Yes, it seems that a lot of people are hitting the same road blog of having too much information and not being able to process it fast enough to take action with it.

It may also be though that the distractions are more inside of our mind. What I mean is that listening for two hours to great minds after taking action on our plan may not necessarily be taking us away from it. Perhaps when we don’t take action daily as we should on a regular basis we then see the 2 hours every 7 to 10 days as a big loss of time.

At least for me it is sometimes that way. I can waste time reading e-mails, browsing etc. instead of taking action and then I may resent the 2 hours the listening to the great minds may take.

Everybody’s situation is different and I’m not saying that you don’t devote all of your available time to taking action.

What I said above does apply to me and I know that if I spend my time effectively the time necessary to pay attention to the extraordinary minds can be a very profitable relaxing time that injects more energy into the execution of my plans.

And most times it does.

It seems everyone is hitting the same road block.

Whilst all this information is surely valuable, it takes up so much time and distracts you from your own plan and your own goals.

Keep in touch,

It’s so nice to hear from you again. I know what it’s like to cope with deferent time zones. Having the recordings is good.

As for producing for yourself I could say exactly the same thing about me. I need to do more of that. Watching others doing it is good too as long as what is learned is applied.

For me the hardest part is to start on a project. What usually holds me back is the belief that I don’t have all the information needed and also not having all the tools.

The key is to keep moving forward even if it’s by minute steps.

Thanks for noticing the new look of my blog. I meant to improve it for some time and finally yesterday I did it.

Vance

Sounds as if it was quite interesting.I joined but as most of these seminars are US time and middle of the night here I rely on recordings.

I am of the same mind as the previous commentators now.

It is way past the time for me to really get focussed and produce for myself rather than watching other people doing it!

BTW your blog is looking really good now!

Thanks for commenting. The question of time seems to be a recurring theme with a lot of people. We are very eager to learn and spend so much time learning that there is not enough time for implementing it.

Taking a pause and concentrating more on the doing side is the way to go. I was going to join David’s webinar too but now I see that I’d better concentrate on what I need to do more. I may watch one or two of his webinars but even though it’s tempting like almost everything else it will do no good unless implemented.

I’ll stick with the Extraordinary Minds for the next few weeks at least and then I’ll reevaluate again.

Jumping from one thing to another and implementing very little of anything is proven not to work. It may be OK to do it for a while to get an idea of what is out there but the results are near zero.

Talk soon,
Vance

It seems that a lot of us are on the same page, trying to refocus. Information overload is what is creeping into our lives.

I think that we’ll sort it out and hopefully soon. There is simply too much information out there that is valuable but no single individual can process it all.

It is much better to choose only as much as we can digest and act on that. Time has no mercy and just keeps on ticking.

I’ll give you a call on Skype sometime, thanks for commenting.

Vance

I too have decided to stop buying any more courses etc. as I now feel i’ve completey lost my focus. I’ve decided to give Dave Walkers Webinar a go simply because in my opinion his stuff s of such a high quality, but apart form his course, no more for the time being. The Extraordinary minds sounds good, just wish I had the time for all this stuff.

Also my “old life” as a programmer keeps pulling me back, and until I can start making significant income from internet marketing, I don’t think I can justify spending anymore money on new products.

Give us a call on Skype sometime buddy,

Yes, I’m taking my own advice and it is quite painful.

The reason is that I would really love to see all the seminars that are constantly coming on stream but that would take up all my time and I still wouldn’t be able to see all of them.

I will stick with the League of Extraordinary Minds but have decided to stop subscribing to the Founders Club. A lot of great stuff there but time is at a premium and right now it will be better for me to take action on what I already know works.

I feel like even if I stopped all academic learning and just act on what I’ve learned already I’d sill not have enough time to do as much as I feel needs to be done.

The key is balance. Some days I just work ridiculously long hours at the expense of sleep and that of course is defeating the purpose.
The next day my productivity suffers.

Well, as long as we keep getting better and aware of the areas that need improvement, I think we’ll do OK.

Vance

I hadn’t heard of any of that panel before either, but that’s because they are from many different fields that I’m not really aware of.

But they certainly know their stuff, and Rich & Jay definitely know the right questions to ask.

Now going into your discussion with Rod, I totally agree with you Vance.

Taking action on what we are learning is certainly the important part… If that means taking a break from webinars for a while, in order to start taking action, sticking to our plan, and making some money, then that is what we should do.

I hope you are taking your own advice and have started taking some action?.. From what you’ve said it sounds like you have.

Take care

Paul.
