If your stress includes only day to day tasks such as driving in traffic, you're going to live a small life. On the other hand if you're doing ultra marathons or buying real estate and growing past your comfort zone, your life is going to be bigger. As Nathan put it you have to “level up your life”. 

As syndiactors, we try to go out to other markets where there are good value ideals, less competition and have more opportunities. We don’t always go to the primary markets, instead we go into Class B or Class C, where we can buy property for a fraction of the price you would get in the DFW or Jacksonville area. “We might be looking at smaller or tertiary markets that are outside of the known comfort zone”.
