I met a man named Bill not too long ago.
Bill is around 75 years old.
Bill has a wealth of self help knowledge.
He's read all the greats; Napoleon Hill, George S Clason, Stephen Covey, Og Mandino, Paulo Coelho and listened to Tony Robbins, Brian Tracy, Jim Rohn and many, many others.
We talked for hours about Self Development, Law of Attraction, Pain vs. Pleasure, etc.
I connected with Bill. We shared the same passion. We wanted to better our lives.
During our conversation, Bill dropped a bombshell on me.
He said, "One day, I'm going to be rich!"
I was shocked!
I thought, "Dude, you're like 75 years old! You better get cracking!"
So I asked Bill his plan. He said, "I'm waiting for the right opportunity to present itself."
Unfortunately, this was before I was in Network Marketing, so I didn't have anything to present to him, but it really got me thinking.
It actually made me very depressed. I connected so well with Bill because I was exactly like him!
I've studied Self Development for over half my life. I've read 100s of books, listened to countless audios and bought endless programs.
Yet, I was exactly like Bill. "One day, I was going to be rich!"
One day! Tomorrow! Next Week! Next Month! Next Year!
And the years went by. And I did nothing.
I would tell myself, this next book or audio would be the key! It's right there! It's gonna happen!
And the years went by.
Until I met Bill.
Bill and I possessed all this knowledge, but neither one of us did anything with it. We assumed that because we had the knowledge, that the world would magically provide for us.
We never made the decision to take action to use what we knew.
I think that's a trap that a lot of people fall into. They think just by reading a book or listening to a CD or watching a video, their lives are going to change.
Unfortunately it doesn't work like that. You have to put what you learn to use. The Universe isn't going to give you something for nothing.
That's the key to unlock the secret. Although, it's not much of a secret if you'd just do what all the Self Help Gurus tell you to do.
I lost touch with Bill shortly after that, so I can't continue with his story, but I can let you know a little more about mine.
Since that conversation I've changed practically every aspect of my life. Physically, Emotionally, Financially and Spiritually.
How did I do it? I put into action all those things I've learned. I've taken massive action. I've pushed myself beyond what I thought I could do.
It hasn't been easy, and I've been scared to death many days. I've even wanted to quit at times, many times. But I won't. Not this time.
Am I where I want to be? No. But every day I move closer. Every day I get stronger. I'm becoming the person I want to be. I'm just beginning to live the life I've dreamed of.
So let me ask you.... Do you have the knowledge? Are you putting it to use? Are you taking action and moving yourself in the direction you need to go?
Or are you like Bill? Waiting for an opportunity to reveal itself to you? Sitting on all that knowledge, waiting….
You know, there are 2 types of people in the world.
Those who dream the dream, and those who live the dream.
Which one are you?
To Your Success!
