More knowledge is not the answer

ByJowi Witt

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.

  • New is better than better

    ByJowi Witt

    New is better than better Don’t try to beat your competition by being better than they are. Don’t try to win at their game. Be a new opportunity. Challenge the standard. Create something new. It’s not just the same old – just a bit better. It’s not good enough to make a little less. Find the new combination. Don’t just try to be better. Being better means you can easily be compared. You will not create mass momentum – you will be fighting a pricing war. Who can be the cheaper solution? It’s…

    Hey Reader, When I was starting out with my first ideas of what to do as a business— I was looking to help troubled teenagers. They felt hurt by the system and had a life of trouble. One idea was to start a farm where they could learn and feel a healthy routine and environment. This idea was undoubtedly expensive. Then I asked myself:What would make the issue go away? When I looked at all the troubled teens,many of them had a pattern. A lot of them had an absent father. This means either:…

    Hey Reader, Often I feel like I could skip ahead. Like I know what it’s about and then I fast forward. This newsletter today is an important reminder for myself as well. When my son was a bit younger, like last year, he was trying to walk. He was practicing one step at a time. Now, when we’re going to the park, he loves to run around. There are situations where he is less comfortable. So he slows down. He takes it one step at a time. Obviously, it doesn’t always work. He falls down and gets…
