Taking action (105)

Focus for the week

Ultimate action—not thinking about doing stuff, not planning things, just doing them. Eliminating the time between thought and action. The most common thing I hear about great and successful people is that they are all about action. Everything else they do is a means to the end goal of action. It is hard to give tips on how to do this, you simply have to take action yourself. Perhaps self-observation can help—next time you think about doing something, notice how long it takes you to get up and act. Keep reducing this time and you will be on your way.

What I’m Reading

I am still reading How to Start a Cult by Jody Raynsford. Frankly, it is a skimmable book. It could—and should—be 20 pages. There is good content inside but it is concentrated on 2-3 pages per chapter. The rest is fodder to increase the book’s page count to a sellable length. I am using what I am learning in this book to revamp the marketing material for this newsletter.

Have a great week :)
