James---AWhat are you looking at?!!?!?!?

In our goal of becoming millionaires, often we become "active seekers". We're so thirsty for the secret, the ingredient, the key, the solution, the answer to wealth and success that we scavenge and hunt for something - anything - to help us get there.
We read every conceivable book on wealth. We attend every seminar. We listen to every audio program. We consult with mentors. We pay coaches. We do it ALL - and yet, after all these years, we're still in the exact same place we were in when we started. Far away from being rich. Far away from perceived happiness. Far away from our elusive goal of financial freedom.
And then we look at others. People who haven't read a single book about wealth, wouldn't dream of wasting a weekend by attending a seminar, only have music on their iPods instead of motivational speakers, and would never spend money on coaching. And yet, they've got money coming out of their asses. They're rich, they're powerful, and they're living an amazing life.
So what is it that differentiates these two groups - the ones that are a sponge for learning and get nowhere compared to those that couldn't care less about learning but make millions? Well, it's what you're looking at.
If you're obsessively immersing yourself in personal development to the extent that you're LEARNING more than you're DOING, then the message you're sending to the universe is: "I STILL DON'T KNOW ENOUGH TO BE RICH". And while you're suconsciously sending that message, you will never have enough. You will never be rich.
So I say let's take a step back. Let's take a break from the reading and the listening and the coaching and the mentoring. Let's just DO. Do, do, do, and do.
You DO know enough. You DO have enough talent. Stop telling yourself that you don't. Stop acting as if there's more to know. Have you noticed that you keep reading and listening to the same old tired stuff? It's just the same material continuously recycled and regurgitated in a different way.
Doing then learning from your doing is the most profound learning of all.
