Far too many people fail to accomplish their dreams because they never take action. You may have heard the term “analysis paralysis” before. You feel that you need to be completely prepared before you take the first step. You spend time figuring out how to get the right data so that you can make your plan. Loral Langemeier calls it “planning to plan”. I’ve done this. I like spreadsheets, so I’ve wasted endless hours rearranging data on my spreadsheets and never end up taking action. The thing is that you never feel you are prepared to go for something big. Price Pritchett in his book, You2, says that “getting ready is, quite frankly, a stalling tactic, an act of anxiety, a con game you’re working on yourself.”

If there is something you want to do then you need to go for it and figure out the details as you go. Otherwise, you never will. Mr. Pritchett says “you’ll discover, once underway, that you know more than you know you know.” If you think back over goals you’ve accomplished in the past you will probably realize that this is true.

Check out You2 by Price Pritchett. It’s a quick read with good info.
