Summary: <br> I want typos, and you should too. Typos - literal or metaphorical ones - mean that you are taking action on your dreams and you are going out and making life happen. // “It had long since come to my attention that people of accomplishment rarely sat back and let things happen to them. They went out and happened to things.” - Leonardo Da Vinci<br> <br> EPISODE #67<br> I WANT TYPOS<br> <br> As a writer, you might think I’m crazy by saying that I want typos. But I do. You should too, let me explain why. Typos, or any other imperfection on our creative work, are a sign that we are putting ourselves out there. If you wait for everything to be perfect, you will never take any action on putting yourself out there.<br> <br> I WANTED TO TALK ABOUT ACTION TODAY BECAUSE I MENTIONED IT LAST WEEK IN EPISODE #66 AS THE SINGLE MOST DEFINING FACTOR THAT DISTINGUISHES ME / IT IS THE KEY TO MY SUCCESS, MY CONFIDENCE, MY HAPPINESS<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> TYPOS REPRESENT ACTION<br> <br> Napoleon Hill wrote “action is the real measure of intelligence”<br> <br> <br> “It had long since come to my attention that people of accomplishment rarely sat back and let things happen to them. They went out and happened to things.” Leonardo Da Vinci<br> <br> <br> ACTION IS HOW WE LIVE OUT WHO WE ARE.<br> <br> <br> You can’t be who you are until you act who you are.<br> Stop waiting to become you want to be -> it takes action.<br> The key to taking action is being willing to make mistakes along the way….make TYPOS.<br> <br> <br> HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN YOU NEED TO PUT IT OUT THERE? / HOW CAN YOU BREAK FREE FROM PERFECTIONISM?<br> Steven Pressfield wrote,<br> <br> “The more fear we feel about a specific enterprise, the more certain we can be that the enterprise is important to us and to the growth of our soul.”<br> SO, HOW DO YOU TAKE MORE ACTION?<br> Most people struggle immensely with taking full action. Just the other day I was having a conversation with a good friend of mine who I am working with on a project. He openly told me that he’s fabulous at getting the first 95% of anything done and then terribly catastrophic at getting the last 5% completed. So what it is about the 5%? Is that 5% really that much harder? Well, no, it’s not. That 5% represents the fear that comes with doing anything that’s worthwhile.<br> <br> <br> <br> Decide to start taking more action<br> Create a plan<br> Keep your daily plan short (three things)<br> Know that small steps count – give yourself credit for them<br> START<br> Be accountable to yourself<br> Be accountable to others<br> Remember you don’t have to have all the answers<br> Know that it’s not how you feel; it’s what you do<br> Remember action builds confidence<br> An action is a habit; it’s hard at first and then becomes easier over time.<br> <br> What if you could say that you’re someone who gets ’s stuff done?
