90 Day Challenge Contest Winner
Posted by Dario Lorenzo in 90 day challenge, Blog on October 30, 2009
Just wanted to send out a “feel good” blog post today. On Monday night, we had our draw for the 90 Day Challenge contest.
The winner had their tuition fee waived 100%.
Unless you’ve just joined us… you should already know the 90 Day Challenge is one of the most amazing real estate mentorship I know about. (After all, I’m running it.) 
It’s where I take you by the hand, and show you step-by-step how to purchase a profitable rental property with none of your money, none of your credit and to top it all of… you will end up with $10,000 in cash or $25,000 in equity by the end of it.
All in ninety days. Read the rest of this entry »
Slow and Steady Wins the Race
Posted by Dario Lorenzo in Blog on October 17, 2009
My cousin, Stan (you might remember him at some of my live seminars)…he just ran a marathon in 3 hours and 23 minutes. That’s 12.43 kph, or 7.7 mph. It’s not bad. Not bad at all.
One reason he did so well was because I was there to pace him. I had with me a kilometer marker bracelet and a stopwatch.
If you don’t know what a kilometer marker bracelet is, take a look at the picture. It basically reminds you where and when you should be in the marathon in order to keep up.
It might be a little difficult to make out on the picture, but basically, it has something like this on it:
1 km – 0:04:44
3 km – 0:14:13
5 km – 0:23:41
And so on and so forth. At the halfway mark of 21 km, it reads 1:40:00.
So here’s what I did for Stan. I was beside him the entire marathon, making sure he was on pace. If he was coming in slow according to the bracelet, I told him to speed up. If he was going too fast, I asked him to slow down.
The bracelet was as much of a coach for Stan as I was.
And all this got me thinking about my training style. There’s a “old school” style of training out there where they practice fast-tempo intervals and track-work.
Fast-tempo intervals is where you run really, really fast for a few minutes, then slow completely down for another few minutes. Track work is more or less the same… except it’s based on distance.
Now the reason the veterans believe this style works is because you’re always pushing your own envelop. It’s supposed to build up your H2O capacity and lactic acid resistance. (Don’t worry if you have no idea what that means… I’ll tie this back into real estate in a moment.)
But there’s a catch with this old school training. They’re ALWAYS complaining about injuries. These formal training runners… get hurt a LOT.
Me? I’ve never been injured in my seventeen years of running. One hundred percent, completely injury free.
How’s that? Read the rest of this entry »
