The Most Overrated And Wrong Advice Given On Here:

Hey warriors,
This is my first "real" thread since getting back from a 4 week vacation, so I thought it might be nice to challenge you and push you out of your comfort zone...
TAKE ACTION!
How often do you see this?
Information overload? TAKE ACTION!
Shiny object syndrome? TAKE ACTION!
The gurus are there to rip you off! TAKE ACTION!
WSO are a rip off! TAKE ACTION!
None of the WSO's I bought ever made me any money! TAKE ACTION!
Almost ever thread, you see this advice being dished out as if it is the panacea to everyone's problems.
Well guess what? It ain't!
It's a half-truth. Just like the old saying that if you want to be successful then you must have an education, or that money is the root of all evil.
All of them half-truths. They have some merit, but are not 100% accurate.
Just like: Practice makes perfect... another half-truth. It's perfect practise that makes perfect, stoopid.
The same goes with taking action. And I should know because I can share with you a list a long as a roll of toilet paper of "to do's"and action steps...
Which cost me a ton of time and money.
Is the light starting to flicker yet?
You see, it's not merely taking action.. it's taking the correct action that will bring you results.
No pint having a to do list that takes you no further than you were yesterday, is there?
Heck, it's hard enough battling through procrastination and negative beliefs... and then when we take action - it's the wrong blood y action. Oh for goodness sake, I did it and I'm sure most of you have probably done it at some stage as well... if not right now.
So what's my point?
quite simply that you have to plan things out. You need a medium term vision and a short term vision.
Ask yourself: what single piece of action can I do today that will bring me success or closer to my goal.
If you want me to dumb it down further... only focus on money-making activities and leave the rest until later.
Define exactly what it is that you want to achieve today. Then take exact and specific action that will help you accomplish it... nothing else.
In my case, it comes down to identifying the core activities of my business: traffic, products and selling.
The allocating time to each on a regular basis... and not get distracted. I then identify what specific actions I need for each activity... then apply them.
This means that on any given moment, I am taking the right kind of action. It means that I have thought long and hard about my business, I have a vision and I have a plan to achieve that vision.
Planning is the key and focus is the answer. If a product or system isn't for you, then cut your losses and move on.
Look, we all examine different opportunities at different times. And frankly, I'd say that 95% of the stuff I have tried has failed miserably. But the 5% has made me a lot of money.
Now some of this may be different to what you usually hear, but perhaps it needs to be said. We all have strengths and weaknesses. And bluntly, it's up to the individual to identify these and then leverage them for success. Sadly, not may will do this. They blame the product or the system or whatever.
Know thyself, friend and know thy limits... know thy risk tolerance... understand why you are doing this. Then find a system or method that fits in with your capabilities. If it doesn't then accept the lesson and learn from it... then move on to the next until you find your place.
Master your first skill then master the next and so on.
So, yes... take action, but please make sure it's the right action.
And not just action for the sake of action... don't be busy for the sake of being busy.
