Hey, this is Leo for Actualize.org, and today I want to talk about the number one reason why you're probably not succeeding or getting the kind of results that you want in your life.

So what is this reason?

Well, the reason is very simple.

You're not taking enough action.

You need to take more action.

And what's really bad about this problem is that not only are you

not taking enough action your brain is tricking you into thinking that you are

so you don't even realize what's going on here.

So let's talk about how this works.

You have to make sure that you take action on whatever it is that you're studying or researching

or trying to get in place in your life.

There's this tendency just to do a lot of mental masturbation about it.

You're going to read some books, you're going to watch some seminars, you're going to talk to some friends about it, you're going to journal about it, you're going to talk to some friends about it you're going to

journal about it you're going to do everything but the thing that you need to be

doing to get the results that you actually want and in the end the action

trumps everything else.

You can do all that other stuff, and I think that's awesome.

I think it's great to talk to a coach about what you want to do.

I think it's great to journal about what you want to do and visualize it,

do all the exercises. I love doing that stuff. I think

that stuff is important. But there's also this tendency to get sidetracked by that and to fall into this into this mind frame that doing that kind of stuff

doing the pre-planning phases doing the thinking is enough by itself and what happens is you get so drawn into that you invest too much
