Are you going to go to war with yourself to be a better person, to work harder, to wake up earlier? These are all little battles in the war, right? What are you going to do in 2025? What is up, everybody? What is up to the Science of Flipping podcast? We are officially in 2025 as I record this. So excited to be moving into the new year. New directions, big changes, big momentum.

This is your day to start anew. It is a new chapter. It is a new page. It is a blank page that you can write on. This new year, at this very moment, as you are listening to this or watching this,

If you haven't checked it out, you should go to REILive.co.

We have collaborated on 10 deals in the last two weeks, 10 deals. Me and the members of REILive.co have collaborated on these deals even as of today. we got another contract signed by a seller on a beautiful duplex in Mobile, Alabama. Now that is the first two. And the last one is given change and given collaboration, who is gonna hold you accountable?

So between change, collaboration, and accountability, that is what this episode is about. That is what 2025 is about. So the first question you need to ask yourself is what is gonna change, okay? Are you doing what you need to be doing? And then, you know, first you need to understand what should you be doing?

And for many of you, you might be in different segments of your real estate investing journey. And so this episode isn't about telling you exactly what you should be doing, but I can tell you a great way to understand what you should be doing is looking at your bank account. looking at your bank account will quite literally describe what you should be doing and where you should be focusing.

And most of you probably are not where you want to be with your bank account. Then the first thing you need to be doing is focusing on revenue generating activities. That is the very first thing and probably the only thing you need to be doing out of the gate.

So revenue generating activities could be calling realtors, could be calling homeowners, door knocking, going through your CRM, calling the leads back on REILive.co. So if, again, you go to REILive.co, we had a member, Carol, literally she's been working this lead that we reviewed today to put in an offer. She's been working the lead for two months. This lead came in two months ago.

This lead came in two months ago.

Then there was a lead that came in that she's been working a year ago. And she says, tomorrow, we want to call this lead that she's been working for a year, or at least the lead came in a year ago. Now, what happened is, you know, after a couple back and forth with the seller, this seller lead fell off the face of the earth. Right.

Now, what happened is, you know, after a couple back and forth with the seller, this seller lead fell off the face of the earth. Right.

And literally as of new year's week reached back out to Carol because the seller changed her phone number, changed her phone, um, and was able to find nurture outreach via email, uh, to get back in contact with Carol. And so I say all that to say is, is maybe what you need to be doing is nurturing the lead that you already paid for that you already brought in.

The thing that you should be focusing on is revenue generating activity. Some of you might be doing deals with wholesalers. So how many wholesalers did you reach out to today? How many offers did you make? How many buyers did you bring to other wholesalers deals? right? So again, you need to understand what change needs to happen.
