Flip This Wholesaler

I pretty much wasted the whole day today spinning my wheels. I have a really big problem with managing my time. I have all day, every day, to look for deals, but when it comes down to it, I probably waste 3/4 of my day doing things that are not going to result in me getting a deal. I know there are people out there who are working full time jobs, or raising families, who are getting more done than I am. I really need to manage my time better, and learn to work smarter. I don't know what my problem is sometimes.

Tomorrow I have to call the seller of the deal that is supposed to close this week and tell her it is not going to happen. I had a small glimmer of hope that it would still go this week, but I got the call today saying that it isn't going to happen. This lady is in a desperate situation, and is counting on this deal to close this week. I feel sick to my stomach. I told her that it would be closed this week, and now I am going to have to tell her she has to wait. This is not something I take lightly. I know what she is going through (been there twice), and that she is counting on the closing to be this week. It sucks. She may not agree to extend the contract (and I wouldn't blame her at all if she didn't), but I don't think she has any other choice. To me, telling someone you are going to do something, and then not following through , is inexcusable.
