and remain patient, good things will come to you. It's when you grind and get frustrated that things aren't happening fast enough that you can lose focus and push too hard.

In business, you need to have patience with your team, with your vendors, with your customers and your peers. In healthy relationships, you have to have patience because you can't control what someone else does.

And they probably won't do things the way you would. Patience is accepting that things can happen differently than you expect.

When you're a master of patience, you call the shots. Now, being patient doesn't mean that you ignore issues, but you address the issues and calmly wait for the changes to happen.

And remember this, nothing great happens overnight. Like I've always said, multi-family real estate is not a get rich quick scheme. It's a get super freaking wealthy overtime plan that requires you to use your head and not get caught up in your emotions, especially your emotions of impatience.

Anything worth having is worth the weight while you're working hard towards achieving it. Now, patience is not a passive emotion either. It requires a huge amount of focused effort and get this.

The less time you have, the more patience you need. It's counterintuitive. The more time you have on your hands, the more mistakes you're going to afford to make.

So get this now and work to become a master of patience. Your future self will be very grateful you did. And most importantly, you need to have patience with yourself.

As you work hard towards your goals, your biggest challenge will likely be your own response to challenges that pop up to you internally. Be patient. Let yourself off the hook once in a while and keep on working hard.

Now, here's a great tip for mastering that elusive art of patience. Meditate. Are you analytical ones? Hang with me here in a moment. The reason I'm bringing up meditation is because it's so effective with helping you develop patience.
