More knowledge is not the answer

I do like reading books. There is something about reading a book on the couch that is relaxing. It is a lot slower to read a book than to watch 10 YouTube videos in 2x speed.

We live in an era of endless information.
We can find an answer to every question in 1000 videos.
Yet we keep looking for the golden shard to build our sensation.
The one missing piece that will make the rest fall into place.

I am also a knowledge junkie.
I like to be informed before I take action.
I have spent years researching, looking up all the new strategies.

The only thing that will move us forward is action.
Not finding a better idea.
Not one plan, one mission, one step at a time.
That is all that matters.

There are only three steps that in fact matter:

  1. The Struggling Hero (aka. Ideal Client)
  2. The Family Flows (aka. Business Model)
  3. The Revenue Routine (aka. to-do list)

When you have clarity on your struggling hero and the family flows in place, growing your business becomes a habit on running your revenue routine.

When you’re now writing your daily newsletter, you’ll notice where you get stuck.
Now is the moment where learning actually matters.

This is the spot of knowledge deficit.
It unlocks only when you take action and dare to operate outside your comfort zone.

  • Why Your To-Do List Might Be Holding You Back

    Our to-do list feels endless. There are so many things we could do. Some are more important than others. I recently listened to a podcast. They were chatting about this one guy being paid a lot to be an advisor. Yet he didn’t do much. He said that his job was not to add to the tasks in the business, but to make sure they didn’t do anything that hindered the business profits. I have also experienced the same thing. The real difference between success and failure is to do the right things and…

    Over the last few months, I’ve done a lot of coaching. Different men. Different stories. But one thing keeps showing up — again and again. Overwhelm. Not just “I’m busy” overwhelm.Not “too many emails” overwhelm. The kind that drains your confidence and clouds your calling. And here’s what I’ve noticed: Most overwhelm doesn’t come from too much to do. It comes from confusion or a lack of clarity.

  • The Productivity Lie I Believed for 5 Years

    For the last few years I’ve read so many productivity books. Watched tons of videos trying to figure out how can I get more done in my 24 hours than others. This is the core driver of productivity types: Getting more done with the time they have. It’s all about efficiency. There is one major flaw with productivity that took me 5 years to understand:It doesn’t matter how fast I run, if I’m running in the wrong direction. In the productivity space there is a lot of clutter about tactics that…

  • Clear beats Clever

    Clear beats Clever I have designed 30 websites, launched 60 products. The biggest problem I had was to make myself clear. I played around with titles and the feel of words. Introducing my own language. The feedback I often got was: “I don’t understand what you do.” I just wasn’t clear. My big goal was to be clever. So that’s what I aimed for. The solution to all of it is to write clear. When people can understand you and have a feeling that you speak to them – it changes the game. You want…
