The theme of this issue is Creative Investing, and the Think Realty team has put on our cre-

t the time of this writing, I was

attending the Think Realty Conference in Houston while sitting in

my home office. That’s the beauty of today — you can be anywhere, virtually! Regardless of “Zoom fatigue” there are many positives to how people are creatively converging and continuing to learn. You’ve heard the saying, there is no such thing as luck. And, that luck is merely preparation meets oppor- tunity. While those notions may hold some truth, one speaker at the Houston event shared his own ideas about luck: that YOU can create your own. Grant Cardone joined attendees in a Live video presentation where he shared stories of how some of his failures led to his success. His mind- set about creating luck boils down to three simple steps: 1  Show up. 2  Have a great attitude. 3  Pay attention – What are you looking for? This advice can be applied to many life situations, as well as to your real estate investment strategies.

ative caps this past year to bring you hybrid events

when no one else in this industry was doing it; gift certificates to share Think Realty education with someone you care about; RE-Focus, a monthly video call with our CEO Eddie Wilson; and so much more! This month’s cover person, Jessie Rodriguez knows something about creative investing. The former televi- sion personality and long-term real estate investor has navigated the industry for decades. Read his story on page 16. And Think Realty Resi- dent Expert, Glenn Stromberg talks about “the best kept secret in real estate investing.” Find out what it is on page 62. I hope you enjoy the investor sto- ries in this issue and learn how to dive into a new strategy, or how to get creative in a strategy you’ve been practicing for years. No matter your real estate investing story, YOU create it. Make it lucky. •

Keep Going!
