"[In real estate], everybody's experience is different. You don't want to be going to 20 conferences a year and being in 10 masterminds… You have to have that medium slope of having a coach or two coaches, being in a mentorship or two, learning… having that right mindset, hanging out with people that have that right mindset like you, those same goals as you, that can work with you.
