Analysis is Not Action

15 Jun

Howdy!  Hope the day is treating you well.  Thanks for taking the time to stop by.

I’ve been on a jag lately of studying what successful people do in various areas that are of interest to me.  I’ve slogged through a bunch of books, hours upon hours of videos, and reams of status updates.  In doing that, I’ve come face to face with one of my own major stumbling blocks.

You know the one I mean: Paralysis by analysis.

One of the most common themes that gets repeated by all the motivational speakers, business gurus, success coaches and life educators is this -

Get into action!

Do something. Anything!

It almost does not matter what the action is as long as you follow three simple steps.

  1. Take action
  2. Check your results
  3. Refine your action

As near as I can tell that is the golden path to abundance in whatever realm of life you’d like to improve.

That is what worked for me for weight loss.  It’s also what worked for getting to the level of martial arts skill I enjoy.

It’s also what got me to finish the book I have been meaning to write for 4 years and am near to releasing in a big way.

Now, I am not silly enough to think there is only one solution in life.  So, what have you found to be your biggest challenges in life, and how have you gone about facing them?  What’s worked?  What hasn’t?  I’d love to know.  Leave me a comment!

Get into action!

Cheers!

PS – I am working on a series on how to blog.  All the tricks and tips I have found along the way that help me produce and keep me in line with my authenticity.  I’d like to hear if you have tried blogging and what you found to be the major roadblocks.  I’d also like to know whether  a text or video blog would be most useful.  Please take a moment to leave a comment.  I’d really appreciate it!
