Hi there,

Let’s talk about how easy it is to talk.

I know this from experience. You find something interesting and exciting, you can’t stop talking about it.

You talk about the book you're going to read, a course you're going to take, a new skill you’re going to learn, a strategy you wish to implement.

You even post about it on socials.

But days turn into weeks, and weeks into months. You find something new and inspiring to talk about. However, you either haven’t acted on your previous plans or you quit for some reason.

A few weeks back, I had to pause and tell myself, “You talk too much, do the work consistently first”. I have so many plans, but I haven’t been patient enough with any of them.

It’s exciting to share new plans and ideas. You can already picture the end result.

“I'll be much knowledgeable if I read this book.”

“I'll be much skilled if I take these courses.”

“I'll make more money if I implement this strategy.”

That's the thing about talking. It's easy and momentarily rewarding.

But, do you want to be someone who’s always sharing bright ideas with zero substance or track record?

Or, do you want to be someone who says and does? Probably even talks less, but does more.

You decide.

Leave theoretical and hypothetical scenarios and take a walk through the reality of your plans. Test the waters. How far can you go?

There's nothing wrong with talking, but if that's all you do, you'll keep getting dopamine hits from possibilities instead of living them out.

Don't just be a talker. Be a doer, an active learner, an action-taker.

Alright, that'll be all for now, until next time.

Something to think about: What's one thing you've talked about so much but have barely acted on?
