I need help with making progress

First of all hi everyone! This is my first time to this forum, today I just finished reading the book ‘0-130 properties in 3.5 years’. I am on a journey to become financially free by the time I am 30, I know I can do it I think my mindset is all in check, I have read countless books and alot of it comes naturally so its very ingrained in my head lol.

So a few days ago I decided to make a decision to invest in property. I have spent the last 2 years studying stock market investing but I feel like I am slowly fading away from it, not able to learn anything new or apply the practices in real scenarios. Property is alot more straight forward for me, I want to do both if I can.

So in property investing in general I have read 3 books so far,watched some videos and that. I have a couple questions, how can I make maximum progress in studying real estate and what are some practices I can do daily?

My goals in Real estate are to achieve 10k passive income each month (After expenses and that) That’s alot of properties, not just that, to gain that many properties I assume I would need a massive loan. Though you might be thinking what is my strategy to achieve my goal?

I have been thinking and studying about this, but in a nutshell it goes like this:

*I get to the point where I have made my first purchase

*Since I am living with parents and expenses are pretty low I would use as much money as I can to pay off that loan even faster and while I am paying off that loan the equity is building so is the growth of the property I can then get another loan to invest in another property(I assume this will be after 2 years or so).

* I look for areas where properties have high growth, high growth will lead me to bigger equity building up over time thus using it to expand my property portfolio.

* I look for houses that are low grade but in a higher grade area, then I will use renovation to increase the profit of the home, this also makes the equity higher.

There are some more stuff, but that is some of the most important.

I don’t go to university working a part time job as of now, but will look full time if I get a loan (that’s if the banks let me, or whatever lender). Another question I have is how many books or whatever should I read before I get started in the process of choosing an investment? I BADLY want a mentor who could guide me on my journey, I feel like that is the best way to learn. But that leads me to my second question how do I find these people? I read this other book on property investing which says find people who have achieved what you want and get in contact with them. This seems pretty hard to do, but I will still attempt it I just need to know how.

I am soon looking to get a job in Real Estate sales do you think this is a good way to find someone who has achieved what I want to achieve?

I get told often that I don’t seem like the type of person to put in the work or in other words I am lazy. But I don’t know what work is required, learning by myself is a bit of a struggle.

Sorry if I seem all over the place there’s just alot to say, my life as of now is messy and I am one confused person just looking for some guidance. Thanks.
