Why a 3-Year Vision Works Best

Forget one-year resolutions and five-year dreams. Three years is the sweet spot—it’s enough time to create lasting change, without losing focus.

Write out your vision in the present tense, across four key areas:

  1. Health

  2. Finances

  3. Social life

  4. Personal enrichment

“It should give you goosebumps when you read it.”

Ask yourself:
“Last year was amazing because…”
And let your imagination run.


From Vision to Action

Your 3-year vision should guide:

  • Quarterly goals

  • Weekly habits

  • Daily routines

For example, to stay at 175 lbs and under 10% body fat, I focus on:

  • 3 strength workouts/week

  • 2+ bike rides/week

  • Waking up at 5 AM to meditate

My 2024 Real Estate Outlook

We’re mid-cycle in the 18.6-year real estate cycle, which means we’re in one of the strongest growth phases—even with high interest rates.

Here’s what I’m watching:

  • Over $6 trillion in capital is on the sidelines

  • Falling rates and election-year stimulus could fuel growth

  • Real estate with strong operating income will thrive

Top areas I’m focused on:

  • Class A apartments

  • Mobile Home Parks

  • Car Washes

  • Debt Funds
