I'm Wearing Leather Pants In Arizona, What Else Can A Guy Do?
* He'd never taken singing lessons
* He'd never tried to play in a band or collaborate with musicians
* He'd never taken ANY step towards achieving his "dream" at all...
He auditioned in Arizona (it was 106 degrees that day), and his final statement was classic, he said:
...As if wearing leather pants is a substitute for years of developing the skills he needed to make his dream a reality.
Related Example: A bartender who'd moved to L.A. from Louisiana to become an actress told me once, "I never thought I'd still be working here after being in L.A. for a year..." (In other words, she thought she'd already be a successful actress)
When I asked her for details, she said she hadn't gotten any headshots done yet. In other words, she'd lived in L.A. for a year to pursue her acting dream and had never created the basic package that an actress would need to submit to try to get an audition...
But she was surprised she wasn't a successful actress yet!
It sounds ridiculous... But many people trying to start an online business are in the same boat:
* They read and post to the Warrior discussion forum
* They purchase training products they hope will inspire them
* They keep collecting information without taking action
If you're still on the sidelines stuck in "information overload" trying to start an online business, it's time to step up, pick a project (any project!), and take it through to completion.
Regardless of whether the first project you try is successful or not, the practical skills you'll learn from actually taking the steps to complete it will be invaluable... and it's the only way to turn the "dream" into reality.
I hope you got a little chuckle out of that "I'm wearing leather pants" quote like I did, it's easy to see other people's mistakes, harder to see our own. :-)
