Forget what you've been taught! Knowledge is NOT POWER!

from Growth Marriage

Today I want to teach you the most important lesson I know. I've written hundreds of thousands of words in my past emails and courses. I've probably said millions more words in my podcasts. And don't get me wrong, those lessons are all pretty good (if I do say so myself). But they don't mean jack squat without the lesson I teach in today's podcast. Knowledge is NOT power! Knowledge is the POTENTIAL of power. True power - power to change your life, your circumstances, your marriage, and your reality - comes through action. It's that simple. These emails that I send out on the regular, my podcast, my courses, my videos, the books you might be reading - they're all packed with insights. And gaining insights feels GOOD! It tickles that reward system in our brains. When I learn something particularly awesome, I always feel the need to pat myself on the back for how awesome I am. But being an insight-chaser doesn't magically change your life, or turn you into a better person! The magic comes from being an action-taker. Being an action-taker means you step outside your comfort zone to put into practice the things you're learning. It means you risk failure. It means you take chances. Insight-chasing almost always happens inside your comfort zone. Growth, progress, miracles, and results always happen OUTSIDE your comfort zone. So, my big question for you today is, "What's something you know you could be doing to make your life better… but you're not doing it?" And the followup, "When are you going to do it?!" Get committed today to turn your knowledge into power. Get out there and take action! Be an action-taker, not an insight-chaser. It will change your life. -Nate
