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.

  • Avoid This Pricing Mistake Now

    I sometimes click on ads. It is interesting to see how they are set up. I like to study what they do. On first sight, the ad looked good. The offer is interesting. The price is decent. I always feel the urge to double-check prices. And again: You are being charged $97 upfront and then $497 monthly. There is a price increase by 500% at the end of month one. Again, I found a sneaky price. This is why people get frustrated by online gurus. They are awesome at sales and suck at customer…

    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.

  • More Content Won’t Save a Bad Offer

    One thing that comes up in my coaching calls a lot is that people want to just create more content. The client wishes to work more on content.Content creation definitely has a lot of value. I also enjoy it—the work. Yet creating more content only helps when we have a business in the booth. More content is not going to fix your offer problem. I have tried this many times—and it doesn’t work. I have grown a YouTube channel to be monetized to get the clicks to my offer. Because I was so focused…
