Tessa and I will be there

Week 6 Pre work: Did I operate in my chosen lane this week? - YES Where did I drift? - Frustrated with limitations of buy box What tempted me? - C (D) class neighborhoods, older buildings What reinforced clarity? - Decided I’m going to make small compromises but going to pick the best deal available. Buy Box may be too limiting but need to adhere as much as possible. Asking a coach (Tammy) helped. Decision Filter Audit: - Does it meet cashflow/AAR? - Is it BRRRR? - Is it free of major electrical/plumbing/water damage/termite issues? Capital Clarity Reflections: - Do I feel stable in conversations? (not really – need to know the numbers for sure – that will give confidence) - Do I over explain? – No - Did I hedge – No - Did I soften my standards? (Yes – accepting an investor below my 20k min) 90 Day Forward Plan: - Primary Lane – Multifamily, BRRRR, Buy and hold rentals - Weekly non-negotiables: 5hrs per week (1/day m-f) analyzing deals or making calls to people who can help me find properties - Capital Plan – (GET NUMBERS SOLID) - One growth edge I will address – procrastination Friction Inventory: - What still feels heavy? – The inability to find deals that match buybox. - What still feels unclear? - Not fully understanding the numbers. - What still feels emotionally charged – “which comes first?” – spinning in a confusing cycle of unknowns

Just stopped paying "peace tax" with my design business. My main guy and our work together has been disappointing clients and we've also been falling behind the AI/tech curve. I don't want to make my friend feel badly so I've gently nudged him about "stepping it up" for years. Finally, I'm bringing someone else in. Not replacing my friend or trampling his confidence but bringing in some fresh blood to take us to higher heights - before the business really starts dying.
