This article really inspire me. It asks you to ACT and to STOP reading. We always have the excuse that there is a lot to learn to improve.

May I tell you a secret?

You will never know enough.

Here it’s the newsletter excerpt

I’m going to let you in on a little secret: people love consuming, but hate producing.  

The difference between producers and consumers

When you offer tons of free content like I do on Passive Panda, you begin notice how people love reading it. They love reading stories about people that are freelancing and earning thousands on the side.

They want to hear about negotiating hundreds of dollars off of their medical bills.

They want to know how to create passive income products.  In short, people love it when compelling, free content washes over them, but only a small percentage of them put that content into action.

I want you to be in that small percentage. The difference between people that produce versus people that consume is the pursuit of perfection. 

People who consume always want more information. They constantly tell themselves that they aren’t ready. They are convinced that they need to learn more before they can start. 

Conversely, people who spend their time producing have chosen to abandon perfection. They don’t care if they get it exactly right the first time.

They know that if they get something wrong, they can make an adjustment the next time. 

Accept that knowledge is not enough 

Are people that produce and create scared to start? Sure they are. They know that they don’t have all of the answers – but they produce anyway. No matter how much you read, there are always two options: 

Option 1: Read more to learn what you don’t know.

Option 2: Implement what you already know.

Even if you read until the end of your life, you will always have those two options. Which one do you think will yield larger results?  

The answer is always Option 2. You will never get results without taking action. Are you putting any of the information to use that you already have?  

You don’t need to be perfect to earn more

You don’t need to read more of find the perfect system. You just need to pick one system, take action, and stick with it. When I started, I used the Empire Building Kit from Chris Guillebeau. It helped keep me on track and gave me a lot of great information to think about. That’s just one example. You don’t need to use that product to get started. But you do need to get started.

You will never have perfect information. You don’t need to have all the answers. There is nothing you need to wait for. You can literally make progress towards earning more right now. Just get moving. Can you go out and negotiate a lower bill? If you freelance, can you figure out how to raise your rates? How can you take action on one thing right now that will help you earn more?
